- In this paper, part of a collaborative Industry-University project (Janka.Cafolla, janka.cafolla@tatasteel.com), the crash performance of three experimental grades developed for automotive hot stamping technologies, exhibiting wider tensile property properties than 22MnB5, was validated by finite element modelling on full vehicle side impact. The superior anti-intrusive crash performance of 38MnB5 was demonstrated, on B-pillar reinforcement compared to 22MnB5. Moreover, the superior “impact-energy absorptive” crash performance of grade 15MnCr5 was demonstrated, again for B-pillar reinforcement compared to 22MnB5. Such an approach offered impetus on the development of commercial variants of such grades by Tatasteel for hot stamped automotive applications (Tom Taylor, tom@iis.u-tokyo.ac.jp)
