    Modelling of plastic anisotropy requires the definition of stress potentials (coinciding with the yield criteria in case of the associated flow rules) or, alternatively, plastic strain-rate potentials. The latter approach has several advantages whenever material parameters are determined by means of texture measurements and crystal plasticity simulations. This paper deals with a phenomenological description of anisotropy in elastoplastic rate-insensitive models, by using strain-rate potentials. A fully implicit time integration algorithm is developed in this framework and implemented in a static-implicit finite element code. Algorithmic details are discussed, including the derivation of the consistent (algorithmic) tangent modulus and the numerical treatment of the yield condition. Typical sheet-forming applications are simulated with the proposed implementation, using the recent non-quadratic strain-rate potential Srp2004-18p. Numerical simulations are carried out for materials that exhibit strong plastic anisotropy. The numerical results confirm that the presented algorithm exhibits the same generality, robustness, accuracy, and time-efficiency as state-of-the-art yield-criterion-based algorithms.International audienceModelling of plastic anisotropy requires the definition of stress potentials (coinciding with the yield criteria in case of the associated flow rules) or, alternatively, plastic strain-rate potentials.

    PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION OF ADVANCED PLASTIC POTENTIALS AND IMPACT ON PLASTIC ANISOTROPY PREDICTION

    Get PDF
    In the work presented in this paper, several strain rate potentials are examined in order to analyze their ability to model the initial stress and strain anisotropy of several orthotropic sheet materials. Classical quadratic and more advanced non-quadratic strain rate potentials are investigated in the case of FCC and BCC polycrystals. Different identifications procedures are proposed, which are taking into account the crystallographic texture and/or a set of mechanical test data in the determination of the material parameters.International audienceIn the work presented in this paper, several strain rate potentials are examined in order to analyze their ability to model the initial stress and strain anisotropy of several orthotropic sheet materials.

    Prediction of forming limit strains under strain-path changes: Application of an anisotropic model based on texture and dislocation structure

    No full text
    Strain-path changes strongly influence the forming limit:strains of sheet metals. The value of the limit strains is greatly affected by material-related effects such as initial anisotropy, transient hardening, Bauschinger effect and cross hardening. A model which can describe these mechanical behaviours has been developed on the physical basis of texture and dislocation structure , and applied in conjunction with the Marciniak-Kuczynski analysis of the forming limit strains. The results are represented in forming limit diagrams (FLDs) in which the forming limit strains are indicated. The calculation successfully predicts some of the experimental tendencies which cannot be reproduced by conventional phenomenological models. Furthermore, the model has been used to discuss the effects of texture and dislocation structure on the FLDs. Especially, it is suggested that transient hardening caused by the latent part of the persistent dislocation structure significantly reduces the forming limit strain for a strain-path change from equi-biaxial stretching to uniaxial tension.
