The effect of the cube texture on the initiation of localized necking is studied numerically.
The forming limit diagram (FLD) is constructed based on crystal plasticity theory in …

The effect on forming-limit diagrams (FLD) of an initial cube texture and its evolution was
studied using the well-known M–K approach in conjunction with a viscoplastic crystal …

A mesoscopic approach for constructing a forming limit diagram (FLD) is developed. The
approach is based on the concept of a unit cell. The unit cell is macroscopically infinitely …

Localized necking is one of the most frequently observed failure mechanisms in sheet
forming processes. The forming limit diagram (FLD) characterizes the sheet metal …

Recent work on sheet metal formability had shown that the position of forming limit diagrams
(FLDs) in punch stretching is higher than that in in-plane stretching because of a strain …

Abstract The Marciniak-Kuczynski (MK) technique, which describes the progressive
evolution of an initial imperfection and the subsequent necking of the sheet metal, has been …

The forming limit diagram (FLD) is a useful concept for characterizing the formability of sheet
metal. The ability to accurately predict the FLD for a given material has been shown to …

A concise review of different proposed phenomenological equations that describe the
behavior of sheet metals and their influence on theoretical forming limits is presented. Also …

The Marciniak–Kuczynski (MK) forming limit model is extended in order to predict localized
necking in sheet metal forming operations in which Through-Thickness Shear (TTS), also …

A polycrystal plasticity model is used to conduct parametric studies of forming limit diagrams
(FLD) and to compare with experimental data. The Marcinak and Kuczynski [13] method is …
