This paper presents results of experimental studies of forming limit curves (FLC) for sheet forming under complex strain paths. The Nakazima-type formability tests have been performed for the as-received steel blank and for the blank pre-strained by13%. Prestraining leads to abrupt change of strain path in the blank deformation influencing the forming limit curve. The experimental FLC of the pre-strained blank has been compared with the FLC constructed by transformation of the as-received FLC. Quite a good agreement has been found out. The concept of strain-path independent FLCs in polar coordinates has been verified. Two types of the polar diagrams have been considered, the first one with the strain-path angle and effective plastic strain as the polar coordinates, and the second one originally proposed in this work in which the thickness strain has been used instead of the effective plastic strain as one of the polar coordinates. The second transformation based on our own concept has given a better agreement between the transformed FLCs, which allows us to propose this type of polar diagrams as a new strain-path in dependent criterion to predict sheet failure in forming processes.

This paper presents numerical investigations of the influence of friction on sheet deformation in Nakazima type formability tests. Numerical simulations have been performed using the authors’ own explicit dynamic finite element program. Numerical results have been compared with experimental data. Location of fracture was of major interest in this work. The studies confirmed that the fracture location near the center of the specimen as required by the standards can be obtained for low values of the friction coefficient. Numerical simulation combined with the inverse analysis has been used to estimate a real value of the friction coefficient in the Nakazima formability test.

W artykule przedstawiono analizę numeryczną wpływu tarcia na rozkład odkształceń uzyskanych w próbach tłoczności przeprowadzonych metodą Nakazimy. Symulacje numeryczne zostały przeprowadzone w autorskim programie opartym na metodzie elementów skończonych z jawnym całkowaniem ruchu względem czasu. Wyniki numeryczne porównano z danymi eksperymentalnymi. Główną uwagę zwrócono na lokalizację miejsca pęknięcia. Badania potwierdziły, że miejsce pęknięcia w pobliżu środka próbki, zgodnie z wymaganiami norm, można uzyskać przy małych wartościach współczynnika tarcia. Symulacja numeryczna, w połączeniu z analizą odwrotną, została wykorzystana do oszacowania rzeczywistej wartości współczynnika tarcia w przeprowadzonych próbach tłoczności metodą Nakazimy.

This paper presents the results of numerical simulations of the formability tests carried out for a pre-stretched 1 mm thick DC04 steel sheet. Simulation consisted of the subsequent stages as follows: uniaxial stretching of the sheet, unloading and stress relaxation, cutting specimens out of the pre-stretched sheet and bulging the blank with a hemispherical punch. Numerical modeling has been verified by comparison of the simulation results with the experimental ones. Good concordance of the results indicates correct performance of the numerical model and possibility to use it in further theoretical studies.

W pracy przedstawiono wyniki symulacji numerycznej próby tłoczności wstępnie wyprężonej blachy ze stali DC04 o grubości 1 mm. Symulacja obejmowała kolejno następujące etapy: wyprężanie blachy, odciążenie, wycięcie wykrojki z blachy wyprężonej oraz próbę wybrzuszania półkulistym stemplem. Wyniki numeryczne porównano z wynikami doświadczalnymi. Uzyskana zgodność wyników wskazuje na prawidłowe działanie modelu numerycznego oraz możliwość wykorzystania go do dalszych badań teoretycznych.

This paper presents numerical investigations of the influence of friction in the contact between sheet and a punch on sheet deformation in Nakazima type formabilitybtests. The Nakazima test [1] is one of the most comonnly used tests to study experimentally formability of metal sheets. It consits in stretching of a sheet specimen by means of a hemispherical punch until fracture occurs.
The aim of this study has been to numerically identify frictional conditions in a selected case of the Nakazima test and study numerically effect of change of friction on strain path and forming limit curve. (FLC). Numerical simulations have been performed assuming the data corresponding to own lboratory tests carried out for the steel grade HC380LA 1.5 mm thick.

Finite element method is an efficient numerical tool to analyse problems of the sheet metal forming processes in particular cup drawing and stamping. Proper description of material properties is crucial for accurate analysis. In particular, the anisotropy and asymmetry of elastic range, which is related with strength differential effect (SDE), of considered materials play an important role in finite element simulation. For metal forming analysis with use of traditional models many experimental tests are usually needed to obtain the adequate description of anisotropic behaviour of metal sheets. Therefore, the search for new models, which are based on simplified description of the effects of anisotropy and SDE requiring less experimental tests seems to be justified.
The paper presents the application of a new yield criterion for the transversal isotropy of metal sheets under plane stress conditions. The proposed criterion is based on the study of yield criteria accounting for SDE and anisotropy nade by W. Burzyński [1]. The system of equations describing the sheet metal forming process is solved by the algorithm using the return mapping procedure. Plane stress constraint is incorporated into the Newton-Raphson iteration loop. The proposed algorithm is verified by performing the numerical calculations using shell elements of the commercial FEM sftware ABAQUS/EXPLICIT with own VUMAT subroutine.
