Due to the increased demand for light weighting in automotive vehicles, solutions need to be created to allow automotive manufacturers to switch from highly formable but heavy steels to less formable but lighter aluminium alloys for body-in-white components; doors, roofs, hood. The 6xxx-series of aluminium alloys, based on the system of Al-Mg-Si-Cu, have shown promise for providing adequate strength and corrosion resistance but still, in the current state, one of their main limitations concerns their formability. This thesis aims to understand the effect of Si, Mg, and Cu additions under two different processing routes on the mechanical and formability properties of the AA6xxx-series.
