Self-consistent estimates for nonlinear viscoelastic polycrystals: a simplified resolution of the affine formulation adapted to monotonic loading paths
Résumé
A simplified resolution of the self-consistent model for non-linear viscoelastic polycrystals is presented. The formulation is based on an affine linearization of the constitutive relations as recently proposed by Masson and Zaoui [4], which adapts Hill's conception of self-consistent modelling to nonlinear viscoelastic behaviours. The approximation of the inverse Laplace-Carson transform introduced here, which is believed to be well adapted to monotonic loading paths, makes the resolution of the whole self-consistent problem possible in the direct time space. This results in a largely simplified numerical algorithm. Comparisons with the predictions of a model treating accurately the inverse Laplace-Carson transform are presented, and very good results are obtained for creep of FCC and HCP polycrystals.
