TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 license for the use of the authors' work under the Matdes MEDLINE MEDLINE project.

TL;DR: In this paper, a mini-peel test was developed to enable local fracture in the heat affected zone (HAZ) for numerical inverse calibration of constitutive parameters, and the fracture constants of weld zones calibrated using Cockcroft-Latham ductile failure criterion were incorporated in finite element models to predict the failure modes of spot welds.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of metal thickness and stack orientation on weld quality and mechanical behaviour of resistance spot welded (RSW) AA5754 aluminium was investigated, and the results derived from over 1000 samples show that: the GMT has a significant effect on welding quality by controlling progression of weld nugget from under-developed to over penetrated.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the process of resistance spot welding of zinc-coated steel and show that liquid metal embrittlement can be increased by a zinc layer for an increased resistance against corrosion.
Abstract: Advanced high strength steels are usually coated by a zinc layer for an increased resistance against corrosion. During the resistance spot welding of zinc coated steel grades, liquid metal embrittl...
