Abstract

Inconel 718 is a high strength, precipitation-hardenable Ni-Fe-Cr-based superalloys, mostly used in nuclear and aerospace applications in extreme working conditions. In this work, hot deformation behavior of the Inconel 718 alloy sheet has been investigated at 700°C under multiaxial loading conditions. The forming behavior has been analyzed along three distinct deformation modes (biaxial stretch, plane strain, and uniaxial stress regions) and results were quantified using a Gurson-Tvergaard-Needleman (GTN) damage model. Firstly, uniaxial tensile tests have been performed at 700ºC and quasi-static strain rates (0.0001- 0.01 s -1) to identify the material constants of the damage model. Further, the standard Nakazima test has been conducted to describe the forming and fracture behavior along three deformation modes. Further, Marciniak-Kuczynski model using a GTN damage model with Barlat'89 anisotropic yield criteria have been used for theoretical prediction of failure strains for Inconel 718 alloy. This model shown a good prediction capability in terms of fracture strains. Subsequently, Finite element (FE) analysis of Nakazima test coupled with plastic and damage modeling has been carried out to predict failure behavior of the Inconel alloy. The FE predicted results showed good agreement with the experimental test in predicting the fracture behavior of the alloy. The presented results give a basis of optimal hot forming process of Inconel 718 alloy.
