摘要

In order to predict plastic material behavior for sheet forming processes by finite element simulation, shear tests are useful to identify material parameters. Since the existing shear test setups have certain disadvantages, a new twin bridge torsion shear test is proposed. Stress and strain calculation is derived from the presented geometrical features. The clamping situation and the shear gauge dimensions are investigated to evaluate the quality of the obtained flow curves. It is shown that this test specimen is suitable to determine anisotropic yield behavior and to characterize prestrained specimen, for instance due to cold rolling, when the yield locus is shifted by a backstress tensor.
