This paper presents an analytical study that can predict the path-dependent forming limits for bilinear strain paths. To predict the forming limit diagrams(FLD), the analytical procedure was performed within the framework of Marciniak and Kuczynski approach by introducing the effect of the existence of strain gradient over the stretching punch. The predicted path-dependent forming limits of an anisotropic sheet were compared with the published experimental results. It was found that the predicted path-dependent forming limits were in good agreement with the experimental data.

This paper presents an analytical study that can predict the path-dependent forming limit of anisotropic sheet materials that experience various combinations of strain paths. To predict the forming limit diagrams(FLD), the proposed analytical procedure is performed within the framework of the Marciniak and Kuczynski(M-K) approach by using the Barlat and Lians non-quadratic anisotropic yield criterion and introducing the effect of the existence of a strain gradient over a stretching punch. The predicted path-dependent forming limit of an anisotropic sheet has been compared with the published experimental results. It has been found that the predicted path-dependent forming limits are in good agreement with the experimental data.
