Modelling of metal forming processes is an essential task of production engineering. Due to
the latest technological developments, a huge variety of models is already available and …

Experimental and numerical investigations on the characterisation and prediction of cold
formability of a ferritic steel sheet were performed in this study. Tensile tests and Nakajima …

This paper presents a review on the formability evaluation of AHSS, enhancing necking-
based failure criteria limitations. Complementary fracture/damage constitutive modeling …

It has been accepted that the formability of a sheet metal with a moderate ductility can be
limited by not only localized necking (LN), but also ductile fracture (DF). In this study, a …

One of the most challenging issues in the automotive industry is to reliably predict the
fracture limits across a broad range of the deformation modes subjected to various forming …

Abstract The Forming Limit Curve (FLC) describes the maximum in-plane strains that can be
applied to sheet metal before necking initiates. It is well known that the FLC depends on the …

An isotropic ductile fracture criterion considering nucleation, growth, shear coalescence and
necking coalescence of voids during plastic deformation is developed to model fracture …

Abstract The modified isotropic Mohr-Coulomb (iso-MMC) fracture model, which utilizes the
Mises yield function and isotropic hardening law, was calibrated through tensile tests on …

The present study investigates the use of both Marciniak and Nakazima tests to generate the
forming limit curves (FLCs) for a power-law hardening dual phase steel, DP980, and an …

The forming limit of sheets usually corresponds to the strain accumulation before localized
necking and is closely related to the loading state. In the viscous pressure forming (VPF) …
