AbstractThis paper reviews the processing factors in joining ceramics to metals concerning the reliability. Thermal expansion mismatch has a great influence not only on the absolute value of strength but also on the reliability of joints. Large thermal stress increases the scatter of joint strength because of the presence of defects induced during joining process. One should insert an appropriate interlayer to relax the stress between a ceramic and a metal. Surface roughness also has some influence on the reliability. A roughly ground bond face leads large scatter in strength. Scratches must be removed before joining. Unjoined area reduces joint strength especially in solid-state joining. In brazing, the homogeneity in the braze layer should be also controlled carefully. A slight applied pressure during brazing can preserve the integrity of joints.

In this study, the joint strength and microstructure of carbon steels welded by an super-deformation joining process in air were investigated. The two block of model steels are overlapped and heated. The steels are welded with 1000% deformation at approximately 1000°C.The joint strengths are evaluated by uniaxial tension testing. The joint microstructures and fractured surfaces are investigated with OM and SEM. The results revealed that the mechanical properties of joint are close to the matrix’s, the grains adjacent to the interface are merged into one grain, which indicates that both blocks are soundly joined,fracture surface was covered with dimple indicating ductile fracture occurred. Joint fracture behavior is initiated by the brittle fracture of scale inclusions and growth around the internal oxides. Surface scale is the most important factor of sound joining.

Clinching is an economical sheet joining technique that does not require any consumables. Besides, after its usage, the joints can be recycled without much difficulty, making clinching one of the most sustainable and eco-friendly manufacturing processes and a topic of high research potential. In this work, the influence of surface roughness on the load-bearing capacity (strength) of joints made by the mechanical clinching method in cross-tensile and lap-shear configuration is explored. Additionally, a correlating mathematical model is established between the joint strength and its surface parameters, namely, friction coefficient and wrap angle, based on the belt friction phenomenon. This correlation also explains the generally observed higher strength in lap-shear configuration compared to cross-tensile in clinching joints. From the mathematical correlation, through friction by increasing the average surface roughness, it is possible to increase the strength of the joint. The quality of the thus produced joint is analyzed by cross-sectional examination and comparison with simulation results. Experimentally, it is shown that an increment of >50% in the joint strength is achieved in lap-shear configuration by modifying the surface roughness and increasing the friction coefficient at the joint interface. Further, the same surface modification does not significantly affect the strength in cross-tensile configuration.

Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a solid state joining process which possesses a great potential to revolutionise the aerospace industries. Distinctive materials are selected as aerospace alloys to withstand higher temperature and loads. Sometimes these alloys are difficult to join by a conventional welding process but they are easily welded by FSW process. The FSW process in aerospace applications can be used for: aviation for fuel tanks, repair of faulty welds, cryogenic fuel tanks for space vehicles. Eclipse Aviation, for example, has reported dramatic production cost reductions with FSW when compared to other joining technologies. This paper will discuss about the mechanical and microstructure properties of various aerospace alloys which are joined by FSW process.

Abstract It is demonstrated in this work that a high temperature thermal process including oxidation and N2 annealing at 850 oC can provide tensile strain of ~0.58 % at maximum into Ge-on-Insulator (GOI) structures without any special patterning or external stressors. The different impacts of oxidation and annealing on tensile strain generation, surface roughness and crystal qualities in the GOI structures fabricated by Ge condensation and wafer bonding are systematically examined. Tensile strain of 0.47 % is achieved without severe thermal damages under the optimal thermal process condition, which indicates the high potential of the present method for improving the performance of GOI n-channel MOSFETs. The influence of thermal expansion mismatch between Ge and SiO2 are suggested as a possible physical origin of high amount of tensile strain into GOI structures.


Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is a topical and propitious solid-state joining process producing economical and strengthened joints of age-hardened and heat-treatable Aluminium Alloy AA 6082-T6. Mechanical and fractural behaviour of weldments were investigated in order to find crack initiation and necking on the weld zone thereby perceiving the complete behaviour of fracture occurred near the weld zone. Weldments are fabricated by employing four tool pin profiles namely MX-TRIVEX, A-SKEW, Three flat threaded and Concave shouldered MX-TRIFLUTE tools at various rotational speeds 1000 rpm, 1200 rpm and 1400 rpm at single traverse speed 25 mm/min. EXCETEX-EX-40 CNC wire cut EDM with 0.25 mm brass wire diameter has been employed to perform the extraction of tensile test specimens from the weldments according to ASTM E8M-04 standard. Tensile test was performed on elctromechanically servo controlled TUE-C-200 (UTM machine) according to ASTM B557-16 standards Maximum Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS) of 172.33 MPa (55.5% of base material) and 0.2% Yield Stress (YS) of 134.10 MPa (51.5% of base material) were obtained by using A-SKEW at 1400 rpm, 25 mm/min and maximum % Elongation (%El) of 11.33 (113.3% of base material) was obtained at MX-TRIVEX at 1000 rpm, 25 mm/min. Minimum UTS of 131.16 MPa (42.30% of base material) and 0.2% YS of 105.207 MPa (40.46% of base material )were obtained by using Concave shouldered MX-TRIFLUTE at 1400 rpm, 25 mm/min. Minimum % El of 5.42 ( 54.2% of base material) was obtained by using A-SKEW at 1000 rpm, 25 mm/min.

In abrasive belt grinding, abrasive belt granularity, abrasive belt speed,feeding speed and grinding force have a great influence on the surface roughness. In order to predicate the surface roughness of Ti-6Al-4V,a response surface methodology are used to build the model to predict surface roughness,and the influence of various parameters on surface roughness was analysed. The research shows that with the abrasive belt granularity and abrasive belt speed increasing,the work piece surface roughness decreases;with the grinding force and feeding speed increasing,the work piece surface roughness increases. Through the test,the response surface methodology with high prediction accuracy,provides a theoretical basis for the reasonable selection of abrasive belt grinding parameters.

Hybrid lightweight components with strong and reliable bonding qualities are necessary for practical applications including in the automotive and aerospace industries. The direct laser joining method has been used to produce hybrid joints of Ti6Al4V and glass fiber reinforced polyamide (PA66-GF30). Prior to the laser joining process, a surface texturing treatment is carried out on Ti6Al4V to improve joint strength through the formation of interlock structures between Ti6Al4V and PA66-GF30. In order to reduce the generated micro-pores in Ti6Al4V-PA66-GF30 joints, a modified laser joining method has been proposed. Results show that only very few small micro-pores are generated in the joints produced by the modified laser joining method, and the fracture strength of the joints is significantly increased from 13.8 MPa to 41.5 MPa due to the elimination of micro-pores in the joints.

Alloy cast iron cylinder is the mainstream product used in engine nowadays. However, the machinability of alloy cast iron is poor because of its enhanced mechanical properties. In this paper, turning experiment has been conducted to study machinability of alloy cast iron with uncoated and coated carbide tools under dry cutting condition. The results of the experiment indicated that the turning performance of alloy cast iron with coated tool was much better than uncoated tool in terms of cutting force coefficients and tool wear. Feed rate has a great influence on surface roughness, and appropriate tool wear is benefit of finished surface roughness.
