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.

“…brass, bronze etc) are known as engineering materials used in large amount of friction-prone components. They are parts of the machines such as bushing, liners, bearing, sleeves etc due to their good thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance and self-lubricating properties [1,2]. The C93200 is a commercial copper based alloy used widely as bearing material.…”

Composite materials are unique because reveal great physical, mechanical and thermal properties. However, there is yet huge potential to enhance their features by adding specific reinforcement in the matrix in order to reach the requirements of a particular application. This paper presents detailed research on the impact of marble dust reinforcement to mechanical and tribological features of copper based metal alloy (C93200 series) composites dedicated for bearing applications. The novel composites made with marble dust reinforcement (1.5 to 6.0 wt%) were manufactured using the liquid metal stir casting technique. A micro-hardness tester and universal testing machine (Instron-5967) were used to obtain the mechanical properties. While, the POD tribometer was engaged to detect the wear features by simulating various operating conditions by setting the temperature constant (35°C). The Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) was used to investigate the wear mechanisms produced at the hard contact between the composites with different marble content against an EN-31 hardened steel disc. The data gathered in this research proves an improvement in the mechanical properties, especially for a higher reinforcement ratio of novel composite, in respect to the matrix alloy. Furthermore, the novel marble dust reinforced composites reveal much better wear resistance in respect to un-reinforced composite that make it suitable for bearing application.

Xing et al [28] compared the mechanical behaviour of copper alloy H62 sheets joined by high-speed mechanical fastening techniques such as self-piercing riveting and clinching. Neugebauer et al [29] developed dieless clinching with a resistive heating cartridge (under the flat die anvil) to heat-up (up to 200 °C) magnesium sheets before clinching.…”
