Simulation of Electromagnetic Forming Process and Optimization of Geometric Parameters of Perforated Al Sheet Using RSM

Electromagnetic forming (EMF) is a kind of high-speed technology that can be useful for materials like aluminum. EMF helps to overcome the limitations traditional forming. Due this ability, use in automotive applications has risen recent years. The application finite element software packages such as ANSYS 22 gives numerical modelling capabilities simulate process and design process. Hence, aim research work build study three-dimensional model electromagnetic analyze geometric parameters influencing deformation perforated sheet with experiments (DOE) approach. simulation used two stages. In first stage, force or Lorentz striking workpiece (i.e., Al sheet) predicted using Emag module. second then applied on an calculate deformation. different combinations sheet, open area percentage, ligament ratio (LR) size hole, Structural. DOE, response surface methodology (RSM) by considering hole. To minimize number experiments, RSM named central composite (CCD) employed. Further, optimization finds maximum 0.0435 mm calculated optimized combination 25% area, 0.14 LR 4 hole size.
