Abstract
In this study, the effect of the material anisotropies of hot-rolled high-strength steel sheet on localized deformation behavior in hole expansion test has been investigated experimentally. First, the hole expansion test with the circular hole has been conducted to investigate the effect of anisotropies of material properties on the localized deformation behavior around the hole edge. Next, the hole expansion test with the oval hole has been conducted to investigate the effect of the major axis direction of the oval hole on the localized deformation behavior around the hole edge. As a result, it was clarified that the effect of anisotropies of r-value and n-value on the localized deformation behavior is strong, especially the anisotropy of n-value.
