High temperature materials
Viscoplastic material models

Main activities

  • Numerical simulation of the mechanical high-temperature behavior of various metallic materials, in particular high-temperature steels, nickel-based alloys as well as titanium, aluminum and magnesium alloys
  • Simulation and evaluation of crack propagation behavior under steady-state and transient high-temperature loading conditions
  • Linking of fracture mechanics methods with fatigue strength methods for the evaluation of crack initiation with a focus on component notches
  • Provision of enhanced, unified viscoplastic constitutive material models
