Abstract
Abstract The in-plane torsion test offers a broad range of applications for the characterization of mechanical properties of sheet metal materials and components. True plastic strains up to 1.0 can be achieved. Such data can be used for the numerical analysis without extrapolation of the flow curve. The stress and strain state correspond to ideal simple shear during the entire process. The application range of the plane torsion test has been constantly expanded by different approaches and a more sophisticated evaluation has been developed. The full-field analysis of the test area makes it possible to determine an almost arbitrary number of cyclic flow curves with only one single specimen. By using a grooved specimen, the ideal simple shear state can be obtained until fracture of the material without inhomogeneities. New investigations show that the in-plane torsion test is also suitable for the determination of flow curves for curved surfaces. Investigations on curved rotationally symmetrical as well as a tubular shape were performed. Finally, first results for the local determination of the strength’ arbitrary locations of a component are presented.
