The resistance spot welding (RSW) method was used to join aluminum alloy AA 1050 and copper alloy UNS C50100 sheets. Mechanical properties of the joints were examined. The influence of welding process parameters on tensile shear force of the joints was discussed. The design of experiments (DOE) method was used to analyze the influence of welding parameters on the mechanical properties of the joints. Three RSW parameters were used: welding current, squeeze time, and welding time. The results showed that the joint shear stress increased with increasing the welding current until a value of 12000 Amp. Then the shear stress decreased. The tensile shear stress increased with increasing the welding and squeeze time. As a consequence, it can be possible to weld copper with aluminum by RSW.
The influence of pack carburizing by different leftover organic materials was studied.Egg shell, dropping flower,orang shell mixed with charcoal, was used as refresher and its effect on corrosion fatigue of low carbon steel 1020 AISI (American Iron and Steel Institute) was studied. Carbon steel 1020 originally used for manufacturenumerousdevice parts such as gears, shaft, connecting rod.Severalsamples for the tensile and fatigueexaminationsareequipped from the based metalagreeing toASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials)descriptions. Pack carburizing is carried outby charcoal for liberation atomic carbon.The diffusion procedure on selectedsamples were pack carburizing using charcoal with addition leftover organic materialsas energies withratio of30% pack carburizing and at925 for two hours. After that, the samples quenched in water and tempered. Tensile,hardness, microstructures examination were implemented. Corrosion fatigue wascarried by rotating bending device in sea water 3.5% NaCl. The results showed that all carburizing compound causes an improving in corrosion fatigue due to the change in microstructure between the surface of specimens,its core and the comparative residual stress which produce by carburizing process.Egg shell give the high value and charcoal the lower value with respect to the basemetal.
This work aims to join sheets of carbon steel to aluminum alloy AA6061. A lap joint arrangement was used with a joint lap area of dimensions * 25 25 mm. The joining procedure was carried out using a rotating tool of 10 mm shoulder diameter. Three process parameters, with three levels for each parameter, were selected to investigate their effects on joints quality. The parameter’s levels for each experiment were designed using the design of the experiment method (DOE). The results indicated that the two materials were joined by a mechanical interlock at an interface line, without formation of intermetallic compounds. The shear force of the joint reached an ultimate value of. 482kN. The shear force of the joint improved by increasing plunging depth of the tool. Samples of minimum shear force value failed by a pull-outing aluminum metal from the carbon steel specimen. Samples of higher shear force value exhibited a shear mode of fracture. Increasing the rotating speed and decreasing pre-heating increased the process temperature.
