Stage Process

The high-strength steel blanks with higher yield strength had introduced many challenging formability problems for the stamping process. However, in some situations the multi-stage process is a very effective solution for the stamping of high-strength blanks with a relatively lower formability than that of commonly steel blanks. In the multi-stage process, the change of strain path will be beneficial to the reduction of strain peaks and the utilization of the potential plasticity.

Stamping Process

The thermomechanical-phase transformation coupled relationship of high-strength steel has important significance in forming the mechanism and numerical simulation of hot stamping. In this study a new numerical simulation module of hot stamping is proposed, which considers thermomechanical-transformation multifield coupled nonlinear and large deformation analysis. In terms of the general shell finite element and 3D tetrahedral finite element analysis methods related to temperature, a coupled heat transmission model for contact interfaces between blank and tools is proposed. Meanwhile, during the hot stamping process, the phase transformation latent heat is introduced into the analysis of temperature field. Next the thermomechanical-transformation coupled constitutive models of the hot stamping are considered. Static explicit finite element formulae are adopted and implemented to perform the full numerical simulations of the hot stamping process. The hot stamping process of typical U-shaped and B-pillar steel is simulated using the KMAS software, and a strong agreement comparison between temperature, equivalent stress, and fraction of martensite simulation and experimental results indicates the validity and efficiency of the hot stamping multifield coupled constitutive models and numerical simulation software KMAS. The temperature simulated results also provide the basic guide for the optimization designs of cooling channels in tools.

Forming Process

In high-strength steel hot forming, under the heating and quenching interaction, the material is oxidized and de-carbonized in the surface layer, forming a gradual change microstructure composed of ferrite, ferrite and martensite mixture and full martensite layers from surface to interior. The experiment enunciation: Form the table to ferrite, ferrite and martensite hybrid organization, completely martensite gradual change microstructure,and make the strength and rigidity of material one by one in order lower from inside to surface, ductility one by one in order increment in 22MnB5 for hot forming;Changes depends on the hot forming process temperature and the control of reheating furnace gas content protection, when oxygen levels of 5% protective gas, can better prevent oxidation and decarburization;Boron segregation in the grain boundary, solid solution strengthening, is a major cause of strength increase in ;The gradual change microstructure in outer big elongation properties, make the structure of the peak force is relatively flat, to reduce the peak impact force of structure, keep the structure of high energy absorption capacity;With lower temperature, the material yield strength rise rapidly,when the temperature is 650 °C, the yield strength at 950 °C was more than 3 times as much.

The use of new developed high-strength steel in concrete members can reduce steel bars congestion and construction costs. This research aims to study the behavior of concrete columns reinforced with new developed high-strength steel under eccentric loading. Ten reinforced concrete columns were fabricated and tested. The test variables are transverse reinforcement amount and yield strength, eccentricity, and longitudinal reinforcement yield strength. The failure patterns are compression and tensile failure for columns subjected to small eccentricity and large eccentricity, respectively. The same level of post-peak deformability and ductility only can be obtained with lower amount of transverse reinforcement when high-strength transverse reinforcements are used in columns subjected to small eccentricity. The high-strength longitudinal reinforcement can improve bearing capacity and post-peak deformability of concrete columns. Besides, three different equivalent rectangular stress block (ERSB) parameters in predicting bearing capacity of columns with high-strength steel were discussed based on test and simulated results. It is concluded that the Code of GB 50010-2010 overestimates the bearing capacity of columns with high-strength steel, whereas bearing capacities computed using Codes of ACI 318-14 and CSA A23.3-04 agree well with test results.

Kinetics Of

Based on the Kirkaldy-Venugopalan model, a theoretical model for the phase transformation of USIBOR® 1500 high strength steel was established, and a graph of the phase transformation kinetics of ferrite, pearlite, and bainite were plotted using the software MATLAB. Meanwhile, with the use of the software DYNAFORM, the thermal stamping process of an automobile collision avoidance beam was simulated. The phase transformation law of USIBOR® 1500 high-strength steel during hot stamping was studied through a simulation of the phase transformation during the pressure holding quenching process. In combination with the continuous cooling transformation (CCT) curve, the cooling rate of quenching must be greater than 27 °C/s to ensure maximum martensite content in the final parts, and the final martensite content increases as the initial temperature of the sheet rises.
