The mechanical properties of metals change temporarily or permanently under application of electric currents under deformation. This phenomenon is often referred to as electroplasticity. The electroplasticity of metals and their alloys has been investigated under various loading conditions including tensile, compressive, bending, and hardness tests. Electrically-assisted manufacturing (EAM) utilizes this electroplasticity in manufacturing processes. Due to its technical advantages such as enhanced formability and reduced springback; EAM is energy efficient with reduced process time. Recent developments in EAM include various bulk deformation and sheet metal forming processes. This paper summarizes previously reported electroplastic behaviors of various metals or metal alloys and recent EAM processes. In addition, contemporary EAM patents are briefly reviewed
