Objetivo temático: OT 1 - Reforçar a investigação, o desenvolvimento tecnológico e a inovação

Área Científica: Engenharia mecânica

Síntese do Projeto: In sheet metal forming, the process feasibility analysis is still a long and expensive task, which relies mostly on the materials' Forming Limit Diagrams (FLD) in the strain space. The FLD is currently identified based on an extensive and expensive set of experimental monotonic strain-path tests and it is known to present significant strain path dependency. To overcome this problem, different concepts have being proposed, such as the adoption of coupled damage models. However, their reliability requires a good description of the anisotropic behaviour of the material and improved knowledge concerning the strength differential effect. This proposal aims to develop a new framework for plasticity-damage coupling, with the goal of eliminating the need of the expensive FLD experimental determination, while enabling the detection of formability problems early in the design process. This framework can also contribute to improve the in-service performance of the metallic components.
