In this paper, the mechanism of surface low defect in sheet metal stamping is studied. Firstly, we simulate the forming procedure of a stamping component by Fini

Finally, we take advantage of the critical stress to detect local buckling areas in the component. The FE simulation result shows that du

This indicates that the essence of surface low phenomenon is panels local buckling under the residual compressive stres

These defects are strictly detected and controlled in body manufacturing. Liu et al. 1 proposed an optical re

Fukumura et al. 4 simulated surface low defects in an automobile door exterior panel. Park et al. 5 developed a curvature-based algorithm to

Andersson 2 adopted a curvature-based visualization algorithm to verify the consistence between experiment result and simulation prediction. Nowadays the me

Based on experiment results, Yang Y.Y. et al. 7 pointed out that the residual compression stress was the mechanics condition of the surface deflection initiation. In Numisheet 2008, Wang Huiping et al. 8 made a study on a surface distortion pred

In this paper, the mechanism of surface low defects in sheet metal forming is further studied. FE Simulation In this study, the experiment by Fu et al. 3 is simulated. In Fig. 1 is the section v

Analytical Model The surface low problem is simplified as a rectangular plate under plane stress condition, shown in Fig. 4. The length of the plate is a, the wide of the plate is b and its thickness is t. The plate is com

The boundary conditions of the plate model are assumed to be simply supported at the four sides. The depth of surface defect is close to the thickness of the she

The location of the two measure points are shown in Fig. 5. Point

25、 A is around the corner of the embossment, where surface low occurs according Advanced Materials Research Vols. 538-541379 to the experimental work by Fu et al. 3. Point B is near Point A, but surface low does not occur at this point. The difference of the displacement in the Z direction, Z=ZA-ZB, r

Fig. 6 The history of surface deflection In Fig. 6 is the history of surface deflection during the entire forming process. During the drawing procedure, the surface deflection fluctuates about the zero value with

27、in 0.1mm. At the end of drawing, the surface deflection is only 0.01 mm. During springback, the absolute value of surface deflection increases dramatically. At the end of springback, the absolute value of surface deflection increases from 0.01 to 0.1 mm (negative value means concave and positive val

28、ue means convex), 10 times the original value. This indicates that the panel trembles during drawing, but surface low does not grow in this stage. It is during springback that the non-uniform displacement in thickness direction forms surface low. local buckling surface low (stoning) Fig. 7 Minor str

(9), we can calculate the critical stress for the sub-domains divided by the

32、 compressive stress level (shown in Table 2). According the results, buckling occurs in the sub-domain 5 whose boundary compressive stress is 150 MPa. Fig. 8 shows the predicted local buckling area and compares it with the experiment results by Fu et al. 3. It is obvious that the local buckling area

33、 agrees with the detected surface low area. This indicates that the essence of surface low phenomenon is panels local buckling under the compressive residual stress during springback. Conclusion Our work in this paper focuses on the mechanism of surface low defect in sheet metal stamping. Based on t

34、he finite element simulation results, theoretical analysis and the referred experiment result, the following conclusions apply: ? The stamping panel trembles during drawing, but surface low does not grow in this stage. It is during springback that the non-uniform displacement in thickness direction

35、forms surface low. ? The panel local buckling under the compressive residual stress during springback is one of the major reasons for surface low in sheet metal stamping.
