The formability of the material determines the amount of available deformation before failure
and thus is important for the production of various structural components in industries. The …

In this study, a model based on a strain localization level to overcome the shortcomings of
the well-established Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) in predicting the physical phenomenon of …

Localization of plastic strain, also known as necking, is an important failure mechanism of
metals. Although metals are widely used in engineering, it remains unclear how the necking …

Forming limit diagrams (FLDs) and fracture forming limit diagrams (FFLDs) have been
widely used to evaluate formability of sheet metals. There are many existing methods for …

The formability of sheet metal is generally accepted to be limited by the so-called Forming
Limit Curve (FLC). This is valid for a majority of operations, given that localization …

Sheet metal formability is traditionally described by the forming limit curve (FLC).
Experimental FLCs are obtained by performing formability tests and determining failure …

There are various methods to evaluate the forming limit of a sheet, and these criteria can be
classified as position-dependent, time-dependent, and position-time dependent according to …

Sheet metal blanking is an indispensible process for stamping process widely used in
automotive industry and home appliances. The damage induced by blanking becomes an …

Prediction of possible structural collapse scenarios requires the experimental
characterization of post-peak behaviors of structural members. The post-peak behavior of …

The study focuses on stress and strain evaluation of composite resin material with the
reinforcement of clay in the glass-reinforced epoxy composite (GREC). The strain …
