Aluminum alloy 6082-T6 is an important material for manufacturing the outer skin of high-speed trains, and laser shock forming can realize the rapid forming of complex-shaped plates. In order to improve the efficiency of the simulation modeling of laser shock forming for aluminum alloy 6082-T6, Python scripting language was used for the secondary development of Abaqus. A plugin was utilized to simulate and analyze the laser shock forming process of aluminum alloy 6082-T6. The coordinates of the plate after laser impact molding were measured using a coordinate measuring machine to calculate the arc bow height of the plate. The accuracy of the simulation model was verified by comparing with the simulation results. The deformation characteristics of plastic strain and arc height of aluminum alloy 6082-T6 under different laser process parameters were analyzed. The simulation plugin has a concise interface, high operability, and accurate results with the other parameters unchanged. When the laser energy is 5 J, 6 J, and 7 J, the corresponding arc heights are 5.9 mm, 6.6 mm, and 7.2 mm, respectively. As the thickness of the sheet increases, the deformation changes from concave at 1 mm to convex at 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm. As the spot size increases from 1 mm to 5 mm, the transmission mode of the shock wave gradually changes from spherical wave to planar wave, and the arc height of the sheet increases from 4.6 mm to 8.2 mm. With the increase in the spot overlap rate, the impact area accumulates residual stress, and the arc height of the sheet is 5.7 mm, 6.6 mm, 7.3 mm, and 8.5 mm, respectively. The secondary development of ABAQUS 2021 using Python 3.6 scripting language has improved the efficiency of simulation modeling and provided reference for rapidly predicting the deformation characteristics of aluminum alloy 6082-T6 under different laser process parameters.
