The accuracy for cold-bending springback prediction is determined by the sensitivity and
accuracy of the material constitutive model. Thus, the material constitutive model is …

This paper investigates the influence of reverse and cyclic loading on the damage and
fracture behavior of the aluminum alloy EN-AW 6082-T6. A series of uniaxial tension …

The local mechanical properties of a weld zone, in a 6061-T6 aluminium alloy subjected to
the modified indirect electric arc technique have been studied. The mechanical properties of …

The stress–strain response of some materials, such as advanced high strength steels,
during unloading is nonlinear after the material has been loaded into the plastic deformation …

Double-V butt TIG welding process was performed on two plates of AA6061-T6 using
ER5356 filler. The microstructure, mechanical and nanomechanical properties of the joint …

This work discusses the sources of the accumulated inelastic strain observed under
unsymmetrical stress cycling. Different metallic materials have been chosen for their large …

Ratcheting failure of materials and structures subjected to low cycle fatigue in the presence
of significant mean stress is of great interest to researchers. In this experimental and …

Insulated rail joints are critical for train safety as they control electrical signalling systems;
unfortunately they exhibit excessive ratchetting of the railhead near the endpost insulators …

A new mathematical modelling framework for simulation of metal cyclic plasticity is proposed
and experimental validation based on tension-compression cyclic testing of S355J2 low …

A synchronized analysis of strain localization and slip system interaction, with full‐field strain
mapping, in the vicinity of a notch tip in aluminum single crystal is presented. Progressive …
