Abstract
Constitutive equations for plane stress problems based on the modified form of a non-quadratic yield criterion suitable for aluminium alloy sheet were derived by Barlat et al. to account for the Bauschinger effect (BE). Numerical predictions of spring-back based on the original yield function and its modified form wer performed and compared with the results of draw-bending tests. The results show the necessity of including the BE in the constitutive equations to enhance the accuracy in predicting spring-back.
