In recent years, the engineered materials were developed to improve their mechanical properties. A high-strength steel sheet is one of them, developed to serve the requirement of reducing weight of vehicles. Therefore, as a new material, many researches have been carried out to examine the use of sheet metal forming process applied for high-strength steel sheet. However, the feasibility of shaving process applied for it has not been investigated yet. In the present study, this feasibility was revealed by using experiments on two types of high-strength steel sheets: SAPH 440 and SPFH 590Y (JIS). The relationship between shaved surface feature and shearing clearance of high-strength steel sheets corresponded well with those of their conventional metal sheets. However, due to the high ultimate strength of these materials, it was revealed in this present study that there were not any suitable conditions of shaving process that could be applied to achieve the requirements of smooth cut surface overall material thickness.

In sheet metal forming process, the input process parameters scatter and considerably result in unreliablity in practical production. Optimization for sheet metal forming process is often considered as a multi-objective problem. An optimizition strategy for high strength steel (HSS) sheet metal forming process was suggested based on response surface methodology (RSM). Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) method was introduced to design the rational experimental samples; the objective function was defined based on cracking factor wrinkle factor and severe thinning factor; the accurate response surface for sheet metal forming problem was built by Least Square Method; Multi-objective Genetic Algorithm(MOGA) was adoped in optimization and Pareto solution was selected. The strategy was applied to analyze a HSS auto-part, the result has proved this method suitable for optimization design of HSS sheet metal forming process.

Clinching is a simple, cheap and efficient method of joining that enables to join two or more sheets without any additional elements such as rivets, bolts or nuts. In addition, clinching does not require a surface preparation e.g. drilling (riveting), cleaning and roughening of the surface (adhesive boding) and other types of surface preparations (arc welding). Clinching is utilized in a wide range of applications and can be applied to different materials such as low carbon steel sheets, high-strength steel sheets, aluminium alloys, magnesium alloys. The paper presents the results of evaluation of clinched joint properties. The advanced high-strength steel sheet DP600 in combination with the drawing grade steel sheets DC06, DX51D+Z and high-strength low alloy steel sheet H220PD were used for experiments. The influence of position of the sheets relative to the punch and die of the tool on the carrying capacities of the clinched joints was observed as well. The tension test and microhardness test were used for the evaluation of clinched joint properties.

A direct punching of inclined ultra-high strength steel sheets having low ductility was carried out to improve the quality of the sheared edge. In the direct punching of an inclined sheet, the contact between the sheet and punch became gradual because of touch from the bottom edge of the punch, and thus the sheared portion tended to bend in the latter half of punching. As the strength of the sheet increased, defects such as burr and secondary burnished surface were occurred around the sheared edge due to the low ductility. The range of direct punching for sheared edge without defects was shown for the high strength steel sheets. To prevent the occurrence of defects, a punch having inclined bottom was used. In this punch, the contact with the sheet was changed, the uniform contact with the inclined bottom was given. In the punch having the inclined bottom, the secondary burnished surface in the edge of 980 MPa grade steel sheet was prevented.

To reduce springback in U-shape of high strength steel sheet, the present paper proposes a new process parameter in U-bending technique. This paper aims to present the effect of clearance between die and pressure pad on springback behavior. The process in this work consists of four steps: (1) clamping of a sheet between a punch and a pressure pad, (2) bending with constant clamping force, (3) pushing-up at bottom of the part by using the pressure pad, and (4) final release tool. From the experimental results, decreasing of bending moment by bottom pushing-up resulted in the springback reduction. An appropriate of the clearance between die and pressure pad combined with bottom pushing-up force can be reduced springback. Our results suggested that the Y-U model, an advanced kinematic hardening, is essential for accurate numerical simulation of springback behavior.

A process of one-step hot stamping-forging for increasing the tensile strength of the hole-flanging of the high-strength steel sheets with flange thickening was developed. In this proposed method, the high-strength steel sheet is directly formed within the designed die, which is simultaneously accompanied with a resistance heating, a hole punching, and the flanging and forging processes. The electrode material is SKD61. This material is not only used as the forming of the high-strength steel sheet but also directly served as the heating of the high-strength steel sheet within the die. The experimental results indicated that the high-strength steel sheet could be heated to 850 °C in 30 s by the SKD61 die. It demonstrates the successful completion of heating, hole punching, flanging and forging in a one-step process. Furthermore, it is found that the tensile strength of M18 tapped hole with forged part is increased by about 7.4% than that without forged part, and the breaking toughness is increased by about 33%.

In this study, the effect of hot stamping forming process on the properties change of compound layer in Al–Si coated high-strength steel sheet with different thickness was investigated. The coating layer in hot stamped high-strength steel sheet was composed of a diffusion layer and a compound layer. As the hot stamping temperature and holding time for forming increased, the thickness of the compound layer in the Al–Si coated high-strength steel sheet increased. The thickness of coating layer with the hot stamping for 500 sec at 890, 910 and 950 °C was obtained 8.9, 11.8, and 20.6 micrometer, respectively. The thickness of coating layer with hot stamping for 180, 500 and 550 sec at 910 oC was obtained 5.7, 11.8, and 17.8 micrometer, respectively. The compound layer in hot stamped high-strength steel sheet with Al–Si coating layer consists of Al5.4Fe2 and Fe2Si phases. In the compound layer, Al and Si were irregularly distributed.
