Effect of Pre-Stress on Laser-Induced Thermoplastic Deformation of Inconel 718 Beams

Laser thermal forming is an application of laser heating without any intentional use of external forces. Force-assisted laser bending and laser-assisted bending are hybrid techniques, which combine the use of external forces and local heating to increase the effectiveness of forming. A quantitative...
