Abstract: | Closure of a spherical voids in a steel slab under plane-strain deformation was investigated using the rigidplastic finite-element method. Variations in the major and minor axes of a void from finite element analysis of a void model were related to the minimum principal strain and hydrostatic stress from finite element analysis of a non-void model. The correlation curves were obtained and a method using these curves to predict the void closure progress was proposed. The method was successfully applied to deformation processes such as simple compression, forging and rolling. Since hydrostatic stress also influenced void closure, the effective strain by itself was not sufficiently capable of predicting void closure. However, the effective strain was used to predict void closure for a specific process because it reached about 0.7 in compression or forging and about 0.78 during rolling as the void completely closed. |
