Earing and Anisotropy Indices of Texture Components in the Hot-Rolled 3104 Alloy

Abstract:

The paper describes an experimental verification of a previously proposed formula establishing the relationship between the crystallographic parameters of a rolled sheet and the anisotropy index in a hot-rolled aluminum alloy. The main texture components were identified in the hot-rolled 3104 alloy using the X-ray structure analysis. The crystallographic parameters and anisotropy indices were then calculated both for the entire workpiece and for each individual texture component. The earing level of the hot-rolled workpiece was determined using the process of cylindrical cup drawing. Cup formation was also simulated using the finite element software package PAM STAMP. The earing data obtained through t simulation were compared with experimental results. For the validation of the calculations the hot-rolled workpiece anisotropy indices were also experimentally determined.
