Flexible tool design with shear thickening fluids in impulse forming processes
increasing the flexibility of the vaporization vaporizing foil actuator forming process for small batch production. In this process, massive, inflexible steel dies are replaced by thin, flexible, additively [...] vaporization process can be modelled through a pressure amplitude with an enlarged pressure surface. The STF is represented by an equation of state and corresponding viscosity, enabling the design of the die [...] Korkolis, Y. P., Tekkaya, A. E., 2025.
