Abstract
Fiber metal laminates (FMLs) are widely used in aerospace industry due to their unique high specific strength, fatigue resistance, corrosion resistance and other excellent characteristics. Thermosetting FMLs is generally used for forming large size parts and rarely used as raw material for producing small size and complex shape parts. This study attempts a methodology that stamping thermosetting FMLs to form cylinder shape parts before the curing process. The forming limit height of FMLs were analyzed by choosing different core materials, layup direction and skin layer thickness. And through the optimization of these variables, a better-quality part has been formed.
