Hi all,

basically I'm looking at the rate dependent behaviour of 316L stainless steel wire (18 thou)in a cold forming process. I'm using Ansys to model this behaviour. Problem is that I do not know much about the material parameters for Anands viscoplasticity material model. Can these be obtained from published data for the SS at ambient temperature in the cold-forming process, and what, generally is there significance??

Help very much appreciated,
Eoin
