Abstract:
Magnesium and its alloys have high potential for lightweight applications in the automotive and aerospace industries. In order to design parts for new applications with optimized mechanical properties and higher, more economic production rates, the forming limit behaviour of thin sheets (t 〈 1.0 mm) has to be known for different temperatures and loading rates. In this study, forming limit curves of 0.8 mm thick AZ31 sheet were measured for deformation at 200 °C and 250 °C and at loading rates of 1 mm/s and 10 mm/s with the Nakajima test. The investigations showed that an increase in temperature from 200 °C to 250 °C tends toward higher forming limit values for all stress states. In contrast, an increase in the loading rate from 1 mm/s to 10 mm/s induces a reduction in formability. It can be seen that the temperature, loading rate, and stress state influence the force-distance curves, the distribution of the local major strains, and the sheet thickness reduction.
