Master Thesis Topic: Adaption of Chaboche material model for describing the Visco-plastic material behavior of Sintered SilverDescription: The objective of the Master thesis is to derive a material model which describes the Visco-plastic material behavior ( temperature and strain rate dependency) of Sintered Silver. An experimental program at different temperatures and strain rates along with relaxation tests are all carried out. A flat dog-bone specimen is used for the tests. The gained data is to be analyzed and fitted to the material model. The constitutive model adopted is a Chaboche non-linear kinematic hardening model along with Exponential visco-hardening model which captures the rate dependent effects associated with viscoplasticity.
