Multi-scale simulatietechnieken voor metaalbewerking (MuSTMeF)

This project aims at a breaktrough in modeling of AHSS. These steels are increasingly being used within the automotive industry but have a challenging forming behavior. An extremely fast crystal plasticity code will be used to derive macroscopically observable anisotropic plastic properties from complex 3D artificial multi-phase microstructures. this will be directly coupled to efficient Multi-Scale code, leading to numerically very efficient state-of-the-art models for forming processes of dual-phase steels. the resultant multi-scale material model will be demonstrated for realistic microstructures in an industrial FE-Code to predict product properties after forming of a large automotive part.
