Abstract

In the present paper, the determination of yield locus curves for deep drawing sheet metal is described. The experiments are based on the combination of biaxial tension tests on plane cross-shaped specimens with uniaxial tension and compression tests performed on conventional specimens. The influence of preloading (prestrain) on the hardening behaviour is discussed. The material coefficients are computed through the equalization of the test results by means of a quadratic formulation of the yield condition. Finally, the material coefficients are given as functions of the prestrain of specimens in the rolling direction.
