The wide application of advanced high strength steels with high specific strength in the automotive industry can significantly reduce energy consumption and contribute to carbon neutrality. Accurate prediction of the ductile fracture behavior of advanced high strength steels under complex stress states is of great significance for its application in automobile industry. In this study, the ductile fracture behavior of QP980 under complex stress states, covering shear, uniaxial tension, and plane strain tension, is investigated by conducting the hybrid experiment and simulation. The pressure-coupled Drucker yield function is chosen to characterize the effect of stress states on yielding for QP980, considering its high accuracy compared with the von Mises yield function. Failure limit of the stress states is modelled by five uncoupled ductile fracture criteria (Brozzo, Oh, Rice-Tracey, Ko-Huh, and DF2012). To improve the numerical prediction accuracy, the parameters of the constitutive model are optimized by using the inverse engineering approach. The numerical predicted results are compared with the experimental load-stroke curves with the onset of fracture. The comparison indicates that the prediction error of the DF2012 criterion is significantly lower than those of the other four criteria. In addition, the prediction accuracy is greatly improved with the parameters of the constitutive model optimized by the inverse engineering. |
