Laser shock bulging process is a promising flexible microforming method in which the laser shock wave pressure is employed to cause plastic deformation and fabricate microfeatures on thin sheet metals. However, the influence of initial grain size and laser power density on the forming quality of bulged parts has not been well understood. In this paper, three various initial grain sizes as well as...
