Abstract
The 6000-series aluminum alloys are generally used as structural materials in building structures and automotive parts where the engineering design requires the use of a light weight material. The credibility of any finite element analysis conducted for these materials depends critically on the constitutive models used to describe the plastic deformation and fracture of these
