In face of the need of the production of new materials for the automotive industry with better performance allied to the concern with environmental issues, aiming to reduce the consumption of fossil fuels, emerged from the decade of 1990, the advanced high-strength steels (AHSS), which reconcile a small sheet thickness and high mechanical resistanc...

... steels advanced high-resistance (HSS) are widely used today as automotive structural components to improve the energy absorption of mechanical impact (crashworthiness) without the addition of weight to the bodyshell (YAMANO AND IWAYA, 2005). Figure 1 illustrates the evolution regarding the resistance of mentioned steels of high resistance. ...

... 9. Bauschinger effect and hysteresis circuit Source: Dieter (1981) In the work of Tarigopula et al. (2008), it is possible to view the typical mechanical behavior of dual phase and interstitial free steels with respect to the effect Bauschinger. The comparison between these two steels is shown in Figure 10. It is observed that only for the biphasic steel, the path of reverse deformation follows the lowest levels with relation to steel IF due to effect Bauschinger. ...

Among the models of bending presented in previous pictures, in this present work, was used to bending in the air or bending of three points in the air -Air Bending test, whose schematic representation is shown in Figure 11 (a). In this same figure in (b), are represented the surfaces of the sheet metal after the bending, being that the external surface refers to the portion of the sample, the compressed bottom surface refers to the portion of the sample and on the gripped the middle region of the thickness is neutral axis. . ...

... the ferrite core needs to be deformed considerably more around the rigid martensite to accommodate the deformation applied macroscopically. As is shown in Figure 17 (a), the curvature of the crystalline reticulum is not concentrated in sharp lines, but spreads out on the whole grain. This suggests that dislocations that are associated with this curvature lead to a kind of tempering that is not so strongly isotropic, since the dissipation of the tension by crystalline lattice will depend on the increase of the tangle of disagreements formed by fragmentation of martensite and curvature of ferritic grain. ...

This contrasts with the remarks made to the steel IF (Figure 17 (b)) to show the absence of any structure aligned or structure of steel bands in DP. In the steel IF, this banding can be responsible for the appearance of cross effect. ...

Comparing the biphasic steels (Figures 102 and 103) with the ferrite single-phase steels it is noticed that the presence of martensite in biphasic steels was not able to change the type of site of coincidence, since both for biphasic steels as for steels of single phase, the sites are the same, only varying the intensity of occurrence of each one of them. ...
