Friction Surfacing Deposition by Consumable Tools
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Friction surfacing is a new variation of friction stir processing for surface property modification of metallic substrates. There is an increasing body of literature about friction surfacing by deposition of metal from a ...
Microstructure and Mechanical Performance of Cold Metal Transfer Spot Joints of AA6061-T6 to Galvanized DP590 Using Edge Plug Welding Mode
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Dissimilar joining of aluminum to steel poses a challenge for arc welding. In this study, aluminum AA6061-T6 and hot dipped galvanized DP590 steel were joined using the Fronius cold metal transfer (CMT) welding process ...
Thermally Assisted Self-Piercing Riveting of AA6061-T6 to Ultrahigh Strength Steel
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Self-piercing riveting has been widely used in vehicle body manufacturing to join aluminum alloys or aluminum to steel. However, it is difficult to rivet ultrahigh strength steel (UHSS) because of its resistance to piercing ...
Effect of Welding Mode on Remote Laser Stitch Welding of Zinc-Coated Steel With Different Sheet Thickness Combinations
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studied the effects of two welding modes, i.e., keyhole penetration and full penetration, on laser welding of two zinc-coated steel stack-ups of the same total sheet thickness but different sheet thickness ...
Simulating Thermoelectric Effect and Its Impact on Asymmetric Weld Nugget Growth in Aluminum Resistance Spot Welding
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Resistance spot welding (RSW) of aluminum–aluminum (Al–Al) is known to be very challenging, with the asymmetric growth of the weld nugget often observed. In this article, a semicoupled electrical–thermal–mechanical finite ...
Joining Lithium-Ion Battery Tabs Using Solder-Reinforced Adhesive
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Reliable and robust tab joints in pouch cells are key to the functional reliability and durability of lithium-ion batteries. In this study, a novel solder-reinforced adhesive (SRA) bonding technology is applied to lithium-ion ...
Effect of Process Parameters on Joint Formation and Mechanical Performance in Friction Stir Blind Riveting of Aluminum Alloys
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Aluminum alloys have been increasingly adopted in the fabrication of automotive body structures as an integral component of mass savings strategy. However, mixed use of dissimilar aluminum alloys, such as sheet metals, ...
Affected Zones in an Aluminum Alloy Frictionally Penetrated by a Blind Rivet
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Friction stir blind riveting (FSBR), taking the advantages of friction stir processing with blind riveting, is a new joining process for dissimilar materials. This work is the first to employ electron-backscattered diffraction ...
Formation and Structure of Work Material in the Friction Stir Forming Process
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Friction stir forming (FSF) is a new environmentally friendly manufacturing process for lap joining of dissimilar materials. Fundamentally, this process is based on frictionally heating and mechanically stirring work ...
Friction Stir Blind Riveting for Joining Dissimilar Cast Mg AM60 and Al Alloy Sheets
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A new onesided joining method, friction stirring blind riveting (FSBR) was successfully implemented to form lapshear joints for dissimilar metals from pairs of 3.05 mm thick cast Mg AM60, rolled 1.5 mm thick Al AA6022, ...
