Interpretation of surficial shear crack propagation mechanisms in bending for Zn or AlSi coated hot press forming steels

Abstract The bending angle at the peak load is regarded as the most important parameter for evaluating bending properties of hot-press-forming (HPF) steels. However, it is not a mechanics-based parameter for the bending criterion, and the data interpretation is difficult because bending criteria in...
