Abstract:An efficient lightweight construction method is the combination of different materials in order to adapt the structure to the applied load. To join these multi-material structures mechanical joining technologies are applied. However, the rigid tooling systems cannot be adjusted to changing boundary conditions which is why new, versatile joining technologies are required. In the versatile self-piercing riveting (V-SPR) process presented in [1] different material combination are joined by using a multi-range cap… Show more
