High tensile strength steel sheets have large springback after being formend at room temperature. Warm forming can be a solution to reduce springback of high tensile strength steel parts. NANOHITENTM is a high strength ferritic steel precipitation-strengthened by nanometer-sized carbides developed by JFE Steel Corporation. Tensile strength of the steel at room temperature does not change before and after deformation at elevated temperatures up to 873K since the carbides in the steel are stable at high temperatures less than 973K. Therefore, the steel is suitable for warm forming. Springback of 980MPa NANOHITENTM parts warm formed at 873K is the same level of that of cold formed conventional 590MPa steel parts. In this study, two kinds of material testing at room temperature and at elevated temperatures between 573K and 937K were performed to understand the mechanical behavior of 980MPa NANOHITENTM: uniaxial tensile tests and bending tests. The steels flow stress depends on not only material temperature but also strain rate in uniaxial tensile tests. After a bending test, the specimen shows springback measured by the change of an angle between the two sides. Stress relaxation happens while a test specimen is held at the bottom dead point after bending. And the stress relaxation could be used to reduce springback of warm formed parts.

Springback of a high strength steel (HSS) sheet of 980 MPa grade was investigated at elevated temperatures ranging from room temperature to 973 K. From U-and V-bending experiments it was found that springback was decreased with increasing temperature at temperatures of above 573 K. Furthermore, springback was decreased with punch-holding time because of stress relaxation. In this work, the stress relaxation behavior of the steel was experimentally measured. By using an elasto-vicoplasticity model, the stress relaxation was described, and its effect on the springback of sheet metals in warm forming was discussed theoretically.

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.

Abstract Experiments on the compression of graphite cylinders at elevated temperatures are described. It is found that the short-time compressive strength increases with temperature in the range from room temperature to 2000 C, a variation which is consistent with the previously reported behavior of the tensile strength. Photographs of typical modes of deformation and their corresponding stress-strain curves are presented, but a limited degree of temperature control renders the curves semiquantitative in nature. The large, mutually opposing influences of temperature and strain rate are illustrated by photographs of typical failures, and stress-relaxation curves manifest the plasticity of graphite at high temperatures.

The effect of thermal soaking on the mechanical properties of a candidate material for advanced heat engine applications namely, hot isostatically pressed (HIPed) silicon nitride (GTEPY6) are reported here. Pure uniaxial tensile tests conducted at room and at elevated temperatures indicated that the tensile strength of this material dropped significantly after 1000°C. The residual tensile strength of PY6 material after thermal soaking at 1200° and 1300°C was also investigated. Test results showed that thermal soaking at 1200° and 1300°C increased the residual tensile strength. The thermal soaking time had a greater effect on the residual tensile strength at 1300°C. Tensile creep tests performed at 1200° and 1300°C showed that the steady state creep rate was influenced by both the temperature and the applied stress. The higher stress exponent in HIPed as compared to a sintered silicon nitride shows higher creep resistance in the case of HIPed materials.

The reinforcement of plywood is demonstrated by laminating pretensioned basalt fibers between veneer sheets, to fabricate so-called prestressed plywood. Belt type basalt fibers bearing a specific adhesion promoting silane sizing were aligned between veneer sheets with 20 mm spacing and were pretensioned at 150 N. Three-layer plywood samples were prepared and tested for tensile strength at room temperature and at 150 °C. The room temperature tensile tests revealed a 35% increase in tensile strength for prestressed plywood compared to that of the conventional specimen. The reinforcement effect deteriorated at 150 °C but was restored upon cooling to room temperature. The deterioration is attributed to the weakening of bonding between the basalt fibers and phenolic resin matrix at elevated temperatures due to the softening of the resin.

The requirement for products to reduce weight while maintaining strength is a major challenge to the development of new advanced materials. Especially in the field of human medicine or aviation and aeronautics new materials are needed to satisfy increasing demands. Therefore the titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V with its high specific strength and an outstanding corrosion resistance is used for high and reliable performance in sheet metal forming processes as well as in medical applications. Due to a meaningful and accurate numerical process design and to improve the prediction accuracy of the numerical model, advanced material characterization methods are required. To expand the formability and to skillfully use the advantage of Ti-6Al-4V, forming processes are performed at elevated temperatures. Thus the investigation of plastic yielding at different stress states and at an elevated temperature of 400°C is presented in this paper. For this reason biaxial tensile tests with a cruciform shaped specimen are realized at 400°C in addition to uniaxial tensile tests. Moreover the beginning of plastic yielding is analyzed in the first quadrant of the stress space with regard to complex material modeling.

An experimental investigation into ratcheting strain and stress-strain hysteresis loop in stress-controlled cyclic tensile tests at room temperature was performed to determine the effect of loading frequency on the cyclic mechanical behavior of highdensity polyethylene (HDPE). It was found that frequencies ranging from 0.01 Hz up to 1 Hz mostly affects the accumulated strain over related time scales (i.e that of the cycle itself) and not over long time scale (i.e. during the full test). In addition, the higher the frequency is, the more closed and vertical the loops are. Furthermore, the frequency affects only on the kinetics of stabilization of ratcheting strain but not on one of hysteresis loop.

As Carbon-fiber-reinforced SiC-matrix (C/SiC) composites are widely used in high-temperature structural applications, its mechanical behavior at high temperature is important for the reliability of structures. In this paper, mechanical behavior of a kind of 2D C/SiC composite was investigated at temperatures ranging from room temperature (20C) to 600C under quasi-static and dynamic uniaxial compression. The results show the composite has excellent high temperature mechanical properties at the tested temperature range. Catastrophic brittle failure is not observed for the specimens tested at different strain rates. The compressive strength of the composite deceases only 10% at 600C if compared with that at room temperature. It is proposed that the decrease of compressive strength of the 2D C/SiC composite at high temperature is influenced mainly by release of thermal residual stresses in the reinforced carbon fiber and silicon carbon matrix and oxidation of the composite in high temperature atmosphere.

Abstract Fused filament fabrication (FFF) has become one of the most popular, practical, and low-cost additive manufacturing techniques for fabricating geometrically-complex thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) elastomer. However, there are still some uncertainties concerning the relationship between several operating parameters applied in this technique and the mechanical properties of the processed material. In this research, the influences of extruder temperature and raster orientation on the mechanical properties of the FFF-processed TPU elastomer were studied. A series of uniaxial tensile tests was carried out to determine tensile strength, strain, and elastic modulus of TPU elastomer that had been printed with various extruder temperatures, i.e., 190–230 °C, and raster angles, i.e., 0–90°. Thermal and chemical characterizations were also conducted to support the analysis in this research. The results obviously showed the ductile and elastic characteristics of the FFF-processed TPU, with specific tensile strength and strain that could reach up to 39 MPa and 600%, respectively. The failure mechanisms operating on the FFF-processed TPU and the result of stress analysis by using the developed Mohr’s circle are also discussed in this paper. In conclusion, the extrusion temperature of 200 °C and raster angle of 0° could be preferred to be applied in the FFF process to achieve high strength and ductile TPU elastomer.
