Abstract

The automotive industry is under increasing pressure to: (1) reduce the weight of vehicles and (2) improve crash performance. ‘Hot stamped’ mild carbon–manganese–boron steel 22MnB5 has become common place in the body structure of the European vehicle over the past decade. The ultrahigh strength mart...
