Deformation Textures: Connection Between Modelling and Experience in Elastoplastic Behaviour of Polycrystals

Abstract

Two materials of industrial interest are studied, an α–brass and an aluminium 1Ø5Ø sheet, either from an experimental point of view (results of classical mechanical tests, complex loading pathes, measurement of the poles figures) as from a theoretical approach based on the modelling of the elastoplastic behaviour of the polycrystal.
