The use of adhesive joints has increased rapidly in the past decades. Driven by the growing
demand for lightweight structures, composite adherends have increased in popularity …

Abstract riveted–adhesive hybrid joining technique is suitable for joining dissimilar material
due to excellent performance and tightness of the joint. In this paper, electromagnetic self …

Composite materials parts manufacturing is based on the interactions of simultaneous as
well as consecutive process steps. These influence the composite part properties and …

As the fibre reinforced plastic composites gain larger and larger share in industry, the
problem of joining them with metal elements becomes significant. The current paper is the …

As fiber reinforced plastic composites gain an increasingly larger share in aerospace
structures, the problem of joining them with metal elements becomes significant. The current …

Self-piercing riveting (SPR) is a cold forming technique used to fasten together two or more
sheets of materials with a rivet without the need to predrill a hole. The application of SPR in …

The adoption of multi-material lightweight structures has been recognized as one of the most
effective and promising solutions to improve fuel efficiency and accelerate the electrification …

In the present study, the mechanical behaviour of polymer–metal hybrid connections
produced by clinching is investigated. Thin sheets were joined using different tools including …

The present paper is aimed at investigating the feasibility of the clinching process for joining
aluminum and Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) thin sheets. Split dies with sliding …
