Abstract
A constitutive model considering the effects of strain hardening, strain rate hardening, thermal softening and material damage softening is suggested. In order to take the effect of material damage into account, a strain softening term is added in Johnson–Cook flow stress law. The model can predict the overall deformation process of metallic materials at high strain rates and a simple way is provided to determine the coefficients of softening term.
