Formability and its prediction of high-strength steels is an important research subject for forming specialists and researchers in this field. Springback and its accurate prediction of high-strength steels are very common issues in metal forming processes. In this article, the impact of blank holding force and friction on the parts springback made of dual-phase steel was studied. Numerical predictions of the springback effect were conducted using nine combinations of yield criteria and hardening rules. Results from experiments were evaluated and compared with results from numerical simulations. The use of lower blank holding forces and PE foil can reduce springback by a significant amount. Numerical simulations where the Yoshida-Uemori hardening rule was applied produced more accurate springback prediction results compared to simulations that used Krupkowski and Hollomon’s isotropic hardening rules in number of cases.
