“…In order to increase the SPR joint strength of a thicker aluminium joined to a thinner steel, Lou et al [43] used resistance spot welding after SPR. Their results showed that by doing this, a 12% lap shear strength increase could be achieved.…”

“…Although there are research and development on other types of SPR, such as solid SPR [31][32][33] or clinch riveting [34][35][36], single-sided SPR (SSPR) [25], gun powder-driving SPR [37], friction SPR [38][39][40][41], inner flange pipe rivet [42] and rivet-welding/ electroplastic SPR [43,44], they are not the main stream and therefore not reviewed in detail in this paper.…”

Self-piercing riveting (SPR) is a cold mechanical joining process used to join two or more sheets of materials by driving a rivet piercing through the top sheet or the top and middle sheets and subsequently lock into the bottom sheet under the guidance of a suitable die. SPR is currently the main joining method for aluminium and mixed-material lightweight automotive structures. SPR was originated half century ago, but it only had significant progress in the last 25 years due to the requirement of joining lightweight materials, such as aluminium alloy structures, aluminium-steel structures and other mixed-material structures, from the automotive industry. Compared with other conventional joining methods, SPR has many advantages including no pre-drilled holes required, no fume, no spark and low noise, no surface treatment required, ability to join multi-layer materials and mixed materials and ability to produce joints with high static and fatigue strengths. In this paper, research investigations that have been conducted on self-piercing riveting will be extensively reviewed. The current state and development of SPR process is reviewed and the influence of the key process parameters on joint quality is discussed. The mechanical properties of SPR joints, the corrosion behaviour of SPR joints, the distortion of SPR joints and the simulation of SPR process and joint performance are reviewed. Developing reliable simulation methods for SPR process and joint performance to reduce the need of physical testing has been identified as one of the main challenges.

“…High strength aluminum alloys, such as the widely used 7075-T6 for aircraft structure applications [24], are another material being considered for automotive body structures. As stated early, thinner gauge high strength materials (e.g., AHSS and high strength aluminum alloy) can be desired for lightweight vehicle applications as a multimaterial car body structure [1,2,25]. For this reason the present work focused on the joining of DP 980 steel and aluminum alloy (AA) 7075-T6 in order to study both the static joint strength that is possible with this combination of materials, as well as the effect of corrosion on joint strength.…”

Study of mechanical joint strength of aluminum alloy 7075-T6 and dual phase steel 980 welded by friction bit joining and weld-bonding under corrosion medium

In this work, we have employed a unique solid-sate joining process, called friction bit joining (FBJ), to spot weld aluminum alloy (AA) 7075-T6 and dual phase (DP) 980 steel. Static joint strength was studied in the lap shear tension configuration. In addition, weld-bonding (adhesive + FBJ) joints were studied in order to evaluate the ability of adhesive to mitigate the impact of corrosion on joint properties. Accelerated laboratory cyclic corrosion tests were carried out for both FBJ only and weld-bonding joints. The FBJ only joints that emerged from corrosion testing had lap shear failure loads that were significantly lower than freshly prepared joints. However, weld-bonding specimens retained more than 80% of the lap shear failure load of the freshly prepared weld-bonding specimens. Examination of joint cross sections confirmed that the presence of adhesive in the weld-bonding joints mitigated the effect of the corrosion environment, compared to FBJ only joints.

“…Figure 10 shows the cross-sectional views of SPR joints of aluminum alloy (top) to vibrationdamping steel (bottom) formed with different die types, as presented in Figure 3. Different from the reversed sheet material's stack configuration, the rivet shank in these SPR joints were fully filled with the stack materials, so no rivet cavity was formed, which is commonly reported when a ductile metal such as aluminum alloy is used as the top material [19,24,25]. The rivet penetrated through the top sheet of the bottom vibration-damping steel, but not into the bottom sheet of the vibration-damping The failure images in the lap shear testing of the SPR joints are presented in Figure 9.…”

In this study, the self-piercing rivet (SPR) joining of vibration-damping steel and aluminum alloy (Al5052-H32) is successfully carried out, for the first time to our knowledge, and the effects of die type and joint configuration on the mechanical performance, failure mode, and geometrical characteristics of the new joint are investigated. The vibration-damping steel and Al5052-H32 SPR joint exhibits the largest tensile–shear load when a flat die is used. An increase in the die taper angle and diameter decreases the mechanical performance of the joint due to the increase in volume of the die, leading to a smaller interlock width of the joint. The joint configuration with Al5052-H32 as a top sheet has superior mechanical performance compared with the reverse configuration, owing to the increase of the interlock width. All SPR joints of vibration-damping steel and Al5052-H32 show consistent rivet pull-out failure, regardless of the joint configuration, because of relatively small interlock width. It is also found that these SPR joints show better mechanical performance than those of SPFC590DP (a skin material of the vibration-damping steel) and Al5052-H32 under the Al5052-H32–top configuration.
