Sheet metal experiences various stress states during plastic deformation, including uniaxial
compression, shear, uniaxial, plane strain and equibiaxial tension, but the existing yield …

In this study, the ductile fracture of the alloy metal is analyzed. First, the key factors affecting
the initiation of ductile fracture are investigated. Then, a new uncoupled ductile fracture …

It is challenging to precisely model the complicated plastic deformation of metals, including
anisotropy in strength and plastic deformation, strength differential effect, anisotropic …

Abstract The Hall-Petch slope k represents the magnitude of grain boundary strengthening.
For the first time, a strong orientation dependence of the k for pure titanium (Ti) is reported in …

This paper deals with a modified anisotropic stress-state-dependent plastic-damage
continuum model incorporating combined hardening and softening rules to predict the …

The stress state-dependent plastic anisotropy of sheet metals has drawn significant
attention. Nevertheless, existing phenomenological plasticity models limitedly capture the …

An accurate description of yield surface is essential for the high-fidelity numerical analyses
of sheet metal forming processes. In this work, a simple coupling of anisotropic quadratic …

Yield surfaces evolve depending on loading directions (anisotropic hardening) and stress
states (differential hardening) during plastic deformation of sheet metals. A new analytical …
