abstract

the use of twb has been developed in automotive industries because of it’s advantages such as reduction in weight, cost and fuel economy of vehicles. the main objective of the peresent work is to study the effects of weld zone, diffrence in surface coating and thickness ratio on the formability of twb composed of aisi 304, spcc and if steel sheets. it was found that the narrow weld zone has little effect on the formability of twb. results of ldh testing of twb reveals the formability of twb decrease as the thickness ratio of sheet increases. fracture in ldh testing of twb that composed of steel sheets with different surface coating occured on uncoated sheet because of changing in surface friction conditions.

Investigation on Formability of Tailor-Welded Blanks in Incremental Forming

Steel laser tailor-welded blanks (TWBs) are produced by end-to-end joining of base sheets using different welding methods. In this article, the formability of laser TWBs of St12 and St14 with thicknesses of 1 mm and 1.5 in single point incremental forming process were experimentally and numerically investigated. First, the forming limit wall angle was experimentally determined for each of the b...

Formability Analysis of Diode-Laser-Welded Tailored Blanks of Advanced High-Strength Steel Sheets

Currently, advances due to tailored blanking can be enhanced by the development of new grades of advanced high-strength steels (HSSs), for the further weight reduction and structural improvement of automotive components. In the present work, diode laser welds of three different grades of advanced high-strength dual-phase (DP) steel sheets (with tensile strengths of 980, 800, and 450 MPa) to hig...

An Analytical Model to Predict Elongation of Tailor Welded Blanks [TWB]

Tailor Welded Blanks (TWBs) made of dissimilar, uniform or non uniform thickness materials have potential applications in automobile industries for light weight materials in order to improve fuel efficiency and cost of carrier. The focus of this paper is to develop and present analytical model to determine total elongation of tailor welded blank (TWBs). The validation of this method is done by ...
