Modelling of material behaviour for Inconel 718 superalloy using experimental data

In this paper parameters of the Johnson-Cook (J-C) constitutive material model were predicted more accurately based on the static and dynamic material tests and mathematical modelling of relevant response surfaces using specially developed Matlab scripts. Experimental tests were performed under strain rates of 10-3 and 101 1/s and the temperature ranging from the ambient up to 700°C. As a result, a set of mathematical models which fit the experimental data was determined. The experimentally-derived constitutive models were implemented into FEM-based simulations of real machining processes of Inconel 718.
