Giving it a shape and making it a useful component defines the process of forming. Years of research have given new methods to this process. In various industries like automobile and aeronautics, the goal is to achieve complicated shapes with properties like high energy absorption, high rigidity at a lower cost. These aspects can be achieved by Advance Forming Methods (AFM), major work is being done on the hydroforming process as this process provide shapes that otherwise require a greater number of processes. The idea of flexible forming is something where the efforts are reduced along with a number of trials by introducing rubber pads into the sheet metal forming process and the complexity of tool design automatically reduces. Other than these processes, the process of rapid prototyping which is incorporated in the laser forming process is being used in the fabrication of metallic components. The areas of work which is being done are to reduce the number of failures by optimizing the process parameters to achieve better results at a low cost
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
