The expansion of a circular hole in an orthotropic sheet of AA6022-T4 is examined using a
combination of experiments and analysis. This deformation mode is accomplished by …

The predictive quality of numerical simulations for mechanical joining processes depends
on the implemented material model, especially regarding the plasticity of the joining parts …

The new idea is to produce specimens by forward rod extrusion, where in the core of the
extrudate a deviatoric tension-loading is present, which is superposed by an adjustable …

The fracture characterization of ductile sheet metals under uniaxial tensile stress is a
challenge due to plastic strain localization. In conventional tensile tests, fracture initiation …

For many metals, a transient variation of the yield stress can be observed when changing
the orientation of a load-path. Such behavior affects the manufacturing process itself, eg by …
