Dear MEMS collegues: I am working on the laser forming of metals, using laser to scan the material to introduce thermal stress in the material. It is very important to have the flow stress datas, to 1. Improve of the design 2. Diagnostics during the manufacturing: 3. have better undertsnading of the material's microstructure change during the manufacturing. The temperature in the scanning path is in range of 400C---1500C, flow stress is in the range of 200MPa to 400MPa. I am looking for some coorperation. Does anyone know the publications or web adresses to extract these informations ? Thank you very match; Best regards George Cheng Manufacturing Research Labortory Columbia University New York NY,10027 (o): (212)666-2393
