Keywords: Metal forming Product Properties
Metal forming is not only shaping the form of a product, it is also influencing its mechanical and physical properties over its entire volume. Advanced analysis methods recently enable accurate prediction of these properties and allow for setting these properties deterministically during the forming process. Effective measurement methods ensure the setting of these predicted properties. Several real examples demonstrate the impressive achievements and indicate the necessity of a paradigm change in designing products by including manufacturing-induced effects in the initial dimensioning. This paradigm change will lead to lightweight components and serve environmentally benign designs. ß 2015 CIRP.
1. Introduction Most of the energy embedded in a product is hidden in the primary energy of fabricating the material itself [7]. In this sense, metal forming is one of the most environmentally benign class of manufacturing processes due to its high material utilization [91]. Metal forming as ‘Net-Shape Manufacturing Process’ has been largely recognized as a process that shapes the final geometry of a product by plastic deformation. The fact that plastic deformation alters the mechanical properties of the product over its volume is not yet widely appreciated in design of products [24]. In the conventional cycle of product design, the designer develops the product geometry on the basis of specifications of loading conditions and material properties (material ability) of virgin materials (Fig. 1a). Due to uncertainties, a ‘safety factor’ greater than 1 is applied to the nominal load, resulting in an increase of dimensions in the final design, and embodying more energy than necessary. Generally, the manufacturing process is not considered in specifying the material ability in the design process although it can substantially alter this ability.

Back in 2002, Zeng et al. [234] demonstrated the described importance of including information about manufacturinginduced properties in a crash simulation. The simulation result in Fig. 2a is based on nominal thickness and material properties of virgin sheet metals and showed that severe buckling occurred in the middle of the supporting beam. Fig. 2b used the tube thickness obtained after hydro-forming and manufacturing-induced material properties in the crash simulation. The simulation predicted that buckling did not occur in the middle section, instead it occurred at the corner section. This is due to the fact that over 20%

thinning existed at the corner during the hydro-forming process. Fig. 2c shows a photo of the real crash test, which confirmed the results of the simulation which used information about the manufacturing-induced properties. Without knowing the influence of the manufacturing process on the material properties and thickness distribution, one would arbitrarily choose a high-value ‘safety factor’ to uniformly increase the thickness across the entire tube in order to be on the safe side. In order to close the gap between the product design and the manufacturing process, the specification of the material ability and after-forming dimensions have to be incorporated in the manufacturing process, as illustrated in Fig. 1b. Given the ability of metal forming in changing mechanical properties over the entire volume of the product, a great opportunity lies in the design process if one can take a holistic approach seamlessly integrating the design of forming processes and the design of a product. This requires, on the one hand, the prediction of these properties and, on the other hand, the control of these properties in the manufacturing process. The knowledge of local material properties such as strength, formability, damage, residual stresses, texture, and microstructure can be transferred to the early stages of manufacturing and tailor-made products can be manufactured. This approach delivers a high potential to provide the sound technological basis for selecting the realistic safety factor and, hence, lightweighting the product [213]. Metal forming consists of a process chain that primarily includes thermal and mechanical processing. Table 1 summarizes the mechanical, surface, and physical product properties that can be changed by these two types of processes. Table 1 Product properties changed during forming by thermal and mechanical processes.

Thermal processing consists of heat treatment processes. These processes are either applied before (annealing) or after the metal forming process (hardening or annealing). Sometimes the heat treatment is conducted together with the forming process: thermo-mechanical processing is basically used for semi-finished products (by primary forming processes), such as in rolling, extrusion, but also in part forming (secondary forming processes), such as in forging and hot stamping. Mechanical, surface, and physical product properties are finally set by cold forming processes, such as impact forging, wire drawing, roll forming, and sheet forming (Fig. 3). Machining and surface treatment processes occasionally follow the final metal forming process but basically influence only the near-surface properties. The objective of this paper is to reveal the potential of predicting and setting the mechanical and physical properties in metal formed products. Thermo-mechanical and metal forming

processes are in the focus and mere thermal processing is not covered by this paper. Several other properties, like Young’s modulus and density, that are not listed in Table 1 can be changed by plastic forming and heat treatment. However, these parameters are out of the scope of this paper. The starting point of this paper is a comprehensive knowledge about the metallurgical basis of material properties (Section 2). With the knowledge about the influencing mechanisms on the micro-scale, the prediction of macro-scale mechanical product properties during manufacturing processes becomes possible (Section 3). The achievement of the desired properties needs to be measured during the processes, requiring special monitoring techniques (Section 4). Several examples of forming processes and process chains, where the prediction and control of mechanical product properties during the forming process are already successfully performed, are reviewed (Section 5). Next, a paradigm change in the design process of products utilizing the manufacturing properties is proposed (Section 6). The paper is concluded by providing conclusions and an outlook. 2. Metallurgical basis of material properties The entire casting and deformation history has a strong influence on the mechanical and physical properties of the product achieved during forming as well as during the subsequent heat treatment operations. In general, the effects of the chemical composition of the material and mechanical process parameters on the product microstructure and final mechanical properties are very complex, but they can be simplified and conceptually illustrated as in Fig. 4. This multistep process sequence of converting a cast structure into a wrought one is often known in literature as thermomechanical treatment. This section aims at giving a basic review of the fundamental metallurgical phenomena affecting the mechanical properties of products formed under mechanical/thermomechanical processing conditions [98].

2.1. Chemical composition The chemical composition is a primary factor determining the physical properties of structural metals. On the basis of the chemical composition of the alloy and phase diagram characteristics, the

major strengthening mechanisms, such as solid solution, phase transformation, and/or precipitation hardening, can be predicted. Furthermore, the chemical composition controls the microstructure evolution including work hardening, dynamic recovery, dynamic recrystallization, static recovery, and static recrystallization resulting in the final grain size, rate of grain growth, formation of precipitates, rate of phase (e.g., ferrite) nucleation, rate of second phase grain growth, and so on. The composition-tailoring approach has been used in the development of different generations of sheet steels devoted to automotive applications, including three generations of Advanced High Strength Steels (AHSS). Fig. 5 indicates different automotive sheet steels developed in the last 30 years in which the chemical composition, structure, and phases were manipulated to create various combinations of ductility and strength. The area of the third generation of AHSS with yield strengths of over 2000 MPa and around 25% elongation is still under development.

Bauschinger effect, i.e. the lower magnitude of the yield stress after load reversal, and the absence of hardening after a load reversal are explained by the interaction of dislocations in cell-block boundaries (Fig. 6) [163]. Cell-block boundaries (CBBs) are planar arrangements of dislocations with a high relative dislocation density. According to Peeters et al. [163], dislocations with opposing Burgers vector are stopped on either side of the CBB (Fig. 6b). Upon load reversal, dislocations originally located within the core of the CBB, dislocations at the boundary and dislocations between two neighboring CBBs interact. Due to the different Burgers vector or polarity of these dislocations, annihilation takes place. This leads to the observed transients in hardening. Obviously such phenomena affect the product properties after plastic forming significantly.

2.3. Damage
Another example of the use of the composition-tailoring approach is given by low-alloyed steels, such as the C–Si–Mn steels, added with micro-alloying elements, such as Nb and/or V, which retard the recrystallization and grain growth since they form carbides that precipitate at the grain boundaries during forming at the elevated temperature. Therefore, this precipitation enables these micro-alloyed steels to retain higher strengths when cooled in the air after hot deformation, and, consequently, eliminates the need for quenching and tempering treatments. A similar precipitation induced hardening approach is frequently used in nonferrous metals, where the alloying elements are used to control the recrystallization kinetics or phase transformation leading to higher hardness and strength.
The prediction of failure and the knowledge of failure mechanisms are essential for successful design. Failure of a manufactured part means that it is not capable to maintain one of its functions. A classic case of mechanical failure is the occurrence of cracks in a sheet metal part. Before part failure, physical phenomena occur covering local material failure development that leads finally to part failure. As a working definition, all phenomena which contribute to the mechanical weakening of the material due to the existence or propagation of defects are summarized as damage. Common defects with such a weakening effect on different scales are: voids, cavities, micro cracks, and shear bands. Metal forming changes the damage level of workpieces and this effect can be predicted and controlled.
2.2. Work hardening
2.4. Recovery, recrystallization, and grain growth
Plastic deformation of crystalline materials is a function of active slip systems, which provide the ability for the dislocation motion [45]. During plastic deformation, dislocations propagate from the source, interact and stick to each other as well as with solutes/ precipitate particles and pile up at grain boundaries. The dislocation density, which is the amount of the length of dislocations per unit volume, increases as the plastic deformation increases, and this can be seen as the quantitative description of the plastic deformation from the metallurgical viewpoint. It lies roughly between 108 cm/ cm3 (annealed state) and >1012 cm/cm3 (cold deformed state) in steels. Resistance to the motion of dislocations increases due to the increase in interactions between dislocations and other dislocations, grain boundaries, precipitations, and other defects. The metallurgical phenomenon of work hardening is the effect of the mentioned dislocations’ interactions during forming. Different hardening mechanisms become relevant for loading involving one or more strain path changes. Inter-granular and intra-granular inhomogeneities lead to transient work hardening. Phenomena such as the Bauschinger effect [20], the retardation of hardening after loading path changes, and increases of the yield stress after certain types of loading path changes (e.g., cross hardening), are induced by the interaction of different populations of dislocation during quasi-static loading of common metals at the room temperature [89,174]. Oriented dislocation structures develop in metals during plastic deformation. The intra-granular
During forming processes carried out under hot conditions and possible soaking at different levels of elevated temperatures, metallurgical phenomena such as recovery, recrystallization, and grain growth, which are governed by diffusion, do play a role during and after deformation. Recovery reduces the energy stored in the deformed grains by a rearrangement of defects in their crystal structure and is a necessary prerequisite for recrystallization to take place. Recrystallization is the metallurgical phenomenon that allows replacing deformed grains by small dislocation free equiaxed grains at elevated temperatures. There are basically two types of recrystallization: static/metadynamic recrystallization, that occurs after plastic deformation during exposure to elevated temperature, and dynamic recrystallization, that occurs during plastic deformation at the elevated temperature. Grain growth may occur after deformation at the high temperature to further decrease the stored energy by reducing the grain boundaries extension. The effect of dynamic recovery and recrystallization on the flow stress at elevated temperatures has been studied and the role of the Stacking Fault Energy (SFE) is widely reported in literature. For the specific range of temperatures and strain rates, the balance between the two competing mechanisms of work hardening and softening can be achieved resulting in a usually constant flow stress and significantly improved ductility. Numerous studies in literature report the effect of the microstructure evolution and its influence on mechanical properties [193,208].

