Development and Testing of a Hot Stamped Axial Crush Member with Tailored Properties
(University of Waterloo, 2015-01-05)This thesis investigates the effect of tailoring the properties of a hot stamped axial crush rail consisting of a top hat cross-section on its crash response. The tailored hot stamping (THS) process is considered, in which ... -
Hot Stamping of a Boron Steel Side Impact Beam with Tailored Flange Properties - Experiments and Numerical Simulations
(University of Waterloo, 2015-10-01)The effect of tailoring of hot stamped components is investigated, specifically the introduction of a tailored (locally softened) flange within an otherwise martensitic hot formed side impact beam. The effect of tailoring ...
