Abstract
The layer compression test is an established method for the characterization of sheet metal behavior under equibiaxial tension. Due to its ability to achieve high strains without necking and the simple experimental setup, the test is a welcome alternative to the more complex Bulge test for flow curve determination. In addition, the layer compression test provides further data for the calibration of yield loci models. However, the evaluation of the test is not trivial, since a tactile extensometer measurement incorporates the error of closing gaps between single sheet layers. Moreover, the sheet metal anisotropy is neglected. To overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks, a measurement and evaluation methodology based on the optical strain measurement of two orthogonally positioned 3D digital image correlation (DIC) systems was introduced recently. The method delivers reliable results but increases the complexity and costs of the test. Here, a simplification to this method is proposed. By the usage of only one 3D DIC system, the major in-plane strain is acquired from an online measurement. The minor in-plane strain is calculated posteriori by the consideration of the biaxial Lankford parameter. In this way, the anisotropy and thus the correct flow behavior can be studied by only one 3D DIC system. The proposed method is evaluated and discussed.
