DOI: 10.3390/ma13184170
Abstract: Effects of processing parameters on preheated (heat-assisted) clinching process to join aluminum alloy 5052-H32 (AA5052) and thermoplastic carbon-fiber-reinforced-plastic (TP-CFRP) sheets for cross-tension (CT) specimens were first studied. Preheating was critical since brittle TP-CFRP could be… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ma15124237
Abstract: The clinching process is widely used in joining lightweight sheet metal. We proposed a novel rotated clinching process (RCP), which is characterized by a flat bottom die structure and twin rotating punches. The aim of… read more here.
