Study the near plane strain tensile test specimen using finite element code ABAQUS

Absztrakt

In the present work, optimization of near plane strain tensile test specimen for four types of cold-rolled steel DC01, DC04, DP600, and DP1000 are studied using finite element code ABAQUS. The sample width (A), notch radius (R), and material anisotropy (r-value) were the main parameters considered in this study. The effects of these parameters on the Plane Strain State Index (PSSI) and Homogeneity Index (HI) were analyzed and presented.