2.5. Phase transformation and precipitation Phase transformation may take place during and after plastic deformation, both at the room and the elevated temperature. As an example, Fig. 7 shows that the microstructure of a carbon steel after hot forming may change widely on the basis of the hot forming and interpass (the state between two forming stages) parameters, resulting in different phases like ferrite, pearlite, bainite, and/or martensite depending on the applied cooling conditions [45]. Phase transformation can also be driven by straining, as it happens for some classes of steels, where the forming history dependent phenomenon of Transformation Induced Plasticity (TRIP) takes place, leading to the formation of a complex microstructure characterized by high combination of ductility and strength (see Fig. 5).
Fig. 7. Microstructural evolution of carbon steels during and after hot forming [227].
The principle of microstructure control in aluminum alloys at the elevated temperature is similar to steels in terms of control of recrystallization during interpasses. But, as aluminum is not subjected to phase transformation during cooling, the microstructure controlling strategy during cooling is quite different from that of steels. In case of aluminum alloys, solution treatment and aging are used to control the size and distribution of precipitates and intermetallic particles, which, in turn, are responsible for the final properties of aluminum alloys products [57].

Thermo-mechanical processing for microstructure and mechanical property control It is evident from the metallurgical phenomena described above that different metal products with various mechanical properties can be manufactured by controlling their microstructures making use of processes combining large plastic deformation and controlled cooling. The thermo-mechanical process should be designed accordingly, in terms of deformation and cooling conditions, besides the choice of the proper chemical composition of the alloy. In this context, the material ‘microstructure’ occupies the intermediate position in the chain between the ‘process’ and the ‘mechanical properties’. For example, in case of rolling, to obtain a product with adequate mechanical properties, the sequential hot rolling process conditions must be controlled by properly selecting the hot rolling parameters, such as thickness reduction, rolling speed, rolling temperature, and interpass time, as well as the cooling conditions in terms of temperature history, cooling rate, and cooling shutdown temperature. The temperature history of such a combined process is schematically shown in the CCT diagram in Fig. 9. The temperature history of a conventional hot rolling process is represented by line (1). Graphs (2)–(4) are the temperature histories of the thermomechanical processing of plate rolling, whereas (5)–(7) are the temperature histories of ausforming processes.
2.6. Development and role of texture Crystallographic texture represents a preferred crystallographic orientation of the grains in a polycrystalline material. Examples of strong textures can be found in cold deformed wires and cold rolled sheets, which present a crystallographic orientation in the same direction as the main deformation and show a measurable degree of anisotropy. Both the presence of texture and its intensity have a significant influence on the material physical properties, leading to performances close to the ones of a single crystal in case of strong anisotropy. On the contrary, a material characterized by a random grain orientation exhibits isotropic physical properties. Texture plays a very important role in controlling quality and properties of semi-finished and finished products. For example, the use of aluminum sheets characterized by planar anisotropy close to zero allows manufacturing beverage cans with limited earing defect (Section 5.3); electric silicon steel sheets with a reduced anisotropy present reduced magnetic hysteresis useful for manufacturing of transformer cores (Section 5.6). The mechanical strength of a part after forming is also strongly influenced by the texture since the hardening behavior of the metals varies on the basis of the plastic anisotropy. The local texture, also known as micro-texture, is formed as a material response to localized straining and can be characterized in forged and extruded parts by the Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) technique, compare Section 4.2. This relatively new tool allows better understanding and control of metal forming operations, which results in controlling the physical properties of products. An example of application of the EBSD technique is shown in Fig. 8, which presents h1 0 0i texture of individual streams

3. Prediction methods Various models of different complexity and predictive capabilities are now available for determining the product properties after metal forming and in combination with heat treatment processes. Prediction of the product properties is usually fulfilled in two steps. The first step comprises the modeling of mechanical response and microstructure evolution during processing, whereas the second step tends to provide the correlation between the microstructural parameters of the material and the in-service properties of the product. The objective of this section is to provide a classification and a brief description of available models with respect to their predictive capabilities and computing costs, having in mind prospective applications.

3.1. Classification and prospective application of models Historically, up to the 1990’s, modeling of metal forming followed a phenomenological approach, which did not distinguish between phenomena occurring at various dimensional scales and did not account directly for the material microstructure. The first developed approaches were based on analytical methods, such as the slab [27] and upper bound methods [13], which were used for the calculation of the macro-scale parameters in metal forming, namely the strain and stress fields, usually using empirical constitutive laws to describe the material mechanical response to deformation. At the same time, Johnson–Mehl–Avrami–Kolmogorow (JMAK) based models [14] were developed further to predict the microstructure evolution, and phenomenological damage models were introduced to predict the fracture occurrence, e.g., [38,80], but without being coupled with the material mechanical response. Since the early 1970’s, the Finite Element Method (FEM) has become the most popular simulation technique in metal forming [114]. Subsequently, alternative numerical methods were developed, such as the Boundary Element Method (BEM) or the Finite Volume Method (FVM), but FEM still remains the most popular approach to estimate metal flow and forces during forming. In their earlier formulations, these numerical methods made use of empirical laws (Section 3.2) to describe the material behavior and predict the macro-scale state parameters, including the temperature field. Starting from the late 1990’s, microstructural models, both phenomenological and physically-based, have been implemented into the FE codes making it possible to carry out fully coupled thermal-mechanical-microstructural simulations [168], giving rise to new challenges in modeling materials processing since they allowed to predict the evolution of the microstructural constituents (Section 3.3). At the beginning of the 21st century, the prediction of phenomena accounting explicitly for the granular structure of polycrystals was the main challenge, which led to the development of polycrystalline modeling of material behavior allowing fully multi-scale predictive models (Section 3.4). In multi-scale modeling, FE codes are still used to predict the macro-scale parameters, but they are coupled with discrete methods, such as the phase-field approach, Cellular Automata (CA), Monte Carlo (MC), or Molecular Dynamics (MD), which account for the behavior of each microstructural constituent at the micro-scale level [6,130]. The symbiotic relationship between modeling granularity or fidelity and the computational efficiency is shown pictorially in Fig. 10, where efficient applications of these models are shown at the bottom of the plot. As expected, the increase of the models’ predictive capabilities results in increasing computing costs.

determine microstructural changes, and derive relationships between microstructure and the resulting product properties using regression analysis. A widely used empirical relationship is the HallPetch equation that relates the yield stress (initial flow stress) and ultimate tensile strength (UTS) inversely to the square root of the grain size [1]. Consequently, the yield stress increases as the grain size is refined. However, it has been noted that, for very small grain sizes (in the nanometer range), yield stress falls with reducing grain size. This is known as the ‘inverse Hall-Petch relationship’. For low carbon steels (C < 0.2%) produced as flat hot rolled products, Pickering [167] proposed well-known empirical equations that relate chemical compositions and grain diameters to the yield and ultimate strengths, and elongations in the rolling and transverse directions. He provided the relations for low carbon low-alloy mild steels, low carbon ferritic-pearlitic steels including high-strength low-alloy steel (HSLA), and medium-high carbon ferrite-pearlite steels. Using a similar empirical approach, Gladman [66] derived the relations between composition, thermal processing, and mechanical properties for air hardening microalloyed steels produced as hot rolled bars or sheets. These relations are also applicable to medium carbon (0.35 < C < 0.50%) vanadium, niobium, and/or titanium modified micro-alloy steels used in forgings. Due to structural transformations during rapid cooling and tempering, these relations are not available for Quenched and Tempered (Q&T) steels. Fig. 11 shows a schematic of the computer assisted transition from microstructure and chemical composition to stress-strain curves. In this investigation, 15 kinds of steel sheets with different chemical compositions and phases like ferrite, pearlite, martensite, and bainite are tested, and they are integrated in the prediction system for stress-strain curve at cold state by using the mixture rules. The coefficients of the Swift equation for flow stress can be predicted by the state of the microstructure (grain size, phases, etc.) and the empirical equations for various steel grades. Similar empirical equations were obtained for monolithic bainitic and martensitic structures. The kinetic properties of a ferrite-pearlite structure can be estimated by the mixture rules, but they cannot reflect the morphologies of steels.

