Abstract
The finite element method is used to numerically simulate the development of ridging/roping in ferritic stainless steel sheet under stretching. The measured electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) data (grain orientations and their spatial distributions) are directly incorporated into the finite element model and the constitutive response at an integration point is described by the single crystal plasticity theory. The effects of spatial orientation distribution, imposed deformation path, and inhomogeneous deformation within individual grains on the roping are discussed. It is found that the initial texture and its spatial distribution are the predominant factors for the development of ridging.
