Abstract:This paper deals with some general properties of a ductile fracture criterion, which generalizes two ductile fracture criteria conventionally adopted for metal forming analysis and design. The results are valid for a wide class of material models applicable to both cold and hot metal formings. It is expected that the theoretical features of the fracture criterion emphasized in the present paper can be useful for its experimental verification or for determining its parameters from the experiment.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
