The theory of strain localization is reviewed with reference both to local necking in sheet
metal forming processes and to more general three dimensional shear band localizations …

Localized necking in thin metal sheets is analyzed by using the M–K-model approach, and
the effect of a number of different non-proportional strain paths prior to the occurrence flow …

The effect of void nucleation is incorporated in a recently proposed material model that
accounts for a combination of kinematic hardening and isotropic hardening of a porous …

The continuum mechanics framework for analyzing plastic flow localization is reviewed. The
prediction of the localization of deformation into shear bands is sensitive to the constitutive …

B y using a simplified constitutive model of a pointed vertex on subsequent yield loci,

The purpose of this study is to determine analytically the orientations of localized necks
occurring in sheet metal forming processes, and obtain the corresponding forming limit …

Two modes of plastic flow localization commonly occur in the ductile fracture of structural
metals undergoing damage and failure by the mechanism involving void nucleation, growth …

Strain localization is one of the main sources of failure in sheet forming processes. State of
the art forming limit curves allow the prediction of localization for linear strain paths but fall …

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 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 …
