Abstract
Model of evolution of plastic anisotropy due to crystallographic texture development in metals subjected to large deformation processes is presented. Texture evolution for drawing, rolling and pure shear processes is simulated. With use of the introduced texture dependent yield surface for polycrystals influence of the texture on the plastic anisotropy and strain localization phenomena is analyzed. Drawability and stretchability of metal sheets is examined through the Lankford coefficient R and parameter P introduced by Barlat et al
