TL;DR: In this article, a generalized phenomenological yield description is proposed to account for the behavior of the solute strengthened aluminum alloy sheets studied in this work and the experimental yield surfaces were found to be in good agreement with the polycrystal predictions for all materials and with the phenomenological predictions for most materials.
Abstract: In this work, yield surfaces were measured for binary aluminum-magnesium sheet samples which were fabricated by different processing paths to obtain different microstructures. The yielding behavior was measured using biaxial compression tests on cubic specimens made from laminated sheet samples. The yield surfaces were also predicted from a polycrystal model using crystallographic texture data as input and from a phenomenological yield function usually suitable for polycrystalline materials. The experimental yield surfaces were found to be in good agreement with the polycrystal predictions for all materials and with the phenomenological predictions for most materials. However, for samples processed with high cold rolling reduction prior to solution heat treatment, a significant difference was observed between the phenomenological and the experimental yield surfaces in the pure shear region. In this paper, a generalized phenomenological yield description is proposed to account for the behavior of the solute strengthened aluminum alloy sheets studied in this work. It is subsequently shown that this yield function is suitable for the description of the plastic behavior of any aluminum alloy sheet.

TL;DR: A review of the relations between microstructure and mechanical properties is presented in this article focusing on plasticity mechanisms, strain-hardening, yield stress, texture, fracture and fatigue.
Abstract: A significant increase in the research activity dedicated to high manganese TWIP steels has occurred during the past five years, motivated by the breakthrough combination of strength and ductility possessed by these alloys. Here a review of the relations between microstructure and mechanical properties is presented focusing on plasticity mechanisms, strain-hardening, yield stress, texture, fracture and fatigue. This summarized knowledge explains why TWIP steel metallurgy is currently a topic of great practical interest and fundamental importance. Finally, this publication indicates some of the main avenues for future investigations required in order to sustain the quality and the dynamism in this field.
