Abstract The purpose of this work is to predict and analyze the formability twinning – induced plasticity steels through Marciniak-Kuczynski (MK) theory with emphasis on solutions for improving prediction results. selected constitutive equations involve Yld00-2d Barlat et al. (2003) plane stress yield function, Swift strain–hardening power law dislocation density based model proposed by Kim (20...

In this article, the effect of different yield functions on prediction of forming limit curve (FLC) for aluminum sheet is studied. Due to importance of FLC in sheet metal forming, concentration on effective parameters must be considered exactly in order to have better theoretical prediction comparing experimental results. Yield function is one of the factors which are improved by adding new coe...

The forming limit diagrams (FLDs) characterizing the formability of sheet metals are usually obtained by applying proportional loadings. Nevertheless, industrial processes involve strain path changes that can modify limit-strain values. In addition, for strongly anisotropic such as Zn-Cu-Ti zinc alloy, large differences in curves (FLCs) with respect to rolling direction observed. present work, ...
