Abstract
Polycrystalline models have shown to be powerful tools for prediction of texture developments which is mainly used to analyze textures of different types of materials. When more than one phase is present, it is necessary to take into account their interaction because of their elastic and plastic co-deformation. We have considered wire drawn Cu–Fe samples with a well-defined microstructural state and relatively soft deformation steps of 0.25 equivalent Von Mises strains (VM) up to 3.0 VM. Both phases show typical FCC and BCC wire textures with a texture sharpness depending on the strain. Texture simulations using a 2-site viscoplastic self-consistent model as a constitutive equation in a fully 3D finite element code give results in good qualitative agreement with the experimental ones.
