The frictionless dome test can be used to evaluate formability and determine the flow stress curve of sheet materials under biaxial forming conditions. The flow stress curve, obtained from the frictionless dome test can be determined up to larger strains than in tensile test. As a result the need for extrapolation of the stress-strain curve is reduced. The objectives of this study are to (a) for a given sheet material determine K and n values in Hollomon's Law (σ = Kɛn) by using experimental punch force vs. stroke curve and (b) develop the computer program, “PRODOME”, to automate the calculation of K and n values
