非熱處型鋁片主要應用於鋁罐、瓶蓋料此些杯狀用品，其深衝（deep drawing）變形後之凸耳高低為品質優劣之關鍵，而決定凸耳高低為集合組織之異向性行為，儘管已有許多文獻藉由將鋁片之集合組織與其深衝變形後沖杯之凸耳行為相關聯，欲以藉集合組織預測凸耳行為，然而兩者間之影響關係仍尚未明瞭。因此，本研究中，藉由探討集合組織對凸耳行為之影響，並進而以鋁片之集合組織異向性預測深衝變形後鋁杯之凸耳行為。
本研究利用XRD及EBSD等分析儀器來量測5151冷軋後鋁合金於不同退火狀態下之集合組織組成與分布與其晶粒特性，並量測相對應之深衝變形後沖杯之凸耳行為，再以Benke’s model以集合組織來預測深衝變形後沖杯之凸耳率，最後將同樣的預測模式應用於不同系鋁合金中，並藉由不同系鋁合金的預測結果進行討論，並修正與優化預測模型，已達到適用於不同鋁合金之預測模式。
在等時退火實驗條件，退火溫度介225℃到325℃並持溫三小時之AA5151鋁片，其耳凸率預測值與實驗值之相關係數為0.96；在等溫退火條件，退火時間介0.5小時到3小時並以250℃持溫之AA5151鋁片，其凸耳率預測值與實驗值之相關係數為0.96。分別在等時與等溫退火條件，其預測結果與理論計算結果呈高度正相關性，表示以集合組織計算凸耳率具可信度。
為了瞭解該集合組織計算凸耳率之適用性，此外，本研究以優化之Benke’s model應用於分析不同鋁合金系列，藉以選取集合組織中方位強度最大值進行耳率預測後，結果發現可以成功預測1070-O、1050-O、3003-O、EAC5-O、6063-O之凸耳率，而且可降低8021A-O和8021B-O之凸耳率預測的偏差，但無法成功預測4N-O與1N30-H之凸耳率，其偏差原因有待更深入研究。

Earing is one of the major defects observed during deep drawing process due to anisotropic nature of aluminum sheet, which is defined as the height difference between hills and valleys on the cup rim after deep drawing a circular blank. Furthermore, the texture of aluminum sheet affects the earing behavior of deep drawn cup. In this study, after annealing, the sheets were deep drawn to form a cup, and then the earing behavior was obtained. The texture and microstructure of annealed aluminum alloy sheets were measured by X-ray diffraction and electron backscatter diffraction, respectively. For the earing prediction, the Benke's model is used to correlate texture components to predict the earing ratio. The predicted earing ratio is positively consistent with experimental earing ratio for isochronal and isothermal annealing AA5151 aluminum alloy sheets with both correlation coefficients of 0.96. In addition, earing prediction can be applied to aluminum alloys 5151-O, 1070-O, 1050-O, 3003-O, EAC5-O, 6063-O, 8021A-O and 8021B-O except for 4N-O and 1N30-H.
