On the Modeling of Evolving Elastic and Plastic Anisotropy in the Finite Strain Regime – Application to Deep Drawing Processes

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, we discuss a finite strain material model for evolving elastic and plastic anisotropy combining nonlinear isotropic and kinematic hardening. The evolution of elastic anisotropy is described by representing the Helmholtz free energy as a function of a family of evolving structure tensors. In addition, plastic anisotropy is modelled via the dependence of the yield surface on the same family of structure tensors. Exploiting the dissipation inequality leads to the interesting result that all tensor-valued internal variables are symmetric. Thus, the integration of the evolution equations can be efficiently performed by means of an algorithm that automatically retains the symmetry of the internal variables in every time step. The material model has been implemented as a user material subroutine UMAT into the commercial finite element software ABAQUS/Standard and has been used for the simulation of the phenomenon of earing during cylindrical deep drawing.
