Abstract

Sheet metal formed parts are often produced in multistage processes. The multi-directional deformations that occur in this process pose a challenge for sufficiently accurate modeling of the material behavior. In this paper, we present an experimental methodology and its potential that serves as a basis for a comprehensive validation of material models with respect to multi-directional deformation. Therefore, we present the experimental results of pre-strained DP600 specimens, which we afterwards subjected by the MUC-Test. The MUC-Test has already been established as a methodology for validating material models under proportional loading. By using pre-strained specimens, this methodology can be extended to non-linearities in the load history. For the purpose of the paper, we pre-strain the sheet material in three conditions: uniaxial tension, plane strain and equibiaxial tension. Thus, we show that the MUC-Test is suitable for the representation of multi-directional strain histories and useful for comprehensive validation of material models.
