tensile tests and hydraulic bulge tests were carried out for two differently textured sheets of pure titanium. The sheets were previously examined for the orientation distribution of grains, containing the orientation relation between neighboring grains. The deformation behavior of the titanium sheets was examined in connection with the effect of the orientation difference between neighboring grains on the deformation mechanism of grains. In the case of the uniaxial tensile test, the correlation in the 0.2% proof stress among differently textured sheets and different test directions can be explained by the preferred orientation of the sheets. However, the plastic flow curves are influenced by the orientation difference between neighboring grains. In the sheets rolled unidirectionally at 1173 K, the orientation difference of the c-axis between neighborsmaller than that of the 0.2% proof stress, and the slope of the stress to the strain is larger than that of the sheets cross rolled at 873 K. Stress-strain curves and effective stress-effective strain curves of two differently textured titanium sheets, which were estimated from the hydraulic bulge test using the Hill's theory for the anisotropy, were examined. Since the preferred orientation in the sheets cross-rolled at 873 K is (0001)[1010] and the orientation difference of the c-axis between neighboring grains is small, the deformation mechanism of grains under the biaxial tension is extremely different from that under the uniaxial tension. Therefore, as pointed out previously, the overestimation of the anisotropy by the r value takes place. Though the r values of the sheets rolled unidirectionally at 1173 K are relatively high (from 2 to 5), the difference in the deformation mechanism of grains between different loading conditions is small because of the plastic constraint among neighboring grains. As a result, the estimation of the anisotropy by the r value is not so irrelevant.
