Abstract:Automotive car companies are using AHSS (advanced high strength steels) over the last 20 years, to reduce vehicle weight and improve safety. The new steels can achieve higher strength and good fatigue resistance, but some issues related to springback and low formability are also a big concern. Thus, companies need to extend their know-how regarding material behaviour, design rules and manufacturing processes.
Therefore, materials characterization laboratories are working to obtain the new formability charts of… Show more
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.
