This study intends to evaluate the strain-based fatigue parameters of Ti–6Al–4V alloys
fabricated through additive manufacturing (AM), considering the effects of AM methods …

In this paper, the mechanical behavior of single strap joints was investigated under tensile
loading. Four sets of specimens were fabricated eg, adhesively bonded, friction stir spot …

In this paper, the differences and similarities between two-layer and three-layer self-piercing
riveting (SPR) joints were systematically analysed by combining experimental tests and a …

Recently, there has been a growing trend towards an ever greater use of composite
materials in aircraft structures. This necessitates a search for effective ways of joining these …

The present study evaluated the ratcheting response of notched and press-fitted Al 7075-T6
specimens under stress-controlled asymmetric cycles. The degree of the interference fit …

This research deals with the fatigue behavior of 200 small single lap multiple-riveted joint
specimens, widely used for aeronautic structures. The tests were performed with three …

The effects of structural parameters on the forming quality and mechanical properties of
CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced polymer)/Al (aluminum) self-piercing riveting (SPR) were …

Most of the mechanical components are exposed to environmental attacks and different
loading conditions, eg, internal pressure, high-temperature gradient, and angular velocity …

Aluminum 6061-T6 alloys have numerous applications in the industry due to their unique
properties such as higher corrosion resistance and strength-to-weight ratio. Friction stir …
