In this study, a springback simulation model based on the benchmark of a Jaguar Land Rover aluminum panel is established. We embed several elastoplastic constitutive models （ Barlat＇ s 89, Barlat＇ s YLD2000, Yoshida-Uemori （YU） ＋ Barlat＇ s 89, and YU ＋ Barlat＇ s YLD2000） in the finite element model,in order to discuss the influence of the constitutive model selection on springback prediction in aluminum sheet forming.展开更多

Two verification examples are used to compare the computation results and test data using the two-dimensional finite difference code FLAC and the finite element code ANSYS, and the two constitutive models proposed in this paper are verified. Two application examples, the large deformation of a prismatic bar and the strain-softening be- havior of soft rock under a complex stress state, are analyzed using the three-dimensional code FLAC3D. The two new elastoplastic constitutive models proposed in this paper can be used in bearing capacity evaluation or stability analysis of structures built of metallic or SD materials.
