Characterization of Cold Formability of High-Strength Steels in Bending Tests
The cold formability of sheet materials for automotive application is traditionally characterized by stretch forming and deep drawing tests.Since especially for high strength multiphase materials,crack initiation can happen prior to necking the bending test has been developed which is able to define defect-free forming conditions for such modern materials.For the presented study,a damage mechanics model is used to predict the behavior of a dual phase steel DP600 in a bending test.The characteristic bending angle where the materials microstructure is free of micro cracks in an engineering sense is defined.The simulations reveal that both the stress triaxiality and the Lode angle parameter stay constant in the specimens critical spot as soon as the plastic deformation starts.Both parameters are also not changing significantly when the r/t ratio is modified.This allows replacing the complicated bending test by a simple plane strain tensile test on a notched sample,since exactly the same local state of stress can be found in this sample.
