Abstract Details

2011, Master of Science, Ohio State University, Mechanical Engineering.
Hot stamping is a relatively new and upcoming technology in the automotive industry used for the manufacturing of lightweight crash resistant parts with ultra high strength. The Finite Element (FE) simulation of hot stamping has to consider the combined effects of thermal, mechanical and microstructural fields. As a result, simulation of hot stamping is a complex process and requires detailed information on various factors such as material properties, process parameters and the right choice of software code. This report presents a complete list of all the important material properties and process parameters required for FE simulation of hot stamping. A sample part geometry was obtained from an industrial partner of the Center for Precision Forming at The Ohio State University and FE simulations of the part were carried out using the FE code DEFORM. The modeling and results of these simulations are presented in this report. Based on the results, a new methodology has been proposed that makes use of two different FE codes namely, DEFORM and PAM-STAMP in order to combine the advantages of the two in simulating hot stamping processes.
