Integrated Experimental–Numerical Investigation of DD14 and DC04 Steel Sheet Formability Based on Tensile Test Characterization
摘要
This study presents a comparative formability assessment of hot-rolled DD14 and cold-rolled DC04 steel sheets, focusing on the mechanical factors governing their plastic stability. An integrated experimental–numerical approach was employed to evaluate their anisotropic response. Uniaxial tensile tests were conducted at 0°, 45°, and 90° relative to the rolling direction to determine key formability indicators. The results demonstrate that DC04 steel exhibits superior deep-drawing capacity and plastic stability, supported by a higher strain-hardening exponent (n ≈ 0.30) and superior average anisotropy (
