Material Selection
Material selection is critical in both product and process
design.
Formability is the central material property.
This property must be balanced with other product and
process considerations such as strength, weight, cost, and
corrosion resistance.

ρ ρ Y
At the onset of plastic behavior
σ = - y/ρ E = - h/2ρ E = -Y (4) σ
This occurs at
1/ρ = 2Y / hE = 1/ρ Y (5)
Substitution into eqn (3) gives us the moment at
on-set of yield, MY
MY = - EI/ρ Y = EI 2Y / hE = 2IY/h (6)
After this point, the M vs 1/r curve starts to “bend
over.” Note from M=0 to M=MY the curve is linear.
