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).

In this work the comfortability of dual-phase automotive steel DP600 is studied through uniaxial tensile tests and V-die bending tests in different directions relative to the rolling direction. A microstructural analysis was also carried out in each characteristic region of the deformation zone, evidencing the changes in the morphology of the microstructure grains. Additionally, the plastic anisotropy of the material was studied by implementing the constitutive anisotropy models known as Hill-48 and Barlat-89. The results showed an increase in elastic recovery at 45 ° and 90 ° from the rolling direction. This variation can be attributed to the morphology of the martensite that created preferential location zones within the material during the rolling process. The two models Hill-48 and Barlat-89 correctly describe the yield surface and the plastic anisotropy obtained in the experimental tests carried out. The simulation using the finite element method and the Hill-48 model gave satisfactory results in the prediction of the elastic recovery as compared to the experimental results obtained with the V-die bending test.

Hole Expansion Test

Plastic behavior of advanced high strength steel sheet of grade TRIP780 (Transformation Induced Plasticity) was investigated using three different yield functions, namely, the von Mises’s isotropic, Hill’s anisotropic (Hill’48), and Barlat’s anisotropic (Yld2000-2d) criterion. Uniaxial tensile and balanced biaxial test were conducted for the examined steel in order to characterize flow behavior and plastic anisotropy in different stress states. Additionally, disk compression test was performed for obtaining the balanced r-value. According to the different yield criteria, yield stresses and r-values were calculated for different directions and then compared with experimental data. To verify the modeling accuracy, a hole expansion test was carried out experimentally and numerically by FE simulation. Stress-strain curve from the biaxial test was described using voce and swift hardening models. Punch load and stroke, final hole radius, and strain distribution on specimen surface along the hole circumference and the specimen diameter in rolling and transverse directions were determined and compared with the experimental results. It was found that the simulations applying Yld2000-2d yield function provided an acceptable agreement. Consequently, it is noted that the anisotropic yield potential significantly affects the accuracy of the predicted deformation behavior of sheet metal subjected to hole expanding load.

Anisotropic plastic behavior of advanced high strength steel sheet of grade TRIP780 (Transformation Induced Plasticity) was investigated using three different yield functions, namely, the von Mises’s isotropic, Hill’s anisotropic (Hill’48), and Barlat’s anisotropic (Yld2000-2d) criterion. Uniaxial tensile and balanced biaxial test were conducted for the examined steel in order to characterize flow behavior and plastic anisotropy for different stress states. Especially, disk compression test was performed for obtaining balanced r-value. All these data were used to determine the anisotropic coefficients. As a result, yield stresses and r-values for different directions were calculated according to these yield criteria. The results were compared with experimental data. To verify the modelling accuracy, tensile tests of various notched samples were carried out and stress-strain distributions in the critical area were characterized. By this manner, the effect of stress triaxiality due to different notched shapes on the strain localization calculated by the investigated yield criteria could be studied.

Magnesium Sheet

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.

Numerical elastic-plastic simulations have undergone significant expansion during the last decades (e.g. refined fracture mechanics finite element models including ductile tearing). However, one limitation to increase the accuracy of such models is the reliable experimental characterization of true stress-strain curves from conventional uniaxial tensile tests after necking (plastic instability), which complicates the direct assessment of the true stress-strain curves until failure. As a step in this direction, this work presents four key activities: i) first, existing correction methods are presented, including Bridgman, power law, weighted average and others; ii) second, selected metals are tested to experimentally characterize loads and the geometric evolution of necking. High-definition images are used to obtain real-time measurements following a proposed methodology; iii) third, refined non-linear FEM models are developed to reproduce necking and assess stresses as a function of normalized neck geometry; iv) finally, existing correction methods are critically compared to experimental results and FEM predictions in terms of potential and accuracy. The experimental results evaluated using high-definition images presented an excellent geometrical characterization of instability. FEM models were able to describe stress-strain-displacement fields after necking, supporting the exploratory validations and proposals of this work. Classical methodologies could be adapted based on experiments to provide accurate stress-strain curves up to failure with less need for real-time measurements, thus giving further support to the determination of true material properties considering severe plasticity.

The influence of the texture on material mechanical properties and deformation behaviour was widely discussed. (refer to Bunge, H.J. (1982). Texture Analysis in Materials Science Mathematical Methods). Butterworths, London. In this work elastic properties (Young's modulus) of cold rolled Al–6%Mg alloy sheet were estimated taking into account lattice preferred orientations, which can be described by the orientation distribution function (ODF). The ODF was reconstructed from pole figures measured by means of neutron diffraction and was approximated by normal distributions (Savyolova, T.I. (1994)Zavodskaya Laboratoria 50, N5, 48–52). The method used for calculation is able to express explicitly the polycrystalline elastic property via the single crystal property and the texture parameters.Stress–strain dependenc (deformation curves) was measured by means of uniaxial tensile tests for Al–6%Mg alloy samples with different tensile axis directions. Samples for uniaxial tests were cut at different angles to the rolling direction. The conformity between experimental and computed results is discussed.

Fracture Behaviors

The mechanical properties of the rolled isotactic polypropylene and the morphology of fracture surfaces were measured and observed by tensile tests and the scanning electron microscopy. And then the tensile fracture behaviors along the rolling and transvers directions of the rolled samples were analyzed. After rolling, strong anisotropy mechanical properties occurred along the rolling and transverse directions: high tensile strength with low total elongation along the rolling direction and low tensile strength with high total elongation along the transverse direction. After tensile test, three characteristic structures were found on the fracture surfaces. The tensile fracture behavior of the rolled samples is: stress concentration happens on the edge of tensile sample and then fracture develops to the center part of the tensile sample. When the fracture is big enough, the tensile sample will be failed very quickly.

Abstract Formability of sheet metal is dependent on the mechanical properties. Some materials form better than others - moreover, a material that has the best formability for one stamping may behave very poorly in a stamping of another configuration. For these reasons, extensive test programs are often carried out in an attempt to correlate material formability with value of some mechanical properties. The formability of sheet metal has frequently been expressed by the value of strain hardening exponent and plastic anisotropy ratio. The stress-strain and hardening behaviour of a material is very important in determining its resistance to plastic instability. However experimental studies of formability of various materials have revealed basic differences in behaviour, such as the ”brass-type” and the ”steel-type”, exhibiting respectively, zero and positive dependence of forming limit on the strain ratio. In this study mechanical properties and the Forming Limit Diagram of the AMS 5599 sheet metal were determined using uniaxial tensile test and Marciniak’s flat bottomed punch test respectively. Different methods were used for the FLD calculation - results of these calculations were compared with experimental results

In order to understand the anchorage mechanisms the fracture behavior of jointed rock masses reinforced with rockbolts was compared with those of the jointed rock masses without rockbolts. Firstly the unaixal tensile tests were conducted on the specimens with inclined surface cracks, horizontal through cracks and horizontal a quarter through cracks to investigate the crack growth of the jointed rock masses without rockbolts. The experimental results show the fracture of the specimens without rockbolts belonged to tensile fracture in the catastrophic way under uniaxial tensile conditions. However the experimental results of the specimens reinforced with rockbolts show that rockolts can change the initiation of the pre-existing cracks, incur the secondary cracks and there existed stable crack propagation.
