Prediction of Texture Evolution in Rolled Sheet Metals by Using Homogenization Schemes

Article Preview

Abstract:

This work deals with comparing the prediction of the development of rolling textures by using a homogenization method that is based on a homogeneous reference material. The proposed homogenization scheme, assuming constant stress polarisations in each phase, has in a natural way the potential to model the transition between Taylor- and Sachs-type textures. Therefore, the stiffness ef the hemogeneous reference material has to be varied between infinitely stiff and infinitely compliant. In the present study, texture evolution during rolling is simulated, showing that the application of different comparison materials in the homogenization scheme leads to the development of different main texture characteristics (Cube, Cu, Bs, Goss) in the orientation distribution function. For efficiently carrying out the rolling simulations using the proposed method, the measured texture information of the bulk aluminum sample is representatively reduced by using a partitioning technique of the orientation space.
