In this paper, the relationship between anisotropic mechanical properties and the
corresponding microstructure evolution of wrought magnesium alloys is critically reviewed …

This paper reviews the most recent models for description of the anisotropic plastic behavior
and formability of sheet metals. After a brief review of classic isotropic yield functions, recent …

Together with slip, deformation twinning and de-twinning are the plastic deformation
mechanisms in hexagonal close packed (HCP) crystals, which strongly affect texture …

Bending is a common forming process that covers various stress states during sheet metal
forming, mainly from uniaxial to plane strain states of both tension and compression …

A new constitutive model to describe twinning and detwinning for polycrystalline materials
with the hexagonal close packed (HCP) crystallographic structure is developed and …

Textured hexagonal close packed double-lattice structures show stronger anisotropy than
textured cubic structures. The reason lies behind the necessity to activate deformation …

A recently developed crystal plasticity model for describing twinning and detwinning
behavior is employed to simulate the behavior of extruded Mg alloy, ZK60A. Notably …

The constitutive response of a commercial magnesium alloy rolled sheet (AZ31B-O) is
studied based on room temperature tensile and compressive tests at strain rates ranging …

Tension and compression experiments have been performed to characterize the mechanical
response of 1.57 mm AZ31B-O sheet at room temperature. Five different sheet orientations …

Many researchers have used a material response function termed “electroplasticity” to
account for the mechanical behavior of metals subjected to electric current during plastic …