3.2. Empirical models The simplest approach to predict mechanical properties of formed products is to carry out controlled forming experiments,
Constitutive laws implemented in the models of metal forming processes are used to relate the process parameters to the material flow stress [169], to the evolution of microstructural features and phenomena, such as the grain size [160], phase transformations [48,117], precipitation kinetics [50], and to the damage evolution [231], which, in turn, provide the basis for the prediction of the mechanical properties in the product, such as yield strength and ductility, fatigue and fracture resistance. When processing under cold conditions, the modeling of material texture assumes importance, especially in case of sheet forming processes [34]. The constitutive laws describing the material flow behavior and evolution of microstructural characteristics, including damage, can be broadly classified into statistical, phenomenological, and mechanistic models [63]. Statistical models: Statistical models require a large amount of experimental data to derive a mathematical relationship through regression fitting between the independently varied process

parameters and the resulting microstructural features. For multivariable analysis, well known statistical techniques, such as the Design of Experiments (DOE), Response Surface Method (RSM), and analysis of variance (ANOVA), are used for selecting the most suitable process parameters (e.g., heat treatment parameters [125]). The statistical models are effective for process optimization at reasonable computational costs, however, they present several drawbacks, e.g., the experimental data may mask second order or coupling effects making it difficult to capture fundamental physics, the lack of prior knowledge on the dominant metallurgical phenomena makes the selection of a suitable fitting function rather difficult, and the extrapolation outside the range of the process parameters used for their validation may introduce considerable prediction errors. The first two drawbacks may be mitigated using Artificial Neural Network (ANN), based on multivariable non-linear regression models. Recently, phenomenabased ANN models have been developed to predict material transformations with higher accuracy [23]. Phenomenological models: The phenomenological models define the relationships between the process variables and the microstructural characteristics, making use of equations describing microstructural phenomena, such as recovery, recrystallization, grain growth, and precipitation, even if not directly derived from fundamental theory. These models are implemented into the process models to predict the evolution of the microstructural state and, possibly, the mechanical properties in the product, both off-line and in-line, e.g., in hot rolling of rods and strips [160,166]. They have two main drawbacks: first, their material parameters have to be determined empirically, and second the form of the regression fit may not capture the possible changes in the underlying microstructural phenomena. Most of the phenomenological microstructural models are based on the JMAK theory [14] or further modifications for a more accurate description of recrystallization, phase transformation, and precipitation kinetics, with particular emphasis on strain induced precipitation [51]. In case of most non-ferrous alloys, the description of precipitation hardening that may take place during the deformation process itself or the heat treatment becomes mandatory for the prediction of the product properties. Phenomenological models used to describe damage evolution and fracture when a damage variable reaches a critical value are based on fracture mechanics [134], which is usually derived from energy calculation assuming that the deforming material is porous-free [43,159]. Although the damage variable is history dependent, it is not coupled to deformation and it does not modify the yield function. However, the easy calibration and implementation of fracture mechanics models into FE codes favors their wide utilization. The basic challenge in fracture mechanics is that displacements are discontinuous through the crack, and more accurate modeling needs special techniques such as remeshing, meshless or extended FE method (xFEM) to model this discontinuity. Mechanistic models provide the fundamental understanding of the physics governing the phenomena involved in the process to be modeled. Mechanistic models have the ability to extrapolate beyond their calibration range as long as the controlling phenomenon remains unchanged. Their major drawback lies in a large amount of computational resources usually needed to solve even the simplest problems. They can present different levels of complexity, from the mentioned Hall-Petch relationship for the yield strength prediction, to strain and strain rate hardening models based on dislocation mechanics, crystal plasticity models based on texture evolution [175], and the more recent phase field approach. Internal Variable Methods (IVM) are models based on dislocation mechanics: they combine the material flow stress with the microstructure, being the dislocation density as the measure of the material deformation. In IVM, the material response is a function of external variables, internal variables, and time, therefore accounting for the process history. Single internal variable models, accounting for the average
dislocation density, are based on the fundamental works of Mecking and Kocks [139], Estrin and Mecking [58], and Sandstro¨m and Lagneborg [184], but approaches based on two state variables, three state variables, and distribution function for dislocation density have been recently introduced [176,178]. The capability to describe the material behavior and microstructural evolution during the interpass time between subsequent deformation steps and prediction of product properties combined with reasonably low computing costs are the main advantages of the IVM models (Fig. 12).
Fig. 12. Mechanistic models.
In recent years, the phase field approach [148] has emerged as one of the most powerful methods for modeling many types of microstructure-evolution processes, including the austenite decomposition. The phase-field model treats a polycrystalline system, containing both bulk and boundary regions, in an integral manner. Mechanistic models to predict fracture are void-growth based criteria and Continuum Damage Mechanics (CDM) based criteria; the former predicts the evolution of voids in porous ductile materials and uses analytical formulae describing isolated unit cells with voids under remote stress and strain fields. Since local stresses at micro-scale may differ from the stresses at macro level, a partial insight into the underlying micro mechanisms is needed for fracture modeling, see Gurson’s model [80] and its improvement by Tvergaard–Needleman [153]. On the other hand, in the framework of CDM, according to [104], the amount of damage can be characterized by the area fraction of voids at the considered cross section. Chaboche proposed a similar approach [38], using Young’s modulus in the definition of damage. Models based on CDM modify both the yield function and the elastic behavior as the deformation and damage progress, thus providing a full coupling with the material constitutive behavior [124,231]. 3.4. Multi-scale, multi-physics, and multi-resolution models Multi-physics and multi-resolution models are located at the right top corner in Fig. 10. These models have wide predictive capabilities and are considered the most novel solutions in the field of metal forming. On the other hand, they require very long computing times, which may reduce their practical application. The idea of the multi-scale approach is applied now in all novel solutions involving multi-physics and multi-resolution problems. Multi-scale modeling is carried out for the purpose of capturing fundamental aspects of the material behavior under heterogeneous deformation. Nano- and micro-scale models based on discrete methods are introduced to describe mechanisms such as grain boundary sliding and rotation, interactions between dislocations and grain boundaries, micro-cracks initiation and propagation, and many more. As a consequence, several inaccessible deformation modes can be simulated by the unified constitutive equations. The general idea of the multi-scale modeling is presented briefly below, whereas more details can be found in [31,130].

Fig. 13. Multi-scale modeling: upscaling models and concurrent multi-scale computing.
The methods are usually classified into two groups: upscaling methods and concurrent multi-scale computing (Fig. 13). In the upscaling class of methods, constitutive models at higher scales are constructed from observations at lower, more elementary scales by employing the concept of Representative Volume Element (RVE). The computational homogenization methods [147] are considered to belong to this group. Simulation of dynamic recrystallization during hot rolling using FE in the macro scale and CA method in the micro scale [64], so-called CAFE method, is a typical example of the upscaling approach. In concurrent multi-scale computing, the problem is solved simultaneously at several scales by an a priori decomposition of the computational domain. Two-scale methods, whereby the decomposition is made into coarse and fine scales, have been considered so far. The method used in the fine scale is applied to a part of the whole domain of the solution. It can be either the same method, which is used in the coarse scale, for example, the FE method, or it can be a discrete method (CA, MC). In the former case, the extended finite element (xFEM) and the multi-scale extended finite element (MS-xFEM) methods can be distinguished. An approach presented in [93] for incremental bulk metal forming is an example of the concurrent computing. Cellular Automata (CA) is one of the commonly used methods for modeling micro scale phenomena. The CA lattice of cells represents a two- or three-dimensional microstructure and reproduces topological relations between grains. These relations include the length of the grain boundaries as well as selected properties, e.g., misorientations. The state of each CA cell is described by the state variables, each cell is described by its state and the values of the internal (state) variables. The state of the cell at each time step is controlled by the transition rules [225]. The CA method was widely used in various fields of research, and in metal forming, it was successively applied to simulate strain localization [132], dynamic recrystallization [84], cold deformation and annealing [129], and other phenomena. Monte Carlo (MC) is a general name for a group of algorithms based on a random sampling of a solutions space V for application in mathematical and physical simulations [62]. In the case of microstructure evolution models, the algorithm usually follows an iterative procedure over a computational domain composed of lattice sites in a specific defined orientation (state). In the first step, a random lattice site is selected and the energy for that site is computed. In the second step, the selected lattice site is reoriented to the orientation chosen randomly from possible states. The new site orientation is accepted when the new energy is not higher than the previous one. With successive MC steps, the energy value of the entire system is reduced, and, e.g., the digital microstructure with clearly visible grains can be observed. The MC method is very similar to the CA method and has analogous advantages when modeling of material properties is considered. However, the MC method uses arbitrary units and the basic rule for this method is energy minimization. On the contrary, the CA technique uses physical units and it cooperates with analytical equations, thus it provides greater possibility for practical applications.

The Digital Material Representation (DMR) approach allows a description of real material morphology with different micro scale features directly included (e.g., precipitates, inclusions, big and small grains, grain boundaries, crystallographic grains orientations, phases boundaries). DMR can be defined as a material description, based on measurable quantities, which provides the link between the simulation and the experiment (Fig. 14) [194]. The DMR allows a virtual analysis of real material behavior, while errors of calculations are minimized [207]. Numerical models based on the DMR give more detailed predictions than those based on conventional closed form or differential equations based approaches because they take into account complex microstructure morphologies in an explicit manner during simulation [131]. The validation of simulation results obtained by DMR can be done using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) combined with an in-situ tensile test inside a scanning electron microscope, which allows the observation of microstructure deformation during loading [128]. Molecular Dynamics (MD) is another simulation method, which is extensively applied at the atomistic level. Applications are found for simulating plastic damage [127] or the interface and lubricant behavior [229].
Fig. 14. General idea of the Digital Material Representation.
Multi-resolution models belong to the concurrent computing group, as well. Recent work has successfully integrated material design with the shear instability or final fatigue/fracture properties [54,137], and subsequent stress collapse. The former is responsible for dynamic adiabatic shear band propagation and are captured by including the effects of shear driven micro void damage in a single constitutive model [138]. The multi-resolution approach improves not only the speed but also the accuracy, to which the final behavior of complex materials and material systems designs through the forming processes can be predicted. The physics is captured at different resolutions, for example, void mechanics, dislocation mechanics, dislocation density, fracture prediction, damage accumulation, material localization, and fatigue life, see Fig. 15.

Embedded constitutive models implicitly predict scale separation through homogenization such that scale specific physics can be retained without modeling explicitly, history variables such as volume fraction can be tracked at their respective levels, the impact of mesh dependence and traditional scale separation issues are reduced, and inhomogeneous deformation can be analyzed naturally. The theory was used to predict the fracture behavior and improve the fracture toughness of steel alloys designed by experimentally reconstructing the microstructure of the materials to yield a hybrid multi-scale mechanics-experimental analysis, as shown in Fig. 16 [215].

