| Summary: | The mechanical behavior of the extruded 7003-T6 aluminum profiles used as automotive buffer beams is investigated. The correlation of the texture and the formation of the adiabatic shear band is analyzed. Copper texture, R texture, and S texture are the main reasons for the anisotropy of mechanical behavior of the profile, resulting in that the stress of the profile along the extrusion direction is higher than that perpendicular to the extrusion direction. Through finite element modeling (FEM), it can be found that the adiabatic shear band is developed in the sample if the dynamic loading direction is parallel to the extrusion direction, but it does not appear if the loading direction is perpendicular to the extrusion direction. When the dynamic loading direction is parallel to the extrusion direction, higher stress results in a lower energy barrier for shear localization. Therefore, the formation of the adiabatic shear band is susceptible along but is not sensitive perpendicular to the extrusion direction. This study provides technical support for the service of 7003 aluminum alloy in automobiles, which has important academic and engineering application value. |
