A general forming limit criterion for sheet metal forming

TLDR
In this article, it is shown that the forming limit for both proportional loading and non-proportional loading can be explained from a single criterion which is based on the state of stress rather than the state-of-stress.

Microstructure, forming limit diagram, and strain distribution of pre-strained DP-IF steel tailor–welded blank for auto body application

TL;DR: In this article, tailor-welded blanks (TWBs) of dissimilar material combination were fabricated by laser welding of interstitial-free (IF) and dual-phase (DP) steels using 2.4kW power and 4m/min scan speed.

Sheet Metal Forming Limit Under Stretch-Bending

TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical formulation for the Bending-enhanced Forming Limit Diagram (FLD) is presented, where the deformation theory of plasticity is employed for the instability analysis, and the bending is assumed only in the direction along one principal loading.

Free Expansion Bulge Testing of Tubes For Automotive Hydroform Applications

TL;DR: In this paper, a new model was developed in which simulated the whole tube instead of considering only its mid-section, judged by the pressure-expansion relations, the model accurately predicted free expansion hydroforming tests results.
