Abstract
In some embodiments, a process comprises applying an adhesive layer to a substrate having a developable shape. The process further comprises initially applying a force to press a thin glass layer against the adhesive layer along a generation line. The generation line moves across the substrate to cold-form the thin glass layer into the shape of the substrate, while maintaining the application of force on areas of the substrate over which the generation line has passed. The application of force is maintained on areas of the substrate over which the generation line has passed until the adhesive cures.
