Performance Evaluation of Yield Function and Comparison of Yielding Characteristics of SS 304 in Annealed and Unannealed Conditions

Abstract

Sheet metal forming forms in numerous industries like vehicle depend on the yielding of the sheet metals when strained. Yielding is portrayed by plastic flow of the materials when strained. The yield point if there should be an occurrence of uniaxial tension can be effectively decided from the pressure strain diagram, yet if there should arise an occurrence of multi axial Stresses it gets complicated. A connection between the principal stresses is required determining the conditions under which plastic flow occurs. This intricacy is tended to by the anisotropic yield capacities. Likewise, the tests used to acquire yield loci might be costly and time taking in such case these yield capacities end up being exceptionally viable. The yield criteria additionally help in deciding planar distribution of yield stresses and anisotropic coefficients, which gives a decent gauge of these mechanical parameters without having to through the pain of trial assurance. This project aims at using Hill 1948 criterion to obtain the Yield surface Diagrams for SS304 in annealed and original state and subsequently obtain the planar distribution of the uniaxial yield stress and anisotropic coefficient. Also, the performance evaluation of both the distributions will be done using accuracy index.
