TL;DR: In this paper, the impact of electromagnetic stirring (EMS) on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the Al/Ti resistance spot weld was investigated and compared to those in an Al/Al resistance spot welding joint, and the effects of the welding current, welding time, and electrode force upon the tensile shear properties were also studied.

TL;DR: In this paper, a parametric study was performed to investigate the feasibility of dissimilar Al/Cu joining by a thermo-compensated resistance spot welding process, and the tensile shear properties of the joints were found to be affected by both the weld's physical properties and metallurgical factors: (1) increasing heat input, the nugget size and indentation increased, which led to the failure mode of the joint to change from interfacial failure to pull-out mode.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported the shunting characteristics of dissimilar aluminum alloys 2219/5A06 of unequal-thickness for the resistance spot welding (RSW) process.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of the partial melting zone on nugget growth in aluminum alloys' resistance spot welding (RSW) process was investigated by exerting same welding schedule on dissimilar 2219/5A06 aluminum alloy combination (of unequal-thickness) and commercial pure aluminum 1060 with the same gauge.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the shunting characteristics of resistance spot welding in unequal-thickness 2219 and 5A06 aluminum alloys when three spot welds are arranged in a triangular pattern.
