In this paper, the evolution of the plastic anisotropy of stainless steel 316L samples is
investigated under proportional loading paths using a customized cruciform specimen. The …

The hole expansion test is an appropriate evaluation method for assessing the formability of
automotive parts, where fracture prediction using simulated localized thickness is crucial …

To facilitate the processing and manufacturing of heat-treatable aluminum alloy
components, the initial temper of the billet material is usually adjusted to the as-quenched …

The hole expansion formability of W-tempered aluminum 7075 sheet, which is prepared by
solution heat treatment and rapid cooling, is investigated comparatively with the peak aged …

Global formability and local formability are critical in different metal forming processes. Edge
cracking, controlled by the local formability, is a dominant factor limiting the application of …

In this study, the plastic deformation behavior at a large strain range, as well as the ductile
damage and fracture of aluminum alloy 2024-O materials, were investigated under quasi …

Flange wrinkling is often seen in deep-drawing process when the applied blankholding
force is too small. This paper investigates the plastic wrinkling of flange under a constant …

The application of interrupted die motion during the deformation process in a servo press
cycle is known to enhance the forming limit of metallic materials. This observation is …

The notch is an inevitable geometric characteristic in thin-walled structural components.
However, the anisotropy in the notch deformation behavior of metal sheets has not been …

Abstract The kinetics of Portevin-Le Chatelier (PLC) bands in the hole-expansion of a
circular hole using a flat-headed punch are investigated for a solid-solution heat-treated …
