Abstract: The role of dilute small particles on the development of strain localization under uniaxial tension has been studied by finite element analysis using a plane stress model with two small hard ...

Abstract: A new finite element analysis based on rate dependent crystal plasticity theory has been developed to investigate the effects of second-phase particles on the initiation and propagation of ...

Abstract: The constitutive behavior of both direct-chill cast (DC) and continuous cast (CC) AA5754 sheet materials has been investigated up to large strains using a modified shear test. The modified shear ...
