This project studies the feasibility of applying finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate high strain rate forming of thin copper foil during the Laser Shock Forming (LSF) process, thereby predicting their ultimate deformation. ABAQUS, a commercial finite element software, was used in this study. T...
