NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF DAMAGE DURING HOT FORMING
Journal Title: Computer Methods in Materials Science - Year 2018, Vol 18, Issue 3
Abstract
The main aim of the presented research is the analysis of damage evolution in 16MnCrS5 steel during hot forming based on results obtained from finite element modelling. Particular attention is put on the interaction between dynamic recrystallization (DRX) and damage initiation at the matrix-inclusion interface. Moreover, a modified Gurson-Tvergaard- Needleman (GTN) model is proposed with the nucleation criterion taken from an extended Horstemeyer model, which predicts damage nucleation based on material softening due to the DRX and stress state in the material.

A VISION SYSTEM TO SUPPORT DETERMINATION OF MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF TUBES REQUIRED FOR COMPUTER MODELLING OF TUBE HYDROFORMING
Reliability of computer modelling of tube hydroforming depends strongly on mechanical properties of tubes, which are difficult to determine and sensitive to tube production methods. Some developments in experimental set-...
CELLULAR AUTOMATA MODEL OF CARBONITRIDES PRECIPITATION PROCESS IN STEELS
Cellular Automata (CA) model of carbonitride precipitation in microalloyed steels is presented in the paper. The model accounts for an increase of dislocation density due to plastic deformation and predicts kinetics of p...
