Testing and modelling of material behaviour and formability in sheet metal forming

TLDR
In this paper, the authors provide a critical review of the models available today for predicting the material behaviour at both industrial and scientific level, and the tests needed to identify the models' material parameters.
Abstract
The paper deals with the testing and modelling of metals response when subjected to sheet forming operations. The focus is both on the modelling of hardening behaviour and yield criteria and on the description of the sheet metal formability limits. Within this scope, the paper provides a critical review of the models available today for predicting the material behaviour at both industrial and scientific level, and the tests needed to identify the models’ material parameters. The most recent advances in the field are also presented and discussed with particular emphasis on the challenges the sheet metal forming community is now facing.

Hot stamping of boron steel sheets with tailored properties: A review

TL;DR: A review of the main research activities recently carried out in the framework of hot stamping of boron steel sheets with tailored properties is given in this article, where the focus is on the process variants developed to locally adjust the mechanical properties of the hot stamped component as well as on the testing and modeling techniques needed to calibrate the numerical models of the tailored tempering processes and to evaluate the post-forming properties of stamped products.

Anisotropic and asymmetrical yielding and its distorted evolution: Modeling and applications

TL;DR: In this article, a unified continuum-based discontinuous (CBD) framework is constructed, in which SSM and SIM are introduced to capture the distorted shape of the yielding, and an interpolation approach is adopted to smoothly present the nonlinear evolution of the distorted plasticity in the full stress space.

Kinetics of Phase Change. I General Theory

TL;DR: In this paper, the theory of phase change is developed with the experimentally supported assumptions that the new phase is nucleated by germ nuclei which already exist in the old phase, and whose number can be altered by previous treatment.

Kinetics of Phase Change. II Transformation‐Time Relations for Random Distribution of Nuclei

TL;DR: In this article, a relation between the actual transformed volume V and a related extended volume V1 ex is derived upon statistical considerations, and a rough approximation to this relation is shown to lead, under the proper conditions, to the empirical formula of Austin and Rickett.

Fracture characteristics of three metals subjected to various strains, strain rates, temperatures and pressures

TL;DR: In this paper, a cumulative-damage fracture model is introduced which expresses the strain to fracture as a function of the strain rate, temperature and pressure, and the model is evaluated by comparing computed results with cylinder impact tests and biaxial (torsion-tension) tests.

On the ductile enlargement of voids in triaxial stress fields

TL;DR: In this article, a variational principle is established to characterize the flow field in an elastically rigid and incompressible plastic material containing an internal void or voids, and an approximate Rayleigh-Ritz procedure is developed and applied to the enlargement of an isolated spherical void in a nonhardening material.