3.5. Deterministic and probabilistic predictions Multi-physics modeling allows capturing different physical phenomena that may arise during the technological process. Typical processes that require multi-physics simulation tools are welding, solid structure interactions, or solidification. As far as metal forming is concerned, thermal-mechanical-microstructural coupling has been used for decades to capture various phenomena occurring during deformation [169]: Fig. 17 represents this coupling, which employs FE models to describe the mechanical and thermal phenomena, while a variety of methods described above is used to account for the microstructural phenomena. As new forming processes are emerging that exploit energy means different from the mechanical one (e.g., electro-magnetic forming [171] or electroplasticity-based processes [44]), the effects of the electrical or magnetic fields on the material behavior, both in terms of mechanical response to deformation and microstructural evolution, can be captured only if fully coupled multi-physics models are developed.
Process uncertainty, variance, and risk: Experimental evaluation of product properties and performance shows considerable variance or scatter in the results. Knowledge discovery models [3] have been used in investigating the role of material and process uncertainty in scatter. A simple approach is to introduce uncertainty in a deterministic process model through variance in the material and process properties and constants. Alternatively, the material and process constants can be taken as statistical distributions: often assumed to be normally distributed with two independent parameters (mean and variance). Using established methodology of statistics, material (mechanical properties and microstructure) and process (friction, die velocities, blank holder pressure, etc.) variance can be converted to variance in the product properties and tolerance. Material and process uncertainties in forming processes can also have considerable influence on the fatigue and fracture performance of safety-critical parts. The failure of these parts can lead to the failure of the entire system, increasing societal risk. In developing models for such applications, forming models have to be linked to the probabilistic models of system performance. An example of such a probabilistic model is the hierarchical Bayesian model developed for estimating failure risk in hot forging of a titanium aeroengine disc with hard alpha inclusions, see Section 5.5. An alternative approach is to explicitly model the cause of failure, such as inclusion or voids, to model their evolution of voids during processing, and to model their effect on product failure. Many higher level methods have been developed for modeling defects such as level set methods and multi-body methods. Examples of probabilistic design and process reliability in sheet metal forming control include those of Zhang et al. [235]. 4. Property monitoring A large number of measurement principles is available for the determination of mechanical properties. Table 2 summarizes

Process optimization: While most of the effort in process or die optimization in metal forming uses FE based approaches, these efforts are often ‘‘trial’’ and ‘‘error’’ type. More formal use of the design methodology and artificial intelligence (AI) in the optimal design of a die or a forming process include sensitivity analysis (e.g. in the design of hot rolling passes [102]), genetic algorithmic search (e.g. optimal design of drawing dies [179] and multi-stage processes [180]), knowledge based design, ANN, fuzzy reasoning [200] and reverse engineering. Metamodeling is commonly used in optimization, as well [116].

applicable measurement principles and categorizes them according their capability into in-situ or offline as well as destructive (DT) or nondestructive (NDT) specimen testing. A measurement principle is categorized as in-situ if process control is feasible without specimen sampling and if the evaluation time is shorter than the time during which process parameters change significantly. For an offline measurement, the specimen is sampled and investigated outside the production line. Hence, the evaluation time can be longer than the time during which process parameters change [109]. In the following sections, selected new methods of measurement that are significant for the determination of mechanical properties in metal formed products will be discussed.

4.1. Measurement principles of surface morphology
4.3. Measurement principles for yield strength
Surface morphology is usually determined by mechanical or optical means. An often-used principle for surface observation, with a topography resolution between 0.1 nm and 100 mm [74], is white-light interference microscopy (WLIM). By using chromatic white light (CWLIM), an inline measurement is possible due to the omission of the measurement orthogonal to the surface. CWLIM is a non-destructive method and is based on the evaluation of different wavelength intensities depending on the surface topography (Fig. 18).
Yield strength measuring procedures are required to characterize new materials or to ensure that properties correlate with the ones assumed during product dimensioning, respectively. Due to the fact that the measuring procedure is heavily dependent on the field of application, many different measuring procedures are available. The procedures can be grouped by the type of load (tension, compression, bending, shearing, and torsion) and the stress time (quick, steady, abruptly and oscillating). Most of the procedures are destructive and cannot be used for in-situ measurements (see Table 2). An approach to measure the yield strength of cold formed products locally is using hardness measurements [214]. Fig. 20 shows the determination of the strength of a cold extruded rod. The hardness values are converted to the strength by
Fig. 18. Schematic of a chromatic-confocal displacement sensor [103].
Another non-destructive principle for surface roughness is laser triangulation. This technique bears on the measurement of elapsed time of laser light or the detection of different light intensities due to reflection [198]. As a result of using laser light in combination with fast data processing, this method is useable for an in-situ measurement. The same applies to the photometric technique [157]. In contrast, near field scanning optical microscopy, with a lateral resolution better than 80 nm [191] is, based on its elaborated test setup, only useable offline [112]. 4.2. Measurement procedures for microstructures Measurement procedures for microstructures, like the electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), are essential for understanding material behavior during a forming process and the resulting properties. EBSD is founded on the physical principle that accelerated electrons get characteristically diffracted when striking crystallographic planes. EBSD has become a well-established technique in order to obtain crystallographic information, such as structure and orientation, from samples. A new method for analyzing microstructure evolution of aluminum during deformation (dynamic recrystallization) is presented by Gu¨zel [81]. In this case, the determination of microstructure serves to estimate the hardness of final aluminum profiles (see Section 5.1). EBSD itself is a nondestructive procedure. However, for analyzing grain structure evolution, a section needs to be prepared, whereby the procedure could not be classified as non-destructive. In Fig. 19, the combined configuration of a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a focused ion beam (FIB) for microstructure analysis is given. This arrangement has the benefit that high resolution and high contrast can be obtained.

where HV is the Vickers hardness number and s f is the flow stress at an offset of strain e = 0.112. This method is offline and nondestructive if the strength is measured on the surface of the product and destructive if measured in the interior. A recently developed online method based on X-ray diffraction [77,99] allows the measurement of surface stresses during plastic deformation. The application of this novel technology as presented in [78] to a bending process is shown in Fig. 21. Magneto-inductive testing is a NDT procedure for the in-situ measurement of hardness or UTS. The method is based on the correlation of electro-magnetic eddy current parameters and mechanical material characteristics. By the so-called harmonics

both cases, the measurements provide the data for the calibration of models predicting the material formability. 4.5. Measurement of residual stresses
4.4. Measurement principles for defect and damage detection Several non-destructive techniques are available to detect defects (cracks) and damage [209] inside a component after the production process. Vibrometry and acoustic emission are based on the observation that a defect part has a different acoustic fingerprint than an undamaged part [108,110]. Both procedures are basically capable for inline quality assurance. Certainly, due to external vibrations, examination may have to be conducted outside the production line (offline). Another common procedure to detect defects is the use of micro-sections. Owing to the fact that the generation is time-consuming and it is a DT procedure, it only can be used offline. In contrast to that, thermography is a non-destructive and noncontact method to analyze subsurface defects in almost all materials by detecting emitted infrared radiation. For detecting defects, the component needs to be thermally activated. In the case of active thermography, the thermal load is applied by an external heat source [75], in the case of passive thermography, the heat is generated due to the conversion of mechanical energy (e.g., ultrasonic waves) into thermal energy [79]. Due to the fact that different materials have various thermal coefficients, which lead to different heat fluxes and subsequently to different surface temperatures, defects are detectable. In Fig. 22, a schematic test setup for an active thermography observation is given.
Fig. 22. Test setup for an active thermography observation [9].
Like thermography, ultrasonic testing is a non-destructive technique. The procedure is based on the interpretation of reflected ultrasonic waves. For undamaged regions, it is typical that there is only a front surface and back wall echo. In case of an existing damage, an additional wave is reflected or the back wall echo is reflected earlier. By analyzing several process parameters also the depth of damage can be deduced. To launch the waves into a specimen, a coupling medium is almost always required [28]. The coupling medium can be placed on the surface or the whole specimen is placed in a liquid [21]. Since it is not always possible to use a coupling medium, air-coupled varieties have also been developed [28]. Thereby, the application of ultrasonic testing is capable for inline measuring [46,88]. Computed-tomography (CT) is a radiographic inspection principle. Like all radiographic testing, CT is a NDT technique. This technique relies on the measurement of the intensity of Xrays, which is affected by the density distribution in a defective specimen (e.g., flaws or cavities). In contrast to conventional X-ray studies (two-dimensional images) CT compiles a volumetric image of the specimen [67]. Beside fault detection, CT is also useable for three-dimensional geometrical form surveying [152]. By using micro experimental setups, in-situ measurements are feasible [120]. In the field of metal forming, the main area of application of the micro-CT is the characterization of damage evolution and ductile fracture in terms of identification of nucleation, growth and coalescence of micro-voids. This technique can be applied either during the deformation itself in order to track the progression of damage as it evolves, providing in-situ measurements [120], or after fixed levels of deformation in order to evaluate the accumulated damage, providing ex-situ measurements [107]. In
Due to the fact that a considerable part of the total stresses during operation are residual stresses, their observation is important. Two techniques are mostly used. One is the hole-drilling. The principle is, due to small hole-diameters, a semi-destructive technique [101]. By drilling a hole in the surface, existing stresses will relax. This relaxation can be detected using, e.g., strain gauges. As the deformations are small, this technique requires expertise. On the other hand, X-ray diffraction (XRD) is an NDT which is applicable in an industrial environment. To determine residual stresses by XRD, an X-ray beam is adjusted to the surface. Due to diffraction on crystallographic planes, the beam is characteristically reflected as a function of the Bragg angle. Differently orientated planes cause different diffraction patterns on a detector. By comparing the pattern of an unloaded specimen with that of one with residual stresses, the value of the residual stresses can be determined. Likewise, an NDT method is the measurement of residual stresses by ultrasonic waves (UW) [101]. This method is based on the fact that the travel time of UW is dependent on the stress. By knowing the travel time of UW in an unstressed specimen, changes in the stress level can be determined.
5. Application to forming processes Products are manufactured in process chains. The final product properties are influenced at the beginning by producing the semifinished products such as sheets, wires, and profiles. Subsequent changes of properties occur in component forming processes such as forging, stamping, and bending. Dependent on the temperature, the forming processes are divided into thermo-mechanical and mechanical processes, in which different principles govern the final properties. The following examples cover the controlling and prediction of hardness, formability, anisotropy, residual stresses, damage, and electromagnetic properties (Fig. 23). Besides rolling, extrusion and severe plastic deformation processes to manufacture semifinished goods, also the possibilities of forging, stamping, and bending techniques are summarized to enhance the product quality through defined product characteristics.
Fig. 23. Overview of discussed properties and processes.
5.1. Product property: Hardness Beyond the shaping of products, several forming processes are designed to obtain a predefined hardness distribution. The following examples depict the setting of hardness through thermo-mechanical processing. In this context, the processes such as hot forging, thermo-mechanical rolling, hot stamping, and hot

