Analytical solutions sometimes relies on empirical formulas, such as the shape spreading function. Finite element modeling will be viable solution to get those functions.
In our factory, we have noticed that the big chaning in filling of a profile for different materials. Maybe crystal plasticity finite element method will help.
@QiangF well the idea sounds nice, but on the one side I don't even know if there even is a multi scale crystal plasticity FEM available at the moment and on the other side we designed the software so it is fast, or better, as fast as possible. Most of the spreading models were originally developed for "common" steel but almost all have a material coefficient so can be adopted to your material.

I guess your software could allow the use of finite elements or similar methods, although these will be much slower. You may like to add a comment to the paper or documentation about this possibility.

Okay, then I will merge this PR and we will update the Readme accordingly.
