Abstract This study is aimed to predict ductile fracture of sheet metal forming for 6016-T4 aluminum alloy (AA6016-T4). Six shapes of tension tests in three directions with respect to the rolling direction have been carried out up to fracture to measure ductile fracture for the sheet. Since the fracture-related parameters determined by finite element simulation are sensitive to plasticity model, the Yld2000-2d and anisotropic Drucker yield functions with a combined Swift-Voce hardening model were firstly identified for AA6016-T4 and then used to compare the prediction accuracy. These constitutive models are implemented into ABAQUS for plane stress condition and S4R shell elements are set for the finite element model. Comparison of the experimental and simulation results indicates that the anisotropic Drucker yield function is more suitable for AA6016-T4 by considering both the computational accuracy and efficiency. Based on these results, fracture loci for AA6016-T4 were represented by four common ductile fracture criteria (Cockcroft–Latham, Rice–Tracey, Clift and DF2012). Three kinds of specimen were employed to calibrate the fracture models by using a hybrid experimental–numerical method. The results show that the DF2012 criterion is more flexible and accurate for AA6016-T4 with the comparison of force–displacement curves. For further validation, these four ductile fracture criteria are also applied to predict the fracture of an automobile inner panel in drawing forming, and the results show that the DF2012 criterion provides sufficient prediction precision for AA6016-T4.
