[Case study] Precise springback prediction of hightensile materials by using the Y-U model

Category
  • Realistic reproduction of forming process and evaluation

The simulation considers the Bauschinger effect and plastic strain dependency of unloading Young's modulus.

Parts with hightensile steels have a measurable problem of inaccurate dimensions due to springback.

JSTAMP has a precise springback prediction module based on the "Yoshida-Uemori material model" (Y-U model) as a standard feature. The module can perform a simulation that considers the Bauschinger effect and the plastic strain dependency of unloading Young's modulus. The simulation is applicable to high-tensile materials and aluminum materials.

[Case study] Forming a B-pillar made of hightensile 980 material

Given below is a comparison between a JSTAMP simulation and a trial of the springback behavior of a B-pillar made of hightensile material during draw-forming. Over 90% of the area of the sheet panel, the gap between the simulation result and the trial sheet panel was within 1.0 mm.

Over 90% of the area of the sheet panel, the gap between the simulation result (within 1.0mm)

<Gap between the simulation and the trial results>
Gap area Percentage
within 0.25mm 32%
within 0.50mm 59%
within 0.75mm 80%
within 1.00mm 91%

Accurate representation of the Bauschinger effect by using the Y-U model

Stress-strain behavior of the Y-U model Stress-strain behavior of the Y-U model

In the springback prediction of super-high-tensile materials, where the Bauschinger effect (reduction of the deformation resistance during reversal stress) is presented strongly, it is important to predict the material behavior accurately. The Y-U model has gained broad acceptance owing to its strong ability to evaluate springback behaviors accurately in the bending formation of hightensile materials.
