N2 - In this study, fibre metal laminates (FMLs) have been made of one layer of consolidated woven glass-fibre reinforced polypropylene (Twintex®) sandwiched between two layers of galvanised steel, and their formability during various stamp forming operations has been assessed. The FML blanks were formed until failure occurred using a hemispherical punch in an open-die configuration. The experiments were performed on the blanks at room temperature and at preheated temperatures of 110 and 140 0C under a range of blank holder forces. Three-dimensional photogrammetry has been used to measure the strains on the lower surface of the blank in real-time during forming and the evolution of strain during forming has been used to elucidate the deformation behaviour.
