Multiscale modelling of plastic anisotropy of automotive steels KU Leuven
The proposed project contributes to the development of a multiscale modelling platform for advanced metal forming simulations. For that purpose, suitable parametric representations of the (dual phase) microstructures will be searched and corresponding virtual, microstructure-based RVE generators will be built. The scientific core of the project will be the extension of single phase polycrystal plasticity models available at KU Leuven to dual ...
