This paper is concerned with the thermo-mechanical behavior of steel sheet for an autobody including the temperature dependent strain-rate sensitivity. Tensile tests have been carried out with the high strength steel sheets such as SPRC35R, SPRC45E and TRIP60. The tensile tests were performed with the variation of the strain-rates from 0.001/s to 200/s and with the variation of environmental temperatures from -40 to 200. The thermo-mechanical response at the quasi-static state is obtained with the static tensile test and the one at the intermediate strain-rate is obtained with the high speed tensile test. Both the strain-rate and the temperature sensitivity of the flow stress are calculated for the quantitative evaluation of thermo-mechanical behavior of steel sheets. The results demonstrate that as the strain-rate increases, the variation of the flow stress becomes more dependent on the temperature. The results also indicate that the material properties of SPRC35R are more sensitive to the strain-rate and the temperature than those of SPRC45E and TRIP60.

Dynamic Factors

The tensile strength of seventeen engineering materials including steels, Al alloys, and fiber-reinforced plastics, has been determined at strain-rates from 10−3 to 103 sec−1. Variable effects on the stress-strain behavior were found in the different materials with the Al alloys showing minimal strain-rate sensitivity and the plastics highest. All results exhibit a logarithmic dependence of flow stress on strain-rate and thus the dynamic factors (ratio of dynamic to low rate or quasi-static strengths) are as dependent upon changes in quasi-static testing speed (∼1 in./min (0.42 mm/s) as they are to changes at high speed (50,000 in./min or 50 mph (22.35 m/s). No significant influence of strain-rate on elongation or reduction in area has been found for any of the materials. Steels, which comprise the majority of the presently investigated materials, exhibit a higher rate sensitivity for yielding than for higher strain deformation. It is shown that the flow stress results for these steels leads to an internally consistent scheme when (1) strength level and (2) strengthening mechanisms are properly accounted for.

Process simulation is a powerful tool to predict material behaviors under specified deformation conditions, so as to optimize the processing parameters. The equation for flow stress is important to numerically analyze. However, the reported constitutive equations of magnesium alloy are only suitable for processing simulation with strain rate between 0.001-1s-1. In this paper, the strain-stress behavior of AZ31 under warm and high strain rate (>103s-1) condition has been investigated by split Hopkinson pressure bar experiments at elevated temperature. The results show that the influence of the temperature on flow stress is more obvious than that of strain rate; the flow stress decreases with the rise of temperature at a certain strain rate. Based on Johnson-Cook model, the constitutive equation of AZ31 magnesium alloy under warm and high strain rate condition has been given out by fitting the experimental data, which can be applied in process simulation of AZ31 magnesium alloy sheet forming.

According to the characteristic of appearing cavitation in the metals during superplastic deformation, the influence of strain rate on cavity evolvement, the influence of cavity on superplastic deformation capability, and the formation, development process of cavity were investigated for Al-Cu-Mg alloy (i.e. coarse–grained LY12). The results show that: ①The pore nucleation occurs not only at triangle grain boundaries, but also along nearby the second phase particles, and even within grains. The cavities at the triangle grain boundaries are present in V-shape, others near the second phase particles and within grains are present in O-shape. These cavities may result from disharmony slippage of grain boundaries. ②The tendency of cavity development decreases with increasing of strain-rate. In lower strain-rate condition, though Al-Cu-Mg alloy has better superplasticity, many big cavities in the specimen may reduce the room temperature properties of the alloy. In higher strain-rate condition, Al-Cu-Mg alloy has certain superplasticity and room temperature properties as well as few cavities forming. By analyzing, viscous layer on grain boundaries is very thin and grain sizes can be refined during their extruding and rotating each other in higher strain-rate superplastic deformation condition. ③Growth and coalescence of cavity are the main reason of the superplastic fracture of Al-Cu-Mg alloy. And small and a certain amount of cavities with dispersion and independence state are very useful to crystal boundary slippage.

High Speed Cutting

In recent times, numerical simulation techniques have been commonly used to estimate and predict machining parameters such as cutting forces, stresses, and temperature distribution. However, it is very difficult to estimate the flow stress of a workpiece and the friction characteristics at a tool/chip interface, particularly during a high-speed cutting process. The objective of this study is to improve the accuracy of the present method and simultaneously determine the characteristics of the flow stress of a workpiece and friction at the cutting edge under a high strain rate and temperature during the cutting process. In this study, the Johnson-Cook (JC) flow stress model is used as a function of strain, strain rate, and temperature. The friction characteristic was estimated by minimizing the difference between the predicted and measured results of principal force, thrust force, and shear angle. The shear friction equation was used to estimate the friction characteristics. Therefore, by comparing the measured values of the cutting forces with the predicted results from FEM simulations, an expression for workpiece flow stress and friction characteristics at the cutting edge during a high-speed cutting process was estimated.
