Abstract: Impact welding is a material processing technology that enables metallurgical bonding in the solid state using a high-speed oblique collision. In this study, the effects of thickness of the flier and collision angle on ...

Abstract: Joining aluminum alloy sheets is increasingly important in manufacturing. Traditional welding techniques create a heataffected zone (HAZ) around the joint; however, solidstate joining methods such as impact welding produce ...

Abstract: This paper aims at providing a state-of-the-art review of an increasingly important class of joining technologies called solid-state (SS) welding, as compared to more conventional fusion welding. Among many other advantages ...
