	  abstract     = {This paper gives an overview of a deep drawing
process by pressurized liquid medium separated from the sheet by a
rubber diaphragm. Hydroforming deep drawing processing of sheet
metal parts provides a number of advantages over conventional
techniques. It generally increases the depth to diameter ratio possible
in cup drawing and minimizes the thickness variation of the drawn
cup. To explore the deformation mechanism, analytical and
numerical simulations are used for analyzing the drawing process of
an AA6061-T4 blank. The effects of key process parameters such as
coefficient of friction, initial thickness of the blank and radius
between cup wall and flange are investigated analytically and
numerically. The simulated results were in good agreement with the
results of the analytical model. According to finite element
simulations, the hydroforming deep drawing method provides a more
uniform thickness distribution compared to conventional deep
drawing and decreases the risk of tearing during the process.},