extrusion present the effect of controlled grain size and volume fractions on mechanical strength properties. Hardness control in hot forging: The prediction of hardness and control of microstructure of steel alloys during hot forging processes has been in the focus of research for decades. Wang et al. [224] deliver empirical formulae (see Section 3.1) for the microstructural effects during multi-stage hot forging of microalloyed steel and set them into correlation with the resulting workpiece hardness. The formulae are incorporated into the thermo-coupled rigid-plastic FEM code DEFORM-2D. Starting from an expression for the austenite grain size as a function of forging temperature and holding time, the volume fraction of ferrite grain Vf is obtained: V f ¼ 13:6 þ 0:5 mm=Dg 5:5 s=K u
(2)
here Dg is the austenite grain size in mm and u the cooling rate. The relation between Vickers hardness HV and volume fraction of ferrite grain is expressed by: HV ¼ 281 103 V f
(3)
The complete forging process can be modeled by combining the FEA with the analytical grain size estimation model for each time step. Fig. 24 shows the comparison of simulated and experimental hardness distribution in a workpiece obtained by a four-stage forging process.

Yukawa et al. [232] present a so-called Virtual Laboratory System (VLS) for the FEM-based calculation of recrystallization and precipitation behavior as well as the transformation behavior of steel during forging processes. The strength distribution of the final product is predicted. The VLS consists of different modules covering different aspects of a hot forging process of medium carbon steel adding the micro alloying element vanadium. Fig. 25 shows the different VLS modules, which are based on different thermodynamical and mechanical equations (see Section 3.3).

The VLS is used for the analysis of a forging process aiming at manufacturing of graded products that combine high strength and good machinability. Fig. 26 shows exemplary temperature-timecourses for the fabrication of graded workpieces.

Microstructure control in thermo-mechanical rolling: A process specifically designed to control the product – especially microstructural – properties, is called thermo-mechanical (TM) rolling. TM rolling is not only used to obtain the desired final shape of the product but is also an important tool to influence the final strength. Important properties that are tailored by the rolling process are microstructure in terms of grain size and phase composition. Conventionally, reheating and quenching are employed used after hot rolling to obtain the final product properties. TM rolling aims at achieving the final product properties during hot rolling, circumventing further processing. The microstructure is very sensitive to the process parameters, and thus understanding and controlling the influence of the process parameters, hence, is crucial for obtaining the desired product properties [158]. A typical TM rolling setup consists of a reheating furnace, a reversing roughing mill, a finishing mill, a runout table for laminar cooling, and, finally, a down coiler. To illustrate the enormous possibilities for varying the process parameters (rolling schedule, cooling temperatures and rates, etc.) the process chain to manufacture a crash box starting with the finishing mill is shown in Fig. 28. The mechanical property control is mainly achieved in the finishing mill and by laminar cooling afterwards. The influence of both will now briefly be discussed on the basis of two case studies. The abilities of subsequent combined cold rolling and continuous annealing processes to generate final properties will be shown afterwards. The effect of thermo-mechanical hot rolling compared to conventional rolling was investigated by Shahtout et al. [197] for ten different rolling schedules with regard to the final microstructure of high strength, low carbon micro-alloyed steel (see Table 3). The effect of the laminar cooling was studied by Sha et al. [196] using a low-carbon strip steel. The authors kept all process parameters constant while varying the coiling temperature. The finishing mill delivery temperature was around 870 8C and the time for laminar cooling was 17.7 s yielding different cooling rates for all three cases. Increasing cooling rates lead to decreased ferrite volume fractions owing to a much faster phase transformation from austenite to ferrite (Table 4 and Fig. 27). The prediction by the used fast semiempirical model is in good agreement with the measurements, too. The number of stands has significant influence on the microstructure. Using less stands decreases the grain size in all cases due to increased strains and, therefore, promotes recrystallization in every pass. In the later passes, precipitates of microalloying elements hinder grain growth, resulting in a fine-grained microstructure, as clearly visible in Fig. 29. According to the HallPetch relation, the corresponding strength alters for the four-stand schedules from 603 MPa (750 8C) to 632 MPa (800 8C) and up to 618 MPa (850 8C) [197]. The semi-empirical models (see Section 3.1) used by Sha et al. accurately predict properties like the volume fraction of phases or the average grain sizes. On this basis, furthermore, an estimation of

Microstructure control during finishing operations: Beyond hot rolling, important product properties are also tailored during the combined cold rolling-continuous annealing sequence. This sequence allows controlling phase composition and influencing product quality. AHSS are a spectacular example of improvement of properties by control of phase transformations [97]. These steels are subject to complex thermal cycles which give a combination of the soft ferrite and hard constituents (bainite, martensite, retained austenite). There are still possibilities of improvement of these steels by control of morphology and composition of hard constituents. Modeling of manufacturing and exploitation of an automotive part (crash box) was selected to demonstrate capabilities of multi-scale modeling in prediction of product properties (Fig. 28). Parameters transferred between operations are: austenite grain size, flow stress, strain, ferrite and martensite volume fractions. Control of properties in the hot part is described previously and modeling of this process can be found in [118]. The results of modeling of final operations of cold rolling, continuous annealing, and stamping are presented below together with the results of simulations of crash test. FE was used for macro scale and CA for micro scale analysis, see Section 3.4. Modeling started with generation of the ferritic-pearlitic microstructure after hot rolling. Here, the idea of the representative volume element (RVE) was used (1 in Fig. 30). This element was deformed in cold rolling. FE mesh reproduced grain structure and local accumulation of the energy of deformation was calculated. These data were transferred to the CA model, which simulated ferrite recrystallization (2 in Fig. 30) [129] followed by phase transformation (3 in Fig. 30) [84] during heating in the continuous

annealing. Ferrite-austenite microstructure was calculated, including non-uniform carbon distribution in the austenite in the intercritical temperature. These data were the input for the CA model for the phase transformation during cooling (4 in Fig. 30). The model predicted ferritic-martensitic microstructure as well as carbon distribution in the martensite. Local carbon concentration in the martensite allowed calculating the distribution of the flow stress in this phase. The RVE with the microstructure after continuous annealing was attached to the FE code, which simulated the stamping process and crash tests of the final product (Fig. 31). The relation between microstructure (volume fraction and morphology of phases and properties of martensite) and capability of steel to accommodate energy of deformation was evaluated. Accounting for the local hardening during stamping and crash test improved the agreement of predictions with experimental data for energy accumulation. Tailored hardening in hot stamping: Hot stamping is an established manufacturing process to adjust the hardness of final products [105]. Direct and indirect hot stamping are the two main process variants to manufacture high-hardness parts such as safety-relevant components like the B-pillar (Fig. 32). The direct hot stamping process consists of three steps. Firstly, an aluminum-silicon-coated blank of boron-manganese steel 22MnB5 is austenitized in a roller hearth furnace by conduction or by induction [115]. Afterwards, the heated sheet is transferred to the forming press, in which it is formed and quenched simultaneously. If the cooling rate of the boron-manganese steel is higher than 27 K/s, a martensitic microstructure [142] with a hardness of 470 HV (1500 MPa) develops out of the soft raw material (170 HV, 600 MPa) [19]. Since the forming operation takes place at the elevated temperatures, also forming limits are increased, while springback is reduced, additionally. Finally, the component is cut to its final geometry. Within the indirect process, the component is formed in cold condition to 90 % of its end shape first. Afterward, the conventional hot stamping is performed, in which the forming of the last 10% to the final geometry takes place [154]. Because of the poor ductility of 5% to 6% of hot stamped components, extensive efforts are made to produce components with locally adjusted hardness complying with the requirements of a good crash-performance regarding structural integrity and energy absorption [146]. One solution is to manufacture tailored welded blanks or intrinsic tailored blanks.

profile, leading to the development of different microstructures within the sheet. The change in the time-temperature profile can be done before, during, or after the hot stamping process [181]. Partial austenitization strategies of the blank take place before the hot stamping process. Thereby, the sheet is heated above Ac3 temperature in certain regions where martensitic transformation should occur, while the other regions are kept below Ac3 temperature to prevent martensitic microstructure development resulting in lower hardness but higher ductility. During the hot stamping process, the mechanical properties are adjusted by controlling the cooling conditions of the sheet with a locally heated tool [18]. According to Newton’s cooling law, a smaller temperature difference between the tool and the blank results in lower cooling rates and in a different microstructure development. Additionally, small gaps between the tool and the blank surface lead to hot spots, which are slowing down the cooling speed of the component, influencing the microstructure development, too [146]. Finally, an annealing operation after the conventional hot stamping process of the structural part is possible. The annealing process is promising regarding adjustment and controllability, but distortion of the component is possible and also an additional process step is needed [237]. All intrinsic strategies will result in a gradient of hardness of different extent between the different treated zones because of the inner heat conduction, which should be considered during dimensioning of the component. As an advantage, the notch effect of the weld seam of tailored welded blanks is avoided. Depending on the strategy, different tensile strengths and elongations are adjustable, as shown exemplarily in Fig. 33.

