Yield Curve Determination Using the Bulge Test Combined with Optical Measurement

Yield curves (true-stress vs. true-strain curves) describe a material’s work-hardening behavior during forming and are thus indispensable for all FE forming simulations. The most common and, at the moment, only standardized test for yield curve determination is the tensile test. The tensile test, however, has the disadvantage that only a relatively sma...
