PT - JOURNAL ARTICLE AU - Michel, Jan AU - Bursak, Marian TI - Influence of the Strain Rate on the Notch Toughness of Cold-Forming Steels DP - 2004 Jun 30 TA - Communications - Scientific Letters of the University of Zilina PG - 34--36 VI - 6 IP - 2 AID - 10.26552/com.C.2004.2.34-36 IS - 13354205 AB - The paper analyses the influence of the strain rate with loading rates of 1.7.105 4.8 m.s1 on the notch toughness of hot-rolled microalloyed steels S 315 MC and S 460 MC and cold-rolled deep-drawing steels DC 06, H 220 B and H 220 P. It discusses a possibility of utilising a modified notched-bar impact test to predict the formability of these steels at high strain rates of thin steel sheets.
