Research abstract
The goal of the Phase I research is to identify the process parameters required to form armored steel plate using magnetoplasticity. This technology, called Mag Forming, is based on theoretical magnetoplasticity fundamentals that have been demonstrated at ORNL and is supported by high cycle fatigue experimentation reported in literature. The objected of the research is to identify the Mag Forming process parameters required to achieve low temperature superplasticity and tooling requirements.
