in this paper, the optimum shape of tailor-welded blanks (twb) is investigated. the optimization is performed for two different case studies. the first example is deep drawing of a twb with dissimilar materials and uniform thicknesses and the next example is deep drawing of a twb with similar materials and non-uniform thicknesses. the effect of blank optimization on the weld line movement is in...

Despite its exceptional ability to join dissimilar materials and environmental friendliness, several challenges must be addressed in magnetic pulse welding (MPW). The conventional weldability criterion (i.e., minimum impact velocity) is analytically calculated as a function of material properties without considering the geometry electromagnetic coil, electrical physical parameters, making veloc...

Brazing fillers for joining applications are essential manufacturing and designing advanced materials. Several types of brazing have been developed in recent decades to join similar or different engineering Important parts automotive aircraft components, including steel, often joined by brazing. In addition, ceramic components microwave devices circuits with a high level integration microelectr...

Dissimilar material bonding is a challenge constantly being considered within engineering. This paper presents method for tailoring metal surfaces by covalently grafting polymers that are directly complimentary to their respective dissimilar material. Acrylic acid was grafted onto the surface of aluminium which subsequently bonded poly-lactic (PLA), nylon-6, and nylon-6/carbon fiber hybrid via ...
