Abstract: | Thinning during forming is often considered a failure criterion in the metal forming industry. It is believed that a critical
amount of thinning takes place in a sheet metal before failure. In this study, varying widths of low-carbon steel sheets were
punch stretched under laboratory conditions. Thinning during punch stretching was measured at various locations along the
steel sheets. These measurements demonstrated that thinning during forming is not constant, but that it is a function of the
strain path followed by the sheet. Hence, thinning should not be used as a failure criterion during forming of sheet metals. |
