| Popis: | Dual-phase steels offer very attractive combinations of strength and ductility owing to the coexistence of different microstructures components and their interactions. These steels are suitable to the automotive industry due to their improved impact resistance increasing the passenger safety along with the vehicle weight reduction. The properties of the dual-phase steels are attributed to the chemical composition, type, size, amount and spatial distribution of different phases that can be obtained during thermomechanical treatments, namely, ferrite and martensite. In this work, the microstructure of as-received DP600 cold rolled steel sheet with 1.2 mm nominal thickness was firstly characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy technique. Then, a representative volume element was obtained from the DP600 microstructure and a micromechanical finite element model is proposed considering the steel chemical composition, average ferrite grain size, martensite volume fraction and mechanical properties of both ferrite and martensite phases. The uniaxial tension loading was simulated by assuming either plane-stress and plane-strain conditions. The numerical predictions corresponding to the plane-strain model are in good agreement with the experimental true stress-strain curve determined along the sheet rolling direction. The proposed finite element micromechanical approach based on the real microstructure proved to be an important tool to evaluate both local and overall behaviors of DP600 steel grade. |
