The effects of grain size and multi-step blanking on sheared edge quality and stretch-flangeability of advanced high-strength steel

This study demonstrates that in TRIP800 steel, grain coarsening synergistically enhances sheared edge quality and stretch-flangeability under multi-step blanking by promoting delayed strain hardening and redistributing stress triaxiality to suppress damage accumulation and fracture initiation.
