Abstract
High-speed forming uses high explosives, gun powder, combustible gas mixes and
compressed gases as sources of energy. Special mathematical models are used to take into account specific dynamic properties. Different technological processes of forming have been modeled in the work. They use liquid (water), elastic (polyurethane), and gaseous transmitting medium. The difference between impulse energy transference, load distribution on a blank and tool surface, and also wave propagation is shown for used transmitting medium. The developed procedures allow taking account significant thermal effects at adiabatic compression of the material and heat transference directly from products of explosion. Specially developed modules and mathematical models have allowed the application of standard software products for modeling high-speed forming and sheet metal punching processes.
