Optimising pressure profiles in superplastic forming
Some metals, such as Ti-6Al-4V, have a high elongation to failure when strained at certain rates and temperatures. Superplastic forming is the utilisation of this property, and it can be used to form thin, geometrically complex components. Superplastic forming is a slow process, and this is one of t...
