The springback characteristics of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet was investigated in OSU draw/bend test. Springback is the elastically-driven change of shape of a part after forming and it should be estimated and controlled to manufacture more precise products in sheet forming. The demands are increasing for magnesium alloy sheet press forming, but the study on its springback characteristics is insufficient. Strip draw/bend tests were conducted with various conditions - die radius, sheet thickness and controlled tensile force. The springback angles were measured from 'sidewall curl' of deformed shape. The tendency of springback angle was observed from the tests.

The springback characteristics of AZ31B magnesium alloy sheet was investigated in OSU draw/bend test Springback is the elastically-driven change of shape of a part after forming and it should be estimated and controlled to manufacture more precise products in sheet forming. Magnesium alloy sheets have unique mechanical properties such as high in-plane anisotropy/asymmetry of yield stress and hardening response. So, there will be a difference in the prediction of springback with symmetric mechanical properties for magnesium alloy sheets. In this work, the Strip draw/bend tests were conducted with various conditions - die radius, sheet thickness and controlled tensile force and the tendency of springback angle was observed from the tests.

The time-dependent constitutive law was utilized based on viscoelastic-plasticity to predict the time-dependent spring-back behavior of aluminum alloy 6022-T4 sheets. Besides nonlinear viscoelasticity, non-quadratic anisotropic yield function, Yld2000-2d, was used to account for the anisotropic yield behavior, while the combined isotropic-kinematic hardening law was used to represent the Bauschinger effect and transient hardening. For verification purposes, finite element simulations were performed for the draw-bending and the results were compared with experimental results.
