摘要：Multi-level approach has been used to simulate the thermal deformation of aluminium alloy at different temperature and strain rate. The crystal plasticity model is extended in the finite element method and the thermal behaviour is integrated in the constitutive equations. Moreover, the damage evolution is also reflected in the simulation using continuum damage mechanics model. Thus, the void evolution and thermal effect could both be shown in the simulation. A new shear strain rate model is constructed with the thermal activated mechanism to describe the rate dependent behaviours during tensile test. The thermal parameters are determined in a fitting test of representative volume element to compare with the experimental data. The results prove that the mechanical tensile behaviour of 5052 aluminium alloy could be well described at different temperatures. The damage evolution process is expressed by the stress concentration and strain concentration in the finite element simulation, which are also confirmed by the experiments.
