Finite Element (FE) simulation of sheet/tube forming precision depends mainly on the accuracy of the constitutive modeling. The present paper aim is to compare the constitutive models to fit the stress-strain curves. The accurate deformation behavior of the SS 304 tubes depends on the constitutive modeling of hardening behavior. Deformation data of the tensile specimens cut from tubular sample were collected by conducting Uniaxial tensile tests (UTT) at three different rolling directions. Five constitutive relationships were then recognized by fitting the true stress and strain data with the constitutive models of Hollomon, Power, Krupowsky, Voce and Ghosh, and the fitting accuracy were analyzed and compared. Effects of hardening models on Forming Limit Curves (FLC), pressure loading and bulge height of the hydroformed tube were then studied. The obtained FLC from the simulations were compared with experimental FLC to predict the accuracy of the hardening models.

AbstractA thorough understanding of hot deformation behavior plays a vital role in determining process parameters of hot working processes. Firstly, uniaxial tensile tests have been performed in the temperature ranges of 150 °C–600 °C and strain rate ranges of 0.0001–0.01s−1 for analyzing the deformation behavior of ASS 304 and ASS 316. The phenomenological-based constitutive models namely modified Fields–Backofen (m-FB) and Khan–Huang–Liang (KHL) have been developed. The prediction capability of these models has been verified with experimental data using various statistical measures. Analysis of statistical measures revealed KHL model has good agreement with experimental flow stress data. Through the flow stresses behavior, the processing maps are established and analyzed according to the dynamic materials model (DMM). In the processing map, the variation of the efficiency of the power dissipation is plotted as a function of temperature and strain rate. The processing maps results have been validated with experimental data.

Insight Into

The necking behavior of sheet metals under stretch-bending process is a challenge for the forming limit prediction. State-of-the-art forming limit curves (FLCs) allow the prediction under the in-plane stretching but fall short in the case under out-of-plane loading condition. To account for the bending and straightening deformation when sheet metal enters a die cavity or slide along a radius, anisotropic hardening model is essential to reflect the nonproportional loading effect on stress evolution. This paper aims to revisit the M-K analysis under the stretch-bending condition and extend it to accommodate both distortionless and distortional anisotropic hardening behavior. Furthermore, hardening models are calibrated based on the same material response. Then the detailed comparison is proposed for providing better insight into the numerical prediction and necking behavior. Finally, the evolution of the yield surface and stress transition states is examined. It is found that the forming limit prediction under stretch-bending condition through the M-K analysis strongly depends on the employed anisotropic hardening model.

Magnesium alloy sheet has received increasing attention in automotive and aerospace industries. It is widely recognized that magnesium sheet has a poor formability at room temperature. While at elevated temperature, its formability can be dramatically improved. Most of work in the field has been working with the magnesium sheet after annealed around 350°C. In this paper, the as-received commercial magnesium sheet (AZ31B-H24) with thickness of 2mm has been experimentally studied without any special heat treatment. Uniaxial tensile tests at room temperature and elevated temperature were first conducted to have a better understanding of the material properties of magnesium sheet (AZ31B-H24). Then, limit dome height (LDH) tests were conducted to capture forming limits of magnesium sheet (AZ31B-H24) at elevated temperatures. An optical method has been introduced to obtain the stress-strain curve at elevated temperatures. Experimental results of the LDH tests were presented.

By the uniaxial tensile tests of both the arc and tube section samples, the strain hardening curves of 21-6-9 high-strength stainless steel tube(HSST) are obtained. Considering that the uniform plastic deformation stage of the curve is short and the flow stress in large strain area is unknown for this tube, different strain hardening models have been established based on single and piecewise functions, respectively. By comparing the experimental results and the numerical ones in terms of load-displacement curves, it shows the constitutive model achieved by three Swift fitting functions can better characterize the strain hardening response of the 21-6-9 HSST in large strain region.

In the last decades, numerical simulation has gradually extended its applicability in the field of sheet metal forming. Constitutive modeling and formability are two domains closely related to the development of numerical simulation tools. This paper is focused, on the one hand, on the presentation of new phenomenological yield criteria developed in the last decade, which are able to describe the anisotropic response of sheet metals, and, on the other hand, on new models and experiments to predict/determine the forming limit curves.

Forming Limit Curves

Experimental and numerical investigations using Forming Limit Curve (FLC) and Forming Limit Stress Curve (FLSC) were carried out for two Advanced High Strength Steel (AHSS) grades DP780 and TRIP780. The forming limit curves were experimentally determined by means of Nakazima stretching test. Then, both FLC and FLSC were analytically calculated on the basis of the Marciniack-Kuczinsky (M-K) model. The yield criteria Barlat2000 (Yld2000-2d) were employed in combination with the Swift and modified Voce strain hardening laws to describe plastic flow behavior of the AHS steels. Hereby, influence of the constitutive models on the numerically determined FLCs and FLSCs were examined. Obviously, the forming limit curves predicted by the M-K model applying the Yld2000-2d yield criterion and Swift hardening law could fairly represent the experimental limit curves. The FLSCs resulted from the experimental data and theoretical model were also compared.

Effect Of Microstructure

Titanium alloys find a wide range of uses, especially in the aeronautic industry because of a combination of favorable specifications in terms of strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance and performance at high temperature. If many works are interested in mechanical properties, as well as microstructure, few of them studied the effect of microstructure on formability. The aim of this work is to study the influence of the microstructure on the formability of β metastable titanium alloys (Ti21S) which are increasingly used in aeronautical applications. For this purpose, two different heat treatments are performed on Ti21S alloy in order to propose different microstructures. Based on uniaxial tensile tests, the elastoplastic hardening behavior and the limit strain in the uniaxial tension state are obtained and allow to determine one point of the forming limit curve (FLC). From these experimental observations, it is shown that the microstructure has an important effect on the formability: precipitation of α phase reduces the formability in comparison with full β phase microstructure. Finally, a finite element M-K model is used and calibrated to predict the whole FLC for the different investigated microstructures.

In this work, the plastic behavior of cold-rolled zinc coated dual-phase steel sheets DP600 and DP800 grades is firstly investigated by means of uniaxial tensile and Forming Limit Curve (FLC) testing. The uniaxial tensile tests were carried out at 0o, 45o and 90o angular orientations with respect to the rolling direction to evaluate the mechanical properties and the plastic anisotropy Lankford r-values. The forming limit strains are defined according to Nakajima’s procedure. Thickness measurements of tested Nakajima’s samples cut perpendicular to the fracture allowed to identify a rapid decrease of the strain, which governs the plastic instability that preceded the fracture in the drawing region of the FLC. Optical metallographic and scanning electron microscopy techniques helped to characterize and distinguish the orientation of rotated grains and flat fractured surface (ductile shear failure in blank specimens close to plane-strain tension) from no grain rotations and rough fractured surface (ductile tensile fracture in blank geometries in the biaxial stretching domain).
