This paper presents the numerical and experimental investigation of the incremental sheet forming (ISF) process with the Lemaitre damage model to incrementally form parts of conical shapes. The Lemaitre damage model was prepared as a material subroutine (VUMAT) and linked to Abaqus/Explicit. The elastic–plastic parameters for the simulation were identified through tensile testing of the ASTM E8 specimen. The digital image correlation (DIC) was performed during the tensile testing to identify the damage parameters of the Lemaitre damage model. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM)-based area method was used to identify the area fraction vis-a-vis the variation of the strain. Thereafter, the identified area fractions with respect to strains have been calibrated to obtain the damage parameters through an inverse analysis approach. The identified parameters were used to form conical objects of Al1050 H14 sheets of 2 mm thickness through finite element (FE) simulation. The results obtained through FE simulation were compared with the experimental outcomes to investigate the efficiency of the Lemaitre damage model to simulate the ISF process. The responses obtained through FE simulation and experiments have been discussed in terms of limiting wall angle and forming depth, damage evolution, deformation mechanism, forming limit diagram, geometrical accuracy, forming forces, thickness distribution, and surface roughness.