Tailored welded blanks include a welding step before the conventional hot stamping process to produce a blank out of two different materials [119]. A characteristic is the sharp gradient of hardness between the different steel grades, which can also be associated with negative effects like notching under certain load paths. If HSLA-steel is combined with boron steel, complex stamping products with a locally high degree of deformation are achievable [29]. Nevertheless, due to the thermal expansion and phase transformation a sequence of tension, compression and tension while quenching occurs, whereby inhomogeneous residual stresses and a complex springback behavior result. In order to predict the final geometry after cooling and unloading, a numerical analysis with coupled thermo-mechanical-metallurgical effects is suitable to map the stress-strain state in the press hardening process. Based on this model, the stress-strain state during phase transformation and cooling can finally be adapted through adjustment of the temperature-time history [29]. The concept of intrinsic tailored blanks is the adjustment of mechanical properties by influencing the time-temperature
Prediction of hardness in hot extrusion: In hot forward extrusion of aluminum alloys with secondary quenching, the process parameters such as extrusion ratio, punch speed, and temperature control the balance between the main forming mechanisms strain hardening and thermal softening [65]. Due to the complex characteristics, the recrystallization has been in the focus of several investigations [37,69]. The refinement of grains and deformation induced subgrains regulate finally the hardness of the product. Gu¨zel et al. investigated the dynamic grain structure evolution of EN AW-6082 alloy experimentally and numerically [81]. Obtained EBSD maps positioned on a flow path show the alternation of boundary misorientations besides the reduction of grain and subgrain sizes (Fig. 34a). The microstructure evolution results from a dynamic equilibrium, whereupon the continuous and geometric recrystallization softens the material in consequence to the poor nucleation of new grains and the low effect of discontinuous dynamic recrystallization [49,183]. The EBSD analysis shows, on each position aside from the initial state, the development of low angle grain boundaries beside in flow direction elongated grains. Other EBSD analyses show that both grain and subgrain size decrease for accumulating deformation, while the low angle boundaries are stagnating and high angle boundaries are rising. The mechanism for grain refinement is directly linked to the deformation driven high angle boundaries. To predict and control microstructural parameters, the simulated state-dependent variables are filled in relation laws. Sellars and Zhu [192] and Velay [219] described microstructural parameters in correlation to plastic strain and the temperature compensated Zener-Hollomon parameter. Thereby, an advanced

thermo-mechanical coupled simulation delivers the misorientations, grain and subgrain sizes in addition to state-dependent variables. With empirical equations, a connection between the hardness and the process parameters is drawn, see Section 3.2. Fig. 34b shows the grain and subgrain size as a function of equivalent plastic strains, whereupon increasing strains lead to a finer structure. After passing the orifice, a coarsening of grains due to static recrystallization is avoided by quenching [100]. Fig. 34c shows the Vickers hardness dependent on the subgrain size. To adjust the hardness and the subordinated yield or ultimate tensile strength, parameters like the temperatures and the punch speed represent simple actuating variables. In consequence to an actuating variable, the balance between strain-induced hardening and temperaturetime dependent softening as the final material properties is regulated. In addition to the hardness prediction, recent investigations focused on the numerical simulations enhance the accuracy [113], allow the weld prediction [76], and determine the grain size distribution [187].
dies (Fig. 35). In addition to the four times redirecting ECAP die, several modifications with variable angles and numbers of deflections, an inverse sequence and varying channel areas are imaginable, which allow multiple variations to control microstructure evolution. In every ECAP turn, an additional plastic strain is imposed, which can be calculated to etot 0.9 by using the upper bound method according to Eivani and Karimi for an ECAP turn angle of 908 and friction factor m = 1 [53]. As Fig. 36 shows, the ECAP extruded specimen reach a superior ductility for chip-based billets, which is 71% higher in comparison to flat-face extruded specimens. Nevertheless, the strength of all extrusions is on similar levels and not influenced by secondary parameters like temperature or ram speed. In relation to the hardness, no correlation to the tensile test results can be obtained. Further measurements demonstrate that the micro hardness intensely alternates with the inhomogeneous microstructure.
5.2. Product property: Formability In general, an increased hardness is accompanied by a reduced formability, as the previous thermo-mechanical processes revealed. With the objective of high ductility and strength at the same time, severe plastic deformation (SPD) processes are of great importance [15]. The examples of equal channel angular pressing (ECAP), continuous bending drawing (CBD), and accumulative roll bonding (ARB), make the significant influence of grain refinement on ductility visible. Control of formability in hot extrusion: The hot forward extrusion with integrated ECAP is used to recycle and shape aluminum chips to profiles with high quality mechanical properties in one step [82]. ECAP is a variant of the group of SPD processes, which enables a grain refinement with grain sizes below 1 mm through strong shear strains [15]. Extremely positive effects occur when ECAP is used in chip extrusion because a reliable solid state bonding of the chips is ensured. A feature of the ECAP extrusion is the multiple deflection of the chip based material with an upstream rising hydrostatic pressure, which is caused by the huge amount of shearing at every ECAP turn (Fig. 35). This high backpressure and the repeating shear strains allow defined bonding although low extrusion ratios are used. To control product properties, e.g., ductility, hardness, or strength, the process combination of forward extrusion and equal channel angular pressing can be modified by the sequence, numbers, and angles of deflection, respectively. Haase et al. [82] investigated the combined extrusion and ECAP of cast and chip-based billets with flat-face, porthole, and ECAP

Paydar et al. [161,162] investigated the integration of ECAP upstream and downstream of forward extrusion, whereby an alternating ductility of the pure aluminum resulted. Tailored sheet metals by use of accumulative roll bonding: Accumulative roll bonding (ARB) belongs to the group of SPD processes [182]. The key idea of this processing strategy similar to cladding is the production of multi-layered sheet metal with a nanocrystalline grain structure. In Fig. 37a, the processing strategy is illustrated. Following a surface treatment for removing the oxide layer and to roughen the surface, the stacked sheets are joined in a

rolling operation. These steps are carried out several times until a certain number of layers and specific product properties are achieved, respectively. Huge shear deformations can be accumulated in the sheets during the rolling cycles. In general, an enhanced strength can be obtained due to work hardening and an increased dislocation density on the one hand and a reduced grain size on the other hand. The final properties depend, in particular, on the thickness reduction and the rolling temperature. Grain size and recrystallization effects, work hardening, and the bond strength are directly influenced by these two parameters. Fig. 37b shows the change of strength and elongation of two aluminum alloys with total equivalent strain etn, which is given by Eq. (4). In this equation n is the number of ARB cycles, h0 is the thickness of the initial specimen and hn is the thickness of the specimen after n cycles, [123]. 2

bending and unbending. An increase of ebending leads to an increase of the formability and a significant decrease of the flow stress, compare Fig. 39.

Amongst others, the ARB process can be applied to different aluminum alloys, titanium, copper, and steel. Moreover, the ARB process allows the combination of different metals or alloys such as the 5000 and 6000 series aluminum [90] and tailored alloying by means of particles such as copper between the different layers [188]. Regarding 6000 series aluminum alloys, there is a significant loss in ductility accompanying the increased strength. In this context, the Tailored Heat Treated Blanks (THTB) technology [222] was applied to nanocrystalline aluminum in order to locally regain the ductility and enhance the formability of the blank using a local short term heat treatment [144]. For nanocrystalline 6000 series aluminum besides the well-known dissolution of the precipitates, there is another softening effect, namely local recrystallization [133]. The combination of ARB and THTB allows the production of tailored sheet metal with a specific layer structure and property distribution optimized for the subsequent forming process and the final product properties. In this connection, property gradients in thickness direction and over the plane can be created. For the prediction of the properties after the roll bonding process, the FE simulation with a multi-scale approach (see Section 3.4) is used [189]. Concerning the design of subsequent forming processes, the Hill’90 criterion was identified as an applicable approach for modeling the mechanical behavior of ARB processed AA6016 [141]. Control of elongation through continuous bending drawing: Yanagimoto et al. [228] introduce a new method for the manufacturing of ultrafine electric wire called continuous bending drawing (CBD). Wires with diameters less than 0.3 mm combined with excellent electrical and mechanical properties are more and more requested by the automotive industry. The proposed process combines an SPD process (see [15]) and a draw bending process, allowing for the control of formability and strength by plastic deformation induced in different loading directions. Fig. 38 shows a schematic of the process. In order to control the bending radius at the last stand, the positions of the dies A, B, and C are flexible.
Fig. 38. Continuous bending drawing (CBD) process [228].
During the CBD process, a ‘deformation induced softening’ can be observed, depending on the equivalent bending strain ebending:
ebending ¼ lnð1 þ da =Rn Þ ð1 þ db =Rn Þ
(5)
here Rn stands for the curvature radius of a neutral plane of the wire specimen and da and db are the radii of the specimen during
Thermal effects can be excluded as a reason for the softening. A qualitative explanation of the observed phenomenon is based on grain and dislocation structures of the material. Unlike during general plastic deformation, no sub-boundaries may be formed [85], but many incidental dislocation boundaries (IDBs) penetrate the elongated grains. The grains become elongated and the intervals between the IDBs increase. During draw-bending, the grains and dislocations are subject to compressive/tensile or tensile/compressive stresses in the longitudinal direction. The residual drawing stress may be reduced rapidly during reverse loading, resembling the Bauschinger effect observed in conventional cold forming, see Fig. 40, [228].

