High Strain Rate Deformation of High Strength Sheet Steels for Automotive Parts 980952

The effects of strain rate on the deformation behavior of steels were investigated to find the most appropriate micro structure of steel for anti-crash parts of automobiles, such as front-side-members. The dual phase steel absorbed a higher amount of energy during dynamic deformation than other steel with the same static yield strength. The increase of volumetric fraction of the austenite phase in the dual phase steel deteriorates the dynamic deformation behavior. The FEM analysis for crash test of member also showed the superior performance of the dual phase steel.
