Analysis of Yield Criteria and Flow Curves on FLC for TWIP900 Steel

Abstract

In this study, the applicability of yield criteria and flow curve models to predict forming limit curve (FLC) via the Marciniak-Kuczynski (M-K) model is investigated for TWIP900 steel. Forming limit characteristics of TWIP900 are determined experimentally and numerically. The yield criteria of Hill48, Barlat89, YLD2000-2d, and BBC2000 are tested and compared with each other. Results indicate that the YLD2000-2d and the BBC2000 yield criteria are found to be more accurate than the other criteria. The YLD2000 criterion has the best prediction capability with the Krupskowsky flow curve while the BBC2000 model has the best prediction with the Ludwick flow curve model. © 2020, The Society for Experimental Mechanics, Inc.
