Funded Activity Summary

MICROFORMING: effects of microstructural scale on metal formability. Microforming is a rapidly growing industry, and already enjoys considerable activity in Germany, Japan, the US, and Korea, all of which are major trading partners of Australia. This project couples fundamental insight into the effects of microstructural and geometric scale with the frontier technology of microforming. Thus, the project will place Australian researchers at the frontier of microforming research, with the capacity to be involved in shaping the industry. In the course of this work, new process routes will be developed, new materials may be created, and new opportunities will certainly emerge.
