The constitutive response of a commercial magnesium alloy rolled sheet (AZ31B-O) is studied based on room temperature tensile and compressive tests at strain rates ranging from 10(-3) to 10(3) s(-1).… (More)
A combined experimental and numerical study of the effect of temperature on anisotropy in warm forming of AA 6016-T4 aluminum was performed. The anisotropy coefficients of the Vegter yield function… (More)
In warm forming of aluminum sheet, the temperature and strain rates vary considerably. In simulations, the material model must be capable to predict stresses within this wide range. Here, the… (More)
The formability of aluminum sheet can be improved considerably by increasing the temperature. At elevated temperatures, the mechanical response of the material becomes strain rate dependent. To… (More)
Abstract. In an ongoing quest to realize lighter vehicles with improved fuel efficiency, deformation characteristics of the material AA 6016 is investigated. In the first part of this study, material… (More)
A physically-based material model according to Nes is used to simulate the warm forming of Al-Mg-Si sheet. This model incorporates the influence of the temperature and strain rate on the flow stress… (More)
In order to accurately model the plastic deformation of Aluminum sheet at elevated temperatures, a model is required that incorporate the temperature and strain rate dependency of the material. In… (More)
The influence of temperature on the mechanical behaviour of the heat treatable Aluminium alloy EN AW-6061 has been investigated with a series of tensile tests. It is found that temperature has an… (More)
