Dissimilar metal joining of aluminum to steel by ultrasonic plus resistance spot welding - Microstructure and mechanical properties
A new joining method, i.e. ultrasonic plus resistance spot welding, is developed for dissimilar metal joining of aluminum alloy (Al) to steel. In this method, a thin Al insert is first joined to a steel sheet using the solid-state ultrasonic spot welding (USW). Next, the Al insert side of the steel...
