The process requires the generation of large currents via a <i>capacitor bank</i>, producing intense magnetic pressures to achieve deformation. While EMTE offers significant advantages in <i>precision</i> and <i>efficiency</i>, a comprehensive understanding of the interplay between key working conditions and deformation mechanisms remains crucial for optimizing its performance. This paper presents a numerical investigation into the effects of critical working conditions on the electromagnetic tube expansion process. Using a coupled finite element model, the transient magnetic field and resultant tube deformation are analyzed under varying conditions. The results provide insights into the relationship between process parameters and deformation outcomes, highlighting the potential for optimizing EMTE systems for enhanced <i>efficiency</i> and <i>uniformity</i>. This study contributes to advancing the <i>theoretical</i> and <i>practical</i> understanding of EMTE, by offering guidance for the design of more effective forming strategies and equipment.</span></span> Electromagnetic Forming, Finite Element Analysis, Plastic Deformation, Tube Expansion. 79 92 http://ijeee.iust.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-5569-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Ilhem Boutana hafsaoui@univ-jijel.dz 1800319475328460017393 1800319475328460017393 Yes Laboratory of Electrical Engineering and Industrial Electronics, Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Jijel, Jijel, 18000, Algeria Mohamed Rachid Mekideche mohamed.mekideche@univ-jijel.dz 1800319475328460017394 1800319475328460017394 No Laboratory of Electrical Engineering and Industrial Electronics, Faculty of Science and Technology, University of Jijel, Jijel, 18000, Algeria
