Ten experiments, five brass specimens, which are the specimens: (C-1, B-3, A-3, C-3, and B-1) and five aluminum specimens, which are the specimens: (D-1, B-1, E-1, A-1, and A-3) from Tab. 4, were selected to study the fractured surface of the specimens. This choice was made based on the experiments that showed three different levels of formability: low, moderate, and high formability. Fig. 3 shows these selected experimental specimens with their fracture zones, numbered from 1 to 5 for the brass specimens and from 6 to 10 for the aluminum specimens.
