Modelling the Combined Effect of Room Temperature Storage and Cold Deformation on the Age-Hardening Behaviour of Al-Mg-Si Alloys-Part 1

Abstract:

In the present paper, an extended age hardening model for Al-Mg-Si alloys is presented. In this new approach the combined precipitation, yield strength and work hardening model, known as NaMo Version 1, has been further developed to account for the effects of room temperature storage and cold deformation on the resulting age hardening behaviour. Incorporation of these two new stages in NaMo largely increases the versatility of the model by allowing simulations of complex multi-stage industrial processing involving thermomechanical treatment as well. Part 1 of this work deals with the theoretical background and experimental validation of the extended version of NaMo, while Part 2 focuses on the new applications of the model by showing some numerical examples related to production of automotive body panels.
