The onset of ductile fracture can be described by a simple damage parameter, which accounts for the accumulation of damage under arbitrary deformation. The damage parameter is usually given as integral form of strain over loading history which also has been described as a function of stress state. While the evolution of strain field can be experimentally determined using digital image correlation, experimental measurement of the multiaxial stress state is still a challenging task. Therefore, various uncoupled fracture criteria rely on stress states calculated from phenomenological plasticity model. As a result, the number of mechanical tests required to calibrate the fracture criterion may significantly increase when an anisotropic constitutive model is used. We propose an alternative approach on the basis of a mean field crystal plasticity (VPSC) model, which accounts for the microstructural features such as slip system, crystallographic texture and its evolution. While stress fields can be obtained from the use of full-field crystal plasticity framework, the proposed method utilizes the mean field crystal plasticity framework and repeat the stress estimation on various spatially resolved locations to which DIC technique provides strain history. The repeated VPSC calculations at various locations efficiently provide the map of stress evolution. The resulting map of spatially resolved stress response is further validated by comparing with the bulge stress strain curves.
