The anisotropic ductile fracture of a 6260-T6 anisotropic aluminum alloy extrusion is
investigated using a hybrid experimental–numerical approach. A basic fracture testing …

The paper deals with the effect of stress state on the damage behavior of ductile metals. The
continuum damage model has been generalized to take into account the effect of stress …

Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS) are increasingly used in automotive industry due to
their superior strength and substantial weight advantage. However, their compromised …

Nowadays, the total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a widespread surgical procedure, representing
the best option to restore hip joint mobility in patients suffering from trauma or joint diseases …

An anisotropic extension of the Hosford–Coulomb localization criterion is obtained through
the linear transformation of the stress tensor argument. Unlike for isotropic materials where …

A great research effort has been spent during the latest years in the characterization of
additive manufacturing (AM) alloys, mostly focused on the analysis of microstructure and on …

In this paper, a nonlinear model for ductile damage accumulation is presented and applied
to predict failure under non-proportional loading conditions. To this purpose, several tension …

This paper begins with a review of the literature regarding the modelling of skew rolling
processes, with a special focus on the problem of material fracture. Numerical modelling is …

Formability is one of the critical issues in metal forming processes since it is a limiting factor
for the choice of the process parameters as well as for the attainable part quality. This issue …

Two primary variables that impact failure behavior of ductile metals are defects and stress
state. These factors are especially critical in additively manufactured materials, as …
