Microbending experiments of pure aluminum show that the springback angles increase with the decrease of foil thickness, which indicates obvious size effects and attributes to plastic strain gradient hardening. Then a constitutive model, taking into accounts both plastic strain and plastic strain gradient hardening, is proposed to analyze the microbending process of thin foil. The model is based on...
