rejection of the piece. Therefore, it is particularly important that, in addition to<br />

plotting FLD, to establish a relationship of interdependence between maximum<br />

stamped parts deformation values and the parameters imposed by rejection<br />

criteria (Banabic et al., 2005; Altmeyer et al., 2012).<br />

In the literature are presented several experimental methods used to<br />

determine the deformation limits (Marciniak et al., 2002; Ramir et al., 2012).<br />

One of the methods that deserve a special attention is the method called after<br />

Kobayashi (Banabic et al., 1992). Together with his colleagues, Kobayashi<br />

found, after analyzing the influence of deformation of work piece on surface<br />

roughness, that, the appearance of necking coincides with a sharp increase in<br />

surface roughness. This sudden increase of surface roughness is used, by<br />

Kobayashi, as a criterion for the occurrence of localized necking. To define this<br />

moment, in the deformation processes, is necessary to measure surface<br />

roughness at different stages of deformation and develop a chart with roughness<br />

variation depen<strong>din</strong>g on major strain ε1.<br />

Based on the method developed by Kobayashi and his team, we wanted<br />

to establish, using the tensile method, a mathematical relationship between thin<br />

sheets surface roughness and the deformation of analyzed material.<br />

2. Preparing an Conducting the Experiments<br />

For this approach we have conducted a series a tensile test which were<br />

aimed to obtain a different numbers of deformation stages for each material<br />

analysed. For the tensile experiments we took into account three of the most<br />

common used metallic sheets produced in Romania. Thus, in the experimental<br />

research we used rectangular specimens cut from thin sheets of the following<br />

materials: steel (wide strip steel B2), brass (CuZn37) and aluminium (Al<br />

99.5%).<br />

In order to determine the number of experimental tests and, of course, to<br />

determine the number of samples necessary to meet the proposed approach, we<br />

resorted to a factorial plan. Given that the ultimate goal of the entire process is<br />

to make a chart that will reflect the changes of specimen surface roughness<br />

depen<strong>din</strong>g by deformation, the tensile force is considered the main parameter to<br />

be change during the test. Thus, we used five different levels of the force<br />

generated by the universal test machine (Table 1).<br />
