In response to growing environmental and collision-safety concerns, the automotive industry has gradually used high-strength and ultla-high-strength steels to reduce the weight of automobiles. In order to overcome inherent process disadvantages of these materials such as poor formability and high springback at room temperature, hot forming has recently been developed and adopted to produce some important structural parts in automobiles. This method enables manufacturing of components with complex geometric shapes with minimal springback. In addition, a quenching process may enhance the material strength by more than two times. This paper investigates mechanical and forming characteristics of high-strength boron-alloyed steel with hot forming, in terms of hardness, microstructure, residual stress, and springback. In order to compare with experimental results, a finite element analysis of hot forming process coupled with phase transformation and heat transfer was carried out using DEFORM-3D V6.1 and also, to predict high temperature mechanical properties and flow curves for different phases, a material properties modeler, JMatPro was used.
