Experimental investigation and through process crystal plasticity-static recrystallization modeling of temperature and strain rate effects during hot compression of AA6063

In this paper, a through process crystal plasticity-static recrystallization model to simulate hot compression in AA6063 is presented. A new temperature and strain-rate dependent hardening model is proposed and implemented in an in-house rate-dependent crystal plasticity framework. Using experimental Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) results, the modified crystal plasticity framework is calibrated, verified and further validated with …
