A comprehensive review and assessment of the electromagnetic forming process is presented. Even though electromagnetic forming is a technology known for a few decades, renewed interest in it for industrial applications is currently taking place. Emphasis is mainly placed on the physical phenomena that govern the process as well as its main technological aspects, such as magnetic forming and joining, magnetic pulse welding, and dynamic magnetic compaction of powders. Moreover, some other important subjects concerning electromagnetic forming such as process equipment and workpiece formability are briefly presented in this paper. Applications of the process, mainly regarding manufacturing of advanced materials, are presented and discussed. This review article cites 149 references.
