Abstract: | In this paper, plastic instabilities of elasto–plastic tubes subject to internal pressure are discussed. For diffuse necking prediction, the classical intrinsic criteria for diffuse necking are accurate for long cylindrical tubes. However, for short tubes, geometric changes are important, and the intrinsic criteria become insufficient. For this purpose, a new diffuse necking criteria is proposed including geometric effects in the prediction.On the other hand, for the local necking prediction, the Hill's criterion is not accurate for short tubes, due to the biaxial stretching. As an alternative, a local necking criterion based on a modified Hill's assumption for localized necking is proposed. The numerical calculations carried out for different tube dimensions, explains the geometrical effects on the localization of deformations for pressurized tubes, and improves the accuracy of the proposed criteria. |
