In the present work, two types of thermo-mechanical treatments were performed to enhance
the mutually contradictory strength and electrical conductivity of Al–Mg–Si alloy. The …

This encyclopedia, written by authoritative experts under the guidance of an international
panel of key researchers from academia, national laboratories, and industry, is a …

Normally, the sheet metal may be pressed or stamped prior to mechanical clinching. The pre-
strain from the pressing or stamping may have an influence on the quality of the clinched …

The presented study introduces a new test method to measure the change of the electrical
resistivity in situ during plastic deformation to characterize the deformation behaviour of …

The industrial applications of Al–Mg–Si alloys conductors still meet the big challenges of
strength and conductivity trade-off. In the present work, a special continuous expansion …

To develop a reliable monitor method for inspecting the quality and strength of the clinched
steel and pre-strained aluminum joints, the electrical resistance method was introduced. A …

Aluminum alloys with a wide range of properties are used in engineering structures.
Selecting the right alloy for a given application entails considerations of its tensile strength …

Experiments have been conducted to investigate the effect of the degree of plastic
deformation on the electrical resistance and thermal conductivity of Al-Mg-Si (6063) alloy …

Though the potential drop method is included in testing standards for creep and fatigue
crack growth, it is not used in fracture toughness tests because it overestimates the crack …

An investigation has been done to study the evolution of the microstructure, mechanical and
electrical properties of AlMgSi alloy destined for the transport of electric energy, in function of …
