Increased Formability and the Effects of the Tool/Sheet Interaction in Electromagnetic Forming of Aluminum Alloy Sheet

This thesis presents the results of experimental and numerical work carried out to determine if electromagnetic forming (EMF) increases the formability of aluminum alloy sheet and, if so, to determine the mechanisms that play a role in the increased formability. To this end, free form (open cavity...
