Biography
[edit]Professor Frédéric Barlat is a French/American scientist in the field of plasticity, damage and metal forming. He is currently the director of A&S Center at Graduate Institute of Ferrous Technology at Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH University) in South Korea. Professor Barlat's contribution in the field of plasticity, particularly his models on anisotropic plasticity of metallic materials, has been recognized worldwide.
Professor Frédéric Barlat finished his undergraduate and master's degree at Ecole Nationale Supérieure d’Arts et Métiers, France in 1980. He finished his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Grenoble Institute of Technology in France in 1984. Immediately after finishing his PhD he started his career as a researcher associate at Alcoa Technical Center in Pittsburgh, USA. In 1986 he became an assistant professor at Grenoble Institute of Technology in France. After one year he returned to Alcoa research center as a senior engineer, where he worked for 20 years. In 2007, he joined Pohang University of Science and Technology in South Korea as a professor.
Constitutive models
[edit]Professor Frédéric Barlat is highly recognized in the plasticity, damage, and metal forming communities. He has innovated and developed several brilliant constitutive models for anisotropic plasticity of metallic materials including:
- A family of Barlat's yield criteria:
- Barlat's 89 model: Plastic behavior and stretchability of sheet metals. Part I: A yield function for orthotropic sheets under plane stress conditions;
- Barlat's 91 model: A six-component yield function for anisotropic materials;
- Yld2000-2D: Plane stress yield function for aluminum alloy sheets;
- Yld2004-18p: Linear transformation-based anisotropic yield functions;
- Barlat's constitutive model for non-isotropic hardening (cyclic loading) of metallic materials:
- Homogeneous-Anisotropic-Hardening (HAH) model: An alternative to kinematic hardening in classical plasticity
