Comparison Between Results of Numerical Simulation of Electromagnetic Forming Applied on Metallic Workpieces Using Different Software

Abstract

Modelling by equivalent schemes thecomplex electromagnetic and mechanicalphenomena wich take place during theelectromagnetic forming of a metal workpiece offersdistinct advantages. Such schemes give an intuitivepicture of the field phenomena making themaccessible to the engineer’s methods. The schemesfacilitate the study by modelling methods. In thispaper we present comparison betwen results ofnumerical simulation of electromagnetic formingapplied to compression of tubular conductor usingPSPICE and FLUX2D software.
