AutoForm Training Seminars:
Material Behavior in Sheet Metal Forming
This course covers the basics of material behavior of steel, high
strength steel, ultra high strength steel and aluminum in sheet
metal forming processes. Issues such as material behavior under
a variety of forming conditions and properties which influence
this behavior are discussed. Topics are illustrated with practical
applications.
The introduction of mechanical properties and material behavior contains:
 |
Flow curve; mechanical properties, approximation & extrapolations
(Ludwick, Swift, Voce)
|
 |
Forming Limit Diagram; grid analysis, FLC creation
(Nakazima, Marciniak)
|
 |
Material laws and yield locus
(Hill, Barlat)
|
 |
Steel, high strength steel, ultra high strength steel;
DP (Dual Phase), CP (Complex Phase),
Trip (Transformation Induced Plasticity) and Ms (Martensite)
|
 |
Aluminum
|
The main focus of the course is on interpretation - deriving and
using material data in order to understand and interpret material
behavior. The preparation of material data required for forming
simulations is also covered.
Audience
This course is intended for part designers and tool makers in the
automotive industry, as well as for staff carrying out forming
simulations.
