Different Characteristics

A tailor welded blank (TWB) includes two or more blanks joined together in order to make a single blank. Different welding methods are used to join blanks with different characteristics and form TWBs. In this study, a comparison is made among the effects of three different welding methods namely CO2 laser welding, friction stir welding (FSW), and friction stir vibration welding (FSVW) on mechanical and formability properties of developed TWBs. AA6061 alloy sheets with different thicknesses (1.2 and 0.8 mm) are joined to get TWBs. The forming limit diagram (FLD) and limiting dome height (LDH) are applied to assess the formability. The Taguchi method is applied to find the optimum values of welding parameters. It is concluded that TWBs made by FSVW have higher mechanical properties and formability compared to TWBs made by FSW and CO2 laser welding. The results also indicate that FLD for TWBs made by FSW is higher than FLD for TWBs made by CO2 laser welding and FLD0, for TWBs made by FSVW, increases as vibration frequency increases.

Abstract Formability of sheet metal is dependent on the mechanical properties. Some materials form better than others - moreover, a material that has the best formability for one stamping may behave very poorly in a stamping of another configuration. For these reasons, extensive test programs are often carried out in an attempt to correlate material formability with value of some mechanical properties. The formability of sheet metal has frequently been expressed by the value of strain hardening exponent and plastic anisotropy ratio. The stress-strain and hardening behaviour of a material is very important in determining its resistance to plastic instability. However experimental studies of formability of various materials have revealed basic differences in behaviour, such as the ”brass-type” and the ”steel-type”, exhibiting respectively, zero and positive dependence of forming limit on the strain ratio. In this study mechanical properties and the Forming Limit Diagram of the AMS 5599 sheet metal were determined using uniaxial tensile test and Marciniak’s flat bottomed punch test respectively. Different methods were used for the FLD calculation - results of these calculations were compared with experimental results

This research aims to investigate the mechanical properties, fractography and formability of Al/Cu two-layer composite sheets at three temperatures (23 °C, 120 °C and 220 °C). The bimetal sheet was fabricated by the explosive welding method. The anisotropy of the Al/Cu bimetallic composite sheet was investigated. The result showed significant anisotropy in the Al/Cu composite sheet due to the explosive welding process. The Vickers hardness measurements demonstrated that the hardness in both aluminum and copper sides increased because of the work hardening phenomenon. The fractography of the surfaces was investigated by the scanning electron microscope after tensile tests to study the effect of temperature and the direction, which the samples prepared for the tensile test with respect to the explosion direction, on the mechanism of the fracture. For the tensile test, the samples were prepared parallel to the detonation direction [Formula: see text] and two other directions with respect to the explosion direction [Formula: see text] from the AA1100/Cu10100 bimetallic sheet. Finally, the forming limit diagram of the Al/Cu composite sheet was determined at the three mentioned temperatures. The results demonstrated that temperature and the direction had a considerable effect on the mechanism of the rupture and formability. As the temperature of the specimen rises, the regions that brittle fracture happened became less and the formability improved significantly. The formability of the Al/Cu composite sheet enhanced about 34.8% when the temperature increased from 23 °C to 120 °C and 67.5% when it increased from 120 °C to 220 °C.

The influence of temperature on the forming behavior of an aluminum/polypropylene/aluminum (APA) sandwich sheet was studied. Shear and tensile tests were performed to determine the mechanical properties of the laminate and the component materials as a function of process temperature. The forming limit diagram (FLD) of the laminate was established for two different temperatures, and its springback behavior was examined in four-point bend and channel bend tests. Cup forming tests were performed at various test temperatures to determine the limiting drawing ratio (LDR) and the tendency for wrinkling at these temperatures. Although there was only a minor influence of temperature on the mechanical properties and the FLD values of the laminate, the bend test results reveal that springback can be reduced by forming at higher temperature. The decreasing strength of the core material with rising process temperature led to an increased tendency of the laminate to wrinkle in the heated cup drawing tests.
