Resistance spot welding of 6061-T6 aluminum: Failure loads and deformation

Modelling and Process Analysis of Resistance Spot Welding On Aluminium Alloy AA6063 T6 Sheets Used In Transportation Applications

“…The input heat melts and softens the sheets and if the weld force remains constant, a deeper indentation is created. A spike in electrical current results in a large indentation and a potential burn through effect on thin metal plates [18]. Also, particularly on the high condition where the spatter is excessive, the appearance of the weld is important [19].…”

Welding parameters influence on fatigue life and microstructure in resistance spot welding of 6061-T6 aluminum alloy

“…This welding condition was denoted as ''nominal''. Two other welding conditions were applied to produce specimens at other conditions: ''low'' and ''high'' conditions [15,21,22]. The lap-shear coupons were produced by Edison Welding Institute [16] and the geometry is illustrated in Fig.…”

The Influence of Welding Parameters on the Nugget Formation of Resistance Spot Welding of Inconel 625 Sheets

“…Moshidi and SattariFar [14] developed a 2D axisymmetric electro-thermomechanical finite element model to study the effect of welding time and current intensity on nugget size in RSW process of AISI type 304L austenitic stainless steel sheets using ANSYS commercial software package. Although there are various investigations on the modeling of RSW process, [15][16][17][18] more studies are still useful to reach a better understanding of electro-thermo-mechanical behavior of materials during and after the process. To the best of the authors' knowledge, there is no research dealing with welding of Inconel 625 sheet by RSW reported in the literature.…”
