Modeling the effect of pre-straining on mechanical behavior of magnesium alloy sheet

Experimental observations indicate that pre-deformation can influence the mechanical properties of magnesium alloys. However, inconsistent or even contradictory conclusions have been drawn mainly due to the difficulty of isolating an individual influencing factor from those playing interactive roles in an experiment. Therefore, a systematical study in terms of crystal plasticity modeling is performed to evaluate the effect of pre-deformation...
