Abstract
Numerical simulation combined with experimental test was carried out to analyze the pre-stretching process of the 7075 aluminum alloy sheet, from which the stress variation curves and residual stress of aluminum alloy sheet in different stretch rates were obtained. The results show that the residual stress in length direction is released after unloading the stretch force, while the residual stress in width direction is released during the stretching process. The study of residual stress elimination is beneficial for optimizing stretch rate on the basis of residual stress distribution law. By comparing the variation principle of residual stress in length direction, the size range of three deformation areas and elimination percentage of residual stress were obtained. The residual stresses of clamping area and transition area are not eliminated effectively, so sawing quantity should be the sum of both the areas. The elimination rate of residual stress in even deformation area could reach 90% after choosing a proper stretch rate, which is verified by both simulation and experiment.
