Experiments for Calibration and Validation of Plasticity and Failure Material Modeling: 6061-T651 Aluminum

Lee, Kenneth L.; Korellis, John S.; Rogillio, Brendan R.

Experimental data for material plasticity and failure model calibration and validation were obtained from 6061-T651 aluminum, in the form of a 4-in. diameter extruded rod. Model calibration data were taken from smooth tension, notched tension, and shear tests. Model validation data were provided from experiments using thin-walled tube specimens subjected to path-dependent combinations of internal pressure, extension, and torsion.
