Numerical simulation is an important tool which can be used for designing parts and production processes. Springback prediction, with the use of numerical simulation, is essential for the reduction of tool try-outs through the design of the forming tools with die compensation, therefore, increasing the dimensional accuracy of stamped parts and reducing manufacturing costs. In this work, numerical simulation was used for performing the springback analysis of car body stamping made of aluminium alloy AA6451-T4. The finite element analysis (FEM) based software PAM-STAMP 2G was used for performing the forming and springback simulations. These predictions were conducted with various combinations of material models to achieve accurate springback prediction results. Six types of yield functions (Barlat89, Barlat2000, Vegter-Lite, Hill90, Hill48 isotropic, and Hill48 orthotropic) were used in combination with the Voce hardening model. Springback analysis was conducted in three sections of the formed part; the numerical results were compared with the experimental values. It was found that the combinations of Barlat's yield functions and the Voce hardening law were most accurate in terms of springback prediction. Additionally, it was found that the phenomena that were investigated, which are required for the determination of the kinematic hardening model, such as the change of Young's modulus E, the transient behaviour, work-hardening stagnation, and permanent softening, were not observed in the aluminium alloy studied.
To assess formability in sheet forming, experimentally determined Forming Limit Curves (FLC) are often used. These conventional FLCs represent the forming limits (i.e. onset of necking) of a sheet material subjected to in-plane deformation or almost in-plane deformation. A widely used approach to experimentally determine the onset of necking of sheet material subjected to in-plane and almost in-plane deformation is formulated in ISO 12004. The aim of this work is to investigate limit strains for deep drawing quality sheet metal of HX180BD made by ArcelorMittal with nominal thickness 0.6 mm. The FLC curve has been measured by implementation of Nakajima test on universal testing machine Erichsen 145-60. The Nakajima test has been measured according to EN ISO 12004-2. Limit strains have been measured using 3D photogrammetric system ARAMIS by GOM. Forming limit curve was evaluated both the section method and the time dependent technique. The resulting experimental FLC curves were compared. With the time based method for the determination of FLC a greater strain values was achieved.
Presented work deals with the prediction of the forming limit of food can obtained with deep drawing, reverse drawing and expansion operations. Two commonly used materials of TH330 steel and AA5352 aluminium alloy for packaging can production were studied. Finite element simulation (FEM) is an essential tool in the packaging industry to prevent different sheet metal forming difficulties such as failure under complex nonlinear strain paths and plastic anisotropic earing. In order to characterise the material plastic properties and to specify failure criteria, the uniaxial tensile, hydraulic bulge test, as well as the routines for obtaining forming limit curves were carried out. The input material data required for various material models are also described. Utilisation of advanced material models in numerical simulation require a large number of input data. Prediction of failure location in drawing and expansion of axi-symmetric cups were estimated for each material. The FEM results were verified by real experiments.
Presented work deals with springback behavior of two different aluminum alloys, one falling into 5th series (AW-5754 H22) with a thickness of 0.8 mm and other from 6th series (AW-6082 T6) with 1.0 mm thickness. These materials are used for their various applications and hardening process. The springback behavior was investigated by U-bending test. Bending tool was graduated jig with rollers and experiment was performed on R11 and R17 radii. The first series of specimens were oriented in a parallel direction and the other in a direction perpendicular to the rolling direction. Experimental results were measured with MATLAB measuring method and compared with finite element calculation carried out in PAM-STAMP. Influence of different yield functions was also examined.
Predictions by numerical simulations are strongly influenced by availability and reliability of input data. In the most used computational models, the material behavior during deformation is described only by static tensile test in combination with Lankford coefficients of anisotropy. However, for some specific materials like highly anisotropic aluminum alloys, such description of material behavior is insufficient and, in many cases, the calculated results are not in good agreement with the measured ones. In this paper, the implementation of advanced material model for deep-drawing process to explicit FE code and the procedure of measurement of the most important input material data for calculations on the aluminum alloy AW 5754 are discussed. Results of the numerical simulation are compared with the experimental ones and exhibit a close correlation.
The aim of this work is to create material model for aluminum material AW 5754 H11 for numerical simulation, which is widely used in automotive industry. For purpose of verification material model the deep drawing cup test was carried up, and measured parameters were punch force, thickness distribution and ear profile. Results from numerical simulation were validated by real experiment with regard to predict accuracy in changes of thickness and ear profile.
Springback phenomenon is well predicted for some mild steel materials, but not for steels with higher strength. One of the most used tools to stamping optimization is usage of finite element analysis. In order to accurate describe the real behaviour of the materials for stamping of vehicle panels, the application of proper hardening rule seems to be crucial. Due to higher accuracy of predicted results, high strength steel sheets are usually modelled by means of kinematic or mixed isotropic-kinematic hardening models. In this paper the springback prediction of advanced high strength steel DP600 by numerical simulation was investigated. Through cyclic tension-compression tests, the material characterization has been performed for DP600 steel sheet. Different hardening models (isotropic, kinematic and mixed isotropic-kinematic) used in the simulations were compared with expreriment. The Yoshida-Uemori model succesfully describe the kinematic behaviour of the material and provided more accurate results than others.
This paper presents the results of numerical and experimental investigations on the influence of friction on failure location in Nakajima formability tests. Finite element (FE) simulations were performed using commercial explicit dynamic FE code. The numerical results obtained from the FE simulation were compared with experimental data from Nakajima tests. A 3D digital image correlation system ARAMIS was used in experiments. The location of failure on the sample was detected depending on friction conditions. The studies confirmed that the crack location near the centre of the specimen as required by the ISO standard could be obtained for low values of the friction coefficient. The numerical simulation combined with the inverse analysis was used to estimate a real value of the friction coefficient in the Nakajima formability test.
