Abstract:STRENX and DP steels are advanced high-strength dual-phase steel types used in the automotive industry for producing lightweight vehicles that have low cost, high fuel efficiency, and can carry more load volume. In this study, STRENX 700 CR and DP 800 steels were joined by resistance spot welding (RSW) using medium frequency direct current (MFDC). Some parts were joined under atmospheric conditions, while others were joined by applying regional pre-heating (RPH) to their heat-affected zones (HAZ) before weldin… Show more
