Forming limit diagrams (FLDs) indicate the formability of materials which can be determined by experimental and finite element (FE) simulations. FLDs were determined experimentally by LDH test, utilizing optical strain measurement system for measuring the strains in different width specimens and by FE simulations in Interstitial Free (IF) and Interstitial Free High Strength (IFHS) steels. In this study, the experimental and FE simulated FLDs are compared and also the stress based FLDs were investigated.}, journal = {International Journal of Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering}, volume = {8}, number = {2}, year = {2014}, pages = {499 - 502}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10001901}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/86}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 86, 2014}, }
