This paper evaluates the performance of four Ohno–Wang type constitutive models in predicting ratcheting responses of medium carbon steel S45C for a set of axial/torsional loading paths. Suggestions are also made for further modification. The four models are the Ohno–Wang model, the McDowell model, the Jiang–Sehitoglu model and the AbdelKarim–Ohno model. It is shown that the Ohno–Wang model and the McDowell model overestimate the multiaxial ratcheting. Whereas, the Jiang–Sehitoglu model yields good predictions for most loading conditions used in this study with an appropriate modification of the dynamic recovery term. The AbdelKarim–Ohno model gives acceptable predictions for all considered multiaxial conditions when used with an evolution function for μ_i, but gives poor predictions of uniaxial ratcheting if the parameter μ_i is determined from a multiaxial ratcheting response. A new modified …
