To improve the accuracy of a sheet metal forming simulation, the constitutive model is
calibrated using results from multiaxial material testing. However, multiaxial material testing …

Multiscale mechanical behaviors of ferrite–pearlite steel were predicted using numerical
material testing (NMT) based on the finite element method. The microstructure of ferrite …

We introduce a method of predicting the macroscopic yield strength of polycrystalline metals
subjected to plastic forming, which hinges on the reliability of the micro–macro decoupling …

In the field of damage modeling for ductile materials, numerous models have successfully
addressed various fracture responses, as well as the need for robust algorithms and …

The objective of this contribution is to develop an elastic–plastic–damage constitutive model
for crystal grain and to incorporate it with two-scale finite element analyses based on …

The quantitative adequacy of the Taylor model for representing the behaviors of FCC
polycrystals is discussed through comparison with crystal plasticity analysis using the …

Single crystal plasticity based on a representative characteristic length is proposed and
introduced into a homogenization approach based on finite element analyses, which are …

The computational efficiencies of the continuum and consistent (algorithmic) tangent moduli
tensors in rate-independent crystal elastoplasticity are examined in conjunction with the …

An unintended anisotropic deformation of a polycrystalline billet has been observed in micro-
extrusion, which implies that the extruded billet shows a curved shape rather than an …

We investigate the effects of shape and size of crystal grains on the yielding behavior of
polycrystalline metals by applying the two-scale finite element method, which is based on …
