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 Δ EVPSC model is a general elasto-visco-plastic self-consistent constitutive formalism
based on a Homogeneous Effective Medium (HEM) approach that accounts explicitly for …

Comprehensive experimental characterization and numerical prediction have been
performed to investigate the thermal effects on the anisotropic flow behavior of two high …

This study aims to investigate the numerical prediction of forming limits by the Marciniak–
Kuczynski localization criterion coupled with an evolving non-associated plasticity model …

The present study focuses on the development of a relevant numerical tool for predicting the
onset of localized necking in polycrystalline aggregates. The latter are assumed to be …

A viscoplastic self-consistent crystal plasticity model was employed to study the formability of
two magnesium sheet alloys, ie, AZ31 and ZE10 at 200° C. The flow stress-strain curves …

This investigation focuses on the Marciniak and Kuczynski, visco-plastic, self-consistent
(VPSC) prediction of the forming-limit curves for AA6061-T4 aluminum, cold-rolled steel and …

A finite strain micromechanical-based constitutive model is developed for multi-phase
polycrystal to characterize the interplay among strain hardening, texture evolution, and …

We've introduced a new technique leveraging artificial intelligence to determine in-plane
forming limit strains in St14 sheet metals. A neural-fuzzy AI system was devised to predict …

Two recently proposed elasto-visco-plastic self-consistent (EVPSC) models, based on
solving for stress or stress increment, are discussed, and their results are compared with the …
