“…Tailor welded blanks (TWBs) offer an excellent means to meet these competing and seemingly contradictory demands. They are used for forming of parts with special strength, stiffness and operational deformation properties (Kinsey and Wu, 2011;Evin and Tomáš, 2012;Bílik et al, 2015;Fracz et al, 2014;Reisgen et al, 2012). With the use of materials with different stress-strain properties or different thicknesses we can achieve higher strength and stiffness while lower weight of the drawn parts or even the whole construction (Slota et al, 2014;Evin, 2013;Fracz et al, 2013;Bílik et al, 2010;Evin et al, 2015;Merklein et al, 2014).…”
