- Combined with a modified Zener-Hollmon parameter, a recently proposed ductile failure criterion is further improved to predict the forming limit of boron steel at hot stamping temperatures. The ductile failure criterion takes into account the critical damage at localized necking or at fracture as a function of strain path and initial sheet thickness. The modified Zener-Hollomon parameter accounts for both effect of varying strain rate and temperature for Boron steel. Working FEM simulation, the capability of the ductile failure criterion is further demonstrated by predicting forming limit of a boron steel in an isothermal Nakajima dome test. Comparison shows the prediction matches quite well with the measurement.
