Second law analysis of a waste heat recovery based power generation system
Cliff Butcher,Bale V. Reddy +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of a waste heat recovery power generation system based on second law analysis is investigated for various operating conditions and the effect of pinch point on the performance is investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of strain rate on flow stress and anisotropy of DP600, TRIP780, and AA5182-O sheet metal alloys
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of strain rate on both the flow stress and anisotropy characteristics was examined and the performance of constitutive models was evaluated through comparison of the predicted and measured engineering stress-strain responses and the area reduction at the measured elongation at fracture.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of the Critical Parameters Influencing the Edge Stretchability of Advanced High-Strength Steel Sheet
TL;DR: In this article, hole expansion tests involving the standard conical punch as well as a custom flat punch were performed to investigate formability when the hole is expanded out-of-plane (conical punch) and in-plane using the flat punch.
Journal ArticleDOI
Damage Evolution in Complex-Phase and Dual-Phase Steels during Edge Stretching
TL;DR: The CP microstructures were shown to be less prone to shear-induced damage than the DP materials resulting in much higher sheared edge formability and an analytical model for void evolution and coalescence was developed and applied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation into the shear stress, localization and fracture behaviour of DP600 and AA5182-O sheet metal alloys under elevated strain rates
TL;DR: In this article, Peirs et al. used in situ digital image correlation (DIC) techniques to measure the strains in the experiments and methods are proposed for characterizing the local strain within shear bands.
