Abstract

The steel undergoes rolling above the recrystallization temperature is termed as hot rolled steel. In this process, steel billet is transformed into a thin sheet with some specific properties. These thin sheets are easy to form or work with for several applications. Finite element analysis (FEA) technique is a powerful numerical method for solving several engineering problems. This technique not only reduced the experimental testing cost of materials but also provided the reliable test results for the same. In this article, the commercial HR1 steel was analyzed for tensile properties using FEA technique. The specimen dimensions were adopted from ASTM E8M standard. The 3D design of the specimen was created in CATIA and analyzed in ANSYS. When the applied load is 14 kN, the maximum stress obtained from the virtual analysis is matching well with the numerically obtained values. The maximum stress and strain in the gauge length were 279 MPa and 0.0014, respectively. Also, the calculated value of the maximum elongation was 7% for a 14 kN load.
