Abstract

The springback of tailor rolled blanks with quenching and partitioning steels was investigated. In order to find out the springback behavior and related influence factors for the novel sheets, both experimental and simulation methods have been used to compare and analyze the springback characteristics of equal thickness blanks and tailor rolled blanks in U-channel forming. From the results, the overall springback angles of tailor rolled blanks at thin and thick sides are respectively 106.79° and 99.705°, which are both lower than those of the corresponding equal thickness blanks. Due to the existence of the thickness transition zone, the stress distribution in thin and thick sides of blanks is changed. The location of dangerous region in thin side of tailor rolled blanks is closer to the end of side, and the thick side moved to the middle of straight wall, which are different with the equal thickness blanks. Afterwards, the released quantities of tangential stress and strain per unit section of blank are adopted to calculate relative springback angles and give novel evaluation criteria for qualitatively analyzing the amount of springback angles. By comparing the results, it shows that the tangential strain method is more suitable for the actual situation.