5.3. Product property: Anisotropy The anisotropy has an influence on mechanical properties (Section 2.6) and is important for both the quality assurance of finished products and the defect-free forming. The following examples give a detailed insight of controlling textures in rolling and forging in order to enhance the functional characteristics. In the already mentioned ARB, besides strength and ductility, there is also a shift regarding the texture. The products reveal a strong texture with grains elongated in rolling direction and, furthermore, there are texture gradients in thickness direction due to repeated stacking. The lattice structure and the relation of r0, r45, and r90 change during the ARB cycles. With respect to thinning of the material in a deep drawing process, the sheets with higher number of ARB cycles are advantageous. In contrast, low-cycle sheets tend to show less earing [202].

Texture control in rolling: Rolling is one effective instrument to influence the final texture, which is significant in most sheet forming processes to control the forming limits. The texture development within a process chain is influenced by the forming conditions, i.e., the temperature and strain, applied to a certain material. Every process step like casting, rolling, and heat treatment leads to a specific texture based on the process conditions and, therefore, affects the final product properties in a way that cannot be described by isotropic concepts like flow stress or a macroscopic failure criterion. A typical experiment incorporating the anisotropy of rolled material is cup drawing with earing. Several models (e.g., Taylor model, self-consistent method, crystal plasticity FEM) have been developed to cover this effect (compare Section 3) [17]. The major impact on the texture development during hot rolling is temperature and strain [150]. Fig. 41 shows the inverse pole figures of a stainless-steel hot strip sample in a thermomechanical plane strain compression test representing different finishing delivery temperatures during hot rolling in a tandem mill. It is obvious that different temperatures result in different textures. The scope of this study was to control the ridging phenomena, i.e., a surface defect in rolling direction. Here, lower finishing temperatures results in lower ridging height.

To consider the influence of different strain states within the roll gap on texture, the rolling schedule has to be taken into account. Especially the shear profile depends on the geometry of the roll gap [195]. Fig. 42 shows the shear profile in the roll gap for different initial thicknesses. Consequently, the properties of a rolled product are not only determined by the rolled final geometry but also by the rolling schedule and the resulting texture.

also captures the transformation from 08/908 earing to 458 earing at approx. 85%. The analysis consists of FEM computations, which are used to analyze the evolution of stresses and strains during the drawing process. The idealized stress/strain history is imposed on the textured material at different angles. The earing profiles are then computed from the variations in radial elongation under different in-plane angles [56]. Influence of fiber flow on static and dynamic properties of forged steel components: Another process example to control the textured mechanical properties is forging of steel. The mechanical properties of forged steel parts are regarded as advantageous compared with workpieces manufactured by machining or casting due to an uninterrupted fiber flow, which follows the surface contour in forged components. Schuster et al. prove that stretched manganese sulphides (MnS) are responsible for the fiber flow in sulfur-containing steels [190]. The shape and orientation of MnS has a strong influence on the impact toughness. The crack propagation in longitudinal impact toughness samples runs perpendicular to stretched MnS and requires much energy whereas the energy consumption of crack propagation along elongated MnS is much lower. Schuster et al. defined a factor of anisotropy AK according to Eq. (6), exposing the dependency of the notch impact energy on strain during cold upsetting and on the shape of MnS [190]. AK ¼
KV l KV t
(6)
KVl represents the measured impact energy of impact toughness samples oriented in rolling (longitudinal) or upsetting direction and KVt the impact energy transverse to these directions. Fig. 44 shows that an increase of the strain leads to a decrease of KVl while KVt changes only little, resulting in a lower value of AK in cold upset workpieces compared to rolled material.
Fig. 42. Grid distortion and net shear strain through the roll gap for thick plate (400 mm, 20% reduction) and thin plate (10 mm, 20% reduction)[195].
Control of anisotropy in aluminum sheet production: Standard beverage can bodies are made from aluminum sheets by a sequence of drawing processes. The efficient material usage is significantly influenced by the anisotropy of the sheet material since possibly occurring earing tips have to be clipped off. The amount of earing is controlled by the texture in the hot strip and by the degree of successive cold working [55]. Minimal earing after cold rolling can be achieved by an optimum combination of strength of the initial cube texture and rolling reduction. With a visco-plastic self-consistent polycrystalplasticity earing model (see Section 3.3), a very accurate prediction of the cup height profile is possible, see Fig. 43d and e. The model
Fig. 44. Dependency of notch impact energy and factor of anisotropy on strain [190].
After cold upsetting, MnS’s are completely crushed and reshaped, their influence on the fracture behavior is overlain by flattened grains of the steel microstructure (Fig. 45). In hot forged parts, flattened MnS with a very small nose radius can be responsible for crack initiation between the component and its burr, as shown in [173]. By the example of a common rail, the detrimental effect of extreme flattening of MnS under high strain is visible, Fig. 46. If the pressure in the rail rises, cracks form along the MnS leading to damage. The potential formation of flattened MnS in regions with elevated stress levels should be avoided and considered during design of components.

5.4. Product property: Residual stresses Residual stresses result from inhomogeneous plastic deformation over the cross-section of the formed workpiece. Their impact can be both positive and negative. On the one hand, they can lead to distortions or even failure when superposed by a service load [121]. On the other hand, compressive stresses at the surface have a positive effect on the fatigue behavior of cold forged parts [96]. Cold forming processes are particularly suitable for setting of different residual stress states. Control of residual stresses in cold forming processes: In processes such as reducing, forward rod extrusion, or wire drawing, residual stresses can be controlled via the strain, geometric parameters (e.g., die angle a), and stiffness of the tools, friction, and material characteristics [212]. Figs. 47 and 48 show that the residual stresses induced by the extrusion process are reduced by the small plastic deformation of the ejection stage. As shown in Fig. 49, the stiffness of the die influences the degree of reduction of the induced residual stresses [212].
Fig. 47. Residual stresses during extrusion [211].
5.5. Product property: Damage Damage accumulates with progressing cold plastic deformation in manufactured parts. This damage affects the service properties such as fatigue strength, static strength, and yield strength. Especially those defects which cannot be easily identified by non-
destructive testing should be avoided to prevent failure during the service life of the product. In the following, exemplary processes are presented in which defects are inhibited by a modification of the stress state, implemented by innovative tooling concepts. The damage accumulation in the interior of a bulk metal part and on the surface of a bent sheet were reduced. Damage reduction in cold forward extrusion: Material failure in the form of holes or cracks occur in cold forward extrusion when a critical point of damage is exceeded. These main defects are observed on the surface (snake-skin or fir-tree) or within an extruded part (chevron cracks or central bursts) depending on the process parameters such as reduction in area, die semi-cone angle, friction at the die and workpiece interface, working temperature, material ductility, etc. [203]. Although the surface cracks can be detected directly by standard surface inspection, the internal cracks require additional investigations, such as nondestructive ultrasonic testing. Internally occurring arrow-shaped central cracks result in a decrease in the load carrying capacity of the product. To investigate central crack formation mechanisms, several studies including experimental, analytical, and numerical methods were conducted [11,12,236]. These studies reveal that the positive triaxial stress state at the area reduction zone promotes the crack formation during plastic flow. Although low area reductions using high semi-cone angles enhance central damage accumulation, the friction motivates surface, rather than central, damage accumulation [203]. Without promoting the surface damage, superimposed hydrostatic pressure can be applied to modify the damage coupled plastic behavior of the material. While the effect of superimposed hydrostatic pressure differs with respect to material characteristics, it has been generally accepted that increased ductility and delay in nucleation, growth, and coalescence mechanisms for microvoids are gained utilities [61,164]. For certain die geometries and process parameters, the hydrostatic compression can be achieved by employing counter pressure at the extruded nose part of the workpiece. The experimental studies of [223] show that the application of counter pressure promotes material formability in extrusion so that it becomes possible to extrude even relatively brittle materials. Fig. 50 shows the calculated damage accumulation of an extruded part with consideration of friction, whereby a minimum counter pressure to

