This paper presents a review on the resistance spot welding (RSW) of Al/Al alloys, Al
alloys/steel, Al/Mg alloys, and Al/Ti alloys, with focus on structure, properties, and …

With the growing demand for vehicle weight reduction and the increased application of
multimaterial design, it is imperative to address the challenges of welding dissimilar light …

In this study, a systematic research was conducted to compare the performances of the
regression model and artificial neural network in predicting the nugget diameter of spot …

Abstract 7000 series aluminum alloys have particularly high strength, if compared to other
aluminum alloys or even to some high strength steels. Currently, this alloy is considered on …

The primary aim of this investigation is to examine the resistance spot weldability of
dissimilar interstitial-free (IF) and high-strength low-alloy (HSLA) steels. The effect of …

The process of nugget growth is invisible and difficult to test nondestructively in the process
of resistance spot welding. In this study, the change of welding current and electrode voltage …

The effects of different expulsion conditions on the dynamic resistance and weld tensile-
shear strength under shop expulsion conditions in resistance spot welding were …

A novel clinch-resistance spot welding method of dissimilar materials was presented. A
group of punch-die electrodes was used to weld 1-mm 5083 Al alloy and 1-mm galvanized …

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of sheet thickness on nugget size
and residual stresses in resistance spot welding. A two-dimensional coupled electro-thermo …

In this work, the quality of resistance spot welding (RSW) joints of 304 austenitic stainless
steel (SS) is assessed from its tensile shear load bearing capacity (TSLBC). A predictive …
