Abstract
This study aimed at providing an experimental database for the mechanical properties of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet such as stress-strain curve, yield stress, R-value and forming limit diagram(FLD) at various strain-rates and temperatures. Tensile tests were carried out on specimens having the orientations of $0^{\circ}$, $45^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ to the rolling direction with different crosshead speeds in the range between 0.008 and 8 mm/s at temperature from 25(room temperature) to $300^{\circ}C$. The influence of the specimen gage length on the tensile properties was investigated. FLD tests were performed at punch speed of 0.1 and 1.0 mm/s in the same temperature range as that of the tensile tests. Swift cup tests were conducted to verify the usefulness of the material database and the reliability of the finite element analysis(FEA). The effects of strain-rate as well as temperature were taken into account in these simulations. It was shown that the FLD-based failure was reasonably well predicted by the thermal-deformation coupled analysis for this rate-sensitive material.
