Micromechanical modeling of the work-hardening behavior of single- and dual-phase steels under two-stage loading paths

▶ Work-hardening behavior of single-phase steel and dual-phase steel. ▶ Elastoplastic crystal plasticity model in conjunction with the incremental self-consistent model. ▶ Bauschinger effect and transitional re-yielding behavior are caused by the inhomogeneity of the residual stress field. ▶ These features are especially pronounced in the case of the dual-phase steel.
