| Popis: | In this work, we propose a constitutive model for the finite-strain, macroscopic response of porous viscoplastic solids, accounting for deformation-induced changes in the size, shape and distribution of the voids. The model makes use of consistent homogenization estimates obtained by the “iterated variational linear comparison” procedure of Agoras and Ponte Castaneda (2013) to characterize both the instantaneous effective response of the porous material and the evolution of the underlying microstructure. The proposed model applies for general, three-dimensional loading conditions and can be implemented numerically for use in standard FEM codes. We also investigate the interplay between the evolution of the microstructure and the macroscopic stress–strain response, in the context of displacement-controlled, plane strain loading (bi-axial straining) of initially isotropic, porous, rigid-plastic materials with power-law hardening. We focus on the effect of strain triaxiality, and consider both extensional and contractile loading conditions leading to porosity growth and collapse, respectively. For both types of loadings, it is found that the macroscopic behavior of the material exhibits an initial hardening regime followed by a softening regime at sufficiently large strains. Consistent with earlier models and experimental results, the softening regime for extensional loadings is a consequence of porosity growth. On the other hand, the softening behavior predicted for contractile loadings is found to be a consequence of void collapse, i.e., of rapid changes in the average shape of the pores leading to crack-like shapes. For both types of loadings, the transition from hardening to softening in the macroscopic response can be identified with the onset of macroscopic strain localization. The associated critical conditions at the onset of localization are determined as a function of the strain triaxiality. The type of localization band ranges from dilatational to compaction bands as the bi-axial straining varies from uniaxial extension to uniaxial contraction. |
