Application of viscous pressure forming (VPF) to low volume stamping of difficult-to-form alloys —results of preliminary FEM simulations
TL;DR: In this article, a finite element-based code, DEFORM, has been designed to simulate the axisymmetrical viscous pressure forming of sheet metals, i.e., stretching and drawing, and the simulation results show that properties of the viscous medium, especially, viscosity, has a great effect on the process.
