1. A process for forming a shaped three dimensional article, comprising the steps of:

  • deforming an intermediate form that consists essentially of a plurality of thermoplastic elongated members while clamping the intermediate form during the deforming in such a way that while a force is applied for deforming the intermediate form, the intermediate form is free to move within a predetermined limit; and

    optionally, at least partially consolidating the thermoplastic elongated members of the intermediate form for forming a three dimensional article.
