Feasibility study on hybrid weld-bonded joints using additive manufacturing and conductive thermoplastic filament

This work aims to explore innovative joining processes for additively manufactured components, and, in particular, to assess the feasibility of hybrid weld-bonded joints by comparing their performance with the baseline bonded and welded joint configurations. The novelty of the proposed solution lies...