A variance-based Bayesian hierarchical modeling approach (see Section 3.5) of a hot bar rolling process is presented in [5]. This model allows the online control of material properties that affect surface defect formation in hot strip mills. Fig. 50. Effect of counter pressure on damage with consideration of friction (m = 0.04) [203].
avoid fractures could be determined [203]. Here, a counter pressure above 125 MPa was sufficient to decrease the damage accumulation below the critical value of 0.27 and avoid cracks. Counter pressure can be applied not only for the hindrance of the central crack but also for the reduction of damage accumulated in the product in order to increase further product life in service. Damage reduction in bending process: Experiments show that damage development in bending of modern alloys and polycrystals usually is motivated by intense strain localization at the free convex surface. Cracks initiate in the form of orange peels and lead to gradually growing undulations parallel to the bend axis [47]. As before, the Bridgman’s finding of higher ductility and delay in nucleation achieved by superimposed hydrostatic pressure allows the usage of compliant tools (e.g., PVC, PUR) for extended process limits. Application of additional controlled compression over the outer surface of a bent material with a counterholder lowers the circumferential stress at the outermost fiber of the material. Fig. 51 shows the damage according to Lemaitre in air bending, which is significantly reduced by counterpressure through elastomer tools [35]. Consequently, the fracture is prevented unlike in conventional bending processes [186]. The superposition of hydrostatic pressure can inhibit cracking during working of brittle materials [172].
5.6. Product property: Electromagnetic properties Electromagnetic properties such as magnetic flux density B and core losses W are important parameters of electrical steels. For a high effectiveness of electrical machinery cores, high B-values and low W values are aimed at. These electromagnetic material properties are determined by the microstructure (grain size and texture), and thus, can be controlled by suitable forming processes, e.g., rolling operations. In most cases, grain sizes between 80 and 120 mm and u- and hfibers are desirable, while a-, a*- and g-fibers result in unfavorable magnetic properties. For non-grain orientated (NO) electrical steels with high silicon content (no phase transformation), Sidor et al. [201] showed that the whole production chain, including slab reheating, hot rolling, cold rolling, and final recrystallization (RX), annealing affect the microstructure. In this investigation, electrical steel was hot rolled with different finishing temperatures, then cold-rolled and annealed. The different rolling conditions influence the hot rolled state as well as the properties after cold rolling and annealing. Fig. 53 shows the texture in the annealed state for 3.0 wt.% Si steel. In (a) the coiling temperature after hot rolling was 860 8C, while in (b) the temperature was 820 8C. Both texture and grain size (61 mm in (a) and 31 mm in (b)) differ, although, after hot rolling, the same cold rolling and annealing conditions were applied. On the basis of the microstructure properties the magnetic properties were calculated. For this calculation, the quality of texture is described by the minimum angle Au(g) between the applied field and the closest h1 0 0i direction of the crystal. The calculated values for B50 are similar, but the core losses W15/50 differ by approximately 10%, with 3.70 W/kg for (a) and 4.00 W/kg for (b).
Fig. 51. Numerical analysis of damage evolution in air bending without and with elastomer-tool [35].
This additional hydrostatic pressure makes all the principal stresses more compressive and hence reduces the tensile stresses below the critical value for cracking [33]. On the basis of this principle, an adjustment of the hardness of the elastomer counterholder is possible in order to control the superimposed stresses and to avoid crack occurence [36]. Modeling of damage during forging: An FEM based modeling approach which relates the process conditions during forging of titanium aeroengine disks to the mechanics of melt related failure (hard-alpha inclusions) is presented in [199]. The whole process chain from the billet to the final product is represented in a numerical framework, and the influence of each single forming step on the final material properties and the risk for failure (see Section 3.5) can be visualized and optimized regarding maximized durability, Fig. 52. An appropriate selection of process parameters and design of the forging sequence can significantly reduce the failure risk [4].

Similar results are shown by Lee et al. [122]. Cold rolling was performed in hot rolling direction and rotated by 908 to achieve different hot rolling textures.

6. Integration of manufacturing-induced properties in product design Metal forming technologies have inherent potentials for innovative products based on the product properties which are significantly influenced or modified during manufacturing processes by specific technologies (manufacturing-induced properties) [72]. Therefore, aside from the geometric properties, that are usually targeted in the design process, the microscopic and material properties need to be focused on as well to tap the full technological potential. Hence, one of the central challenges is to integrate these properties systematically into the product development process. 6.1. Classical product development and design approaches Classical product development and design approaches, e.g., Pahl and Beitz [60], VDI recommendation 2221 [218] and axiomatic design [205], recommend a stepwise procedure, starting from a product idea and the customer needs. Therefore, they are principally market-pull-oriented and do not include many aspects of a technology-push. Axiomatic design: Axiomatic design theory and methods focus, like other classical product design approaches, on meeting the customer needs by providing the product function. The designers’ task is described as a structured mapping over four dimensions between ‘‘what we want to achieve’’ and ‘‘how we want to achieve it’’. As shown in Fig. 55, manufacturing technologies are considered within the process domain, i.e., the last of the four domains. After the design parameters are chosen, appropriate manufacturing issues are considered in terms of process variables [205,206]. Modifications of the design parameters, based on specific manufacturing technology aspects, can be performed by iterations. The physical domain comprises a group of design parameters (Fig. 55 highlight (a)) that is achievable by geometric product design and can be manipulated in manufacturing by conventional process control. Further design parameters (Fig. 55, highlight (b)) are linked to material properties, especially to material property variation. Their provision requires a monitoring and process control of material properties. There is an underestimated need to focus on these design parameters. Defining an appropriate set of adjustable parameters allows to meet all functional requirements in a one-to-one mapping without exceptions.
Fig. 55. Four domains in axiomatic design [205].
VDI 2221: The recommended design process of VDI 2221 is structured in the phases of clarification of the task, conceptual design, embodiment, and detail design (see Fig. 56). As a basis for innovative and successful products, the early phases, especially the

clarification of the task and the conceptual design phase, have to be intensified [52]. Important decisions are made in these phases, that influence the functionality, the costs, and the quality of the product. Because the focus is placed on the product function, the final conceptual design is only marginally affected by the manufacturing. Manufacturing technology aspects and information about the achievable product properties are incorporated only in later stages of the product design process, i.e., in the embodiment and the detail design [70,72]. Here, the manufacturing technologies are considered in terms of design rules and guidelines [60,177]. Design for Manufacturing: The basic idea of Design for Manufacturing (DfM), including also Design for Forming [8], is to feedback and to integrate information about the manufacturing technologies into the product design process. It must be carefully noted that this approach adapts the design process for easy manufacturing and not for deterministic superior product properties. Therefore, the manufacturing processes should be linked to the product design process. Reducing manufacturing time and costs as well as time-to-market constitute the targeted objectives of DfM. Thereby, the quality characteristics depending on manufacturing have to be ensured [60,140]. As shown in Fig. 56, DfM result in time consuming iterations that mainly affect the detail design and sometimes the embodiment design. The effect on determining the conceptual design is usually irrelevant [72]. A huge number of rules [60], guidelines [30], design references [177], advices and tools [140] exists in the literature. They support designers to generate a manufacturing-compliant solution. For example, DfM guidelines place emphasis on issues like process limits, advantageous part geometries, machine capabilities, energy consumption as well as ecological aspects. 6.2. New manufacturing integrated design approaches New product design approaches proposed by [72] expand existing approaches with special focus on the manufacturing technologies. The objective is to incorporate and to integrate the specific manufacturing-induced properties including the mechanical properties into the design process systematically. They use the characterization of manufacturing technologies by their manufacturing-induced properties to identify appropriate technologies for the specific design task at an early stage of the product design process. The selection of the manufacturing technology after the development task has been clarified allows the systematic integration of the manufacturing-induced properties into the further design process and reduces the number of iterations. The approach, shown in Fig. 57, is combined with mathematical optimization algorithms which support the goal-oriented exploitation of manufacturing-induced properties [72]. The procedure of property-mapping as the step to identify fitting manufacturing technologies and to integrate manufacturing-induced properties is described in [70]. In general, a product or

The systematic and comprehensive integration of manufacturing-induced properties allows a more detailed analysis of the product’s behavior and lifetime prediction. As a following step, the approaches can be expanded towards the entire life cycle in order to generate an integrated product (and process) development. These approaches are similar to [2,10,25], (Fig. 58), and focus on anticipating and influencing the entire process chain of the product life cycle during the product design process. 7. Summary and future perspectives
Fig. 57. Manufacturing integrated product design approach [72].
its elements have to be attributed to function-required properties, that are necessary to provide the product function. Propertymapping allows the identification of appropriate technologies by mapping the function-required properties on the respective manufacturing-induced properties systematically. This mapping allows to operate in both directions. On the one hand, starting from the function-required properties (market-pull), an appropriate manufacturing technology can be identified. On the other hand, starting from the manufacturing-induced properties, innovative product ideas can be systematically generated. Thus, the approach incorporates equally a technology-push. A case study in which a multi-functional linear guiding system has been developed illustrates the benefit of the approach. A process chain of linear flow splitting and linear bend splitting, coupled with subsequent roll-forming processes, is suitable to realize the function-required properties [72]. Because of the ultra-fine grained structure, linear flow split flanges, which are characterized by an increased hardness and ductile behavior at the same time [151], are predestined to be used as rolling contact surfaces. The manufacturing-induced properties go along with an increased rolling and sliding contact fatigue strength [106]. The selected technologies allow the manufacturing of bifurcations in a continuous process [71,73] and allow manufacturing of multi-chambered profiles in integral style [68]. In the case study, these chambers are used to provide an integrated breaking function by clamping the slide. With the aid of pressure generation, the side walls of two chambers are displaced outwards and used to generate a clamping force [72]. By manufacturing with the appropriate technologies, the physical product inherits the benefits of the manufacturinginduced properties and exploits the technological potentials in terms of realizing additional functional benefits and reducing weight, safety factors, or process steps, for example [70].

The paper shows that metal forming, besides mere manufacturing of the desired shape, has the powerful ability of simultaneously setting desired mechanical and physical properties over the whole volume of the product. Today it is possible to set selected material parameters (e.g., ductility, strength, and residual stresses) of semi-finished products, like sheets and wires, in a homogenous manner. Fig. 59 summarizes the product properties and the process parameters, which are indirectly linked through the evolution of micro- and macrostructure. The control of properties is possible through the achievements of computational methods for predicting and controlling the properties (such as multi-scale or multi-physics modeling) as well as novel methods to measure the properties (e.g., based on optical, X-ray, or ultrasonic principles).
Fig. 59. Relationship between product properties and metal forming parameters.
Inhomogeneous setting and prediction of the properties is still at the beginning. In order to enhance the capabilities of predicting not only global, but local product properties of complex parts, the multi-scale methods must be improved with regard to precision and computation performance. Also the measurement methods to predict the in-volume properties need to be improved. Nevertheless, the presented developments mark the starting point of a paradigm change in the design of formed workpieces. Including this fact in the design process would allow a considerable reduction of safety factors of products and, hence, contribute significantly to the development of lightweight products that are environmentally benign. Current applications for predicting and setting product properties in metal forming can be considered as open-loop control of the product properties (Fig. 60a). It can be envisioned that, in the next decades, the paradigm shift will be accomplished by the final step of closed-loop control of the properties (Fig. 60b). The fundamentals of closed-loop control to adjust product properties will be discussed in the CIRP keynote 2016.
