Galvannealed steel sheets are being widely used in automotive application for better
corrosion resistance. It is generally known that uncoated steel sheets have better mechanical
properties than coated steel sheets due to presence of zinc coating. But frictional characteristics of
coated steel sheets are very different from those of uncoated steel sheets. Therefore the study on
mechanical and frictional characteristics of these steel sheets is needed. In this study, tensile test was
performed to evaluate mechanical properties of coated and uncoated steel sheets. Cup drawing test
was performed to measure friction-coefficient. And frictional characteristics were analyzed by using
FE-analysis. The effect of mechanical and frictional properties on cup drawing was investigated. It
was shown that the frictional properties more affected cup drawing.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
