Finite Element Simulation of High-Speed Blow Forming of an Automotive Component

High-speed blow forming (HSBF) is a new technology for producing components with complex geometries made of high strength aluminum alloy sheets. HSBF is considered a hybrid-superplastic forming method, which combines crash forming and gas blow forming. Due to its novelty, optimization of the deforma...
