Thermal-mechanical and springback behavior of dual-phase steel at warm temperatures

For non-quenchable dual-phase(DP)steel sheet,the warm forming process can effectively reduce the amount of springback,and the mechanical parameters that influence its elastic and inelastic recovery to decrease exhibit a strong temperature dependence,especially under cyclic loading conditions.In this paper,the monotonic and cyclic loading tests of DP980 steel sheets are conducted at the temperatures ranging from 25℃ to 500℃.The temperature-dependent flow stress,nonlinear elastic recovery,and Bauschinger effect are investigated.The results demonstrate that both the elastic modulus and Bauschinger effect show an exponential law with pre-strain,and decrease with the increase of forming temperature,while there will be an abnormal phenomenon of rebound due to the influence of dynamic strain aging effect.Meanwhile,a linear relationship between the Bauschinger effect and inelastic strain is observed at various temperatures,and the weight of the Bauschinger effect in the total strain reduces with temperature increasing,which indicates that the springback is dominated by linear elastic recovery.Furthermore,the U-draw bending tests are carried out to clarify the influence of Vickers hardness distribution and martensite size effect on the springback behavior.

Effects of Deformation and Phase Transformation Microstructures on Springback Behavior and Biocompatibility in β-Type Ti-15Mo Alloy

This study examined the mechanical properties, springback behavior from three-point bending loading–unloading tests and biocompatibility from human osteoblast cell adhesion and proliferation experiments in Ti-15Mo alloy with different microstructures. The springback ratio increased after the appearance of deformation microstructures including {332} < 113 > twins and dislocations, due to the increased bending strength and unchanged Young’s modulus. By contrast, the change in springback ratio was dependent on the competing effect of the simultaneous increase in bending strength and Young’s modulus after phase transformation, namely, the isothermal ω-phase formation. Good cell adhesion and proliferation were observed on the alloy surface, and they were not significantly affected by the deformation twins, dislocations and isothermal ω-phase.The diversity of deformation and phase transformation microstructures made it possible to control the springback behavior effectively while keeping the biocompatibility of the alloy as an implant rod used for spinal fixation devices.

Size effects on springback behavior of H80 foils

Size effects make traditional bending theories infeasible in analyzing the springback behavior of H80 foils in the similarity bending experiment. It is observed that there is a certain critical thickness value, which divides the change trend of springback amount of foils into two opposite parts. In order to reveal the reason for size effects on the springback behavior of H80 foils, the method of hardness increment characterization was applied to describe the deformation distribution of foils. The competition between strengthening effect of geometrically necessary dislocations and weakening effect of surface grains determines the change trend of springback amount with foil thickness. When the thickness of foils is large, the weakening effects dominate the material behavior, resulting in that the springback amount decreases with the decrease in foil thickness. However, when the foil thickness is small, the strengthening effects dominate the springback tendency, leading to a sharp increase in the springback amount. Furthermore, the deformation distribution is disturbed due to the enhanced effects of individual grain heterogeneity with the decrease in the thickness of foils, leading to the large scatter of springback angle after unloading.
