| Abstract Scope |
The use of lightweight materials such as high strength steels, aluminum alloys and composites is increasing. The joints of dissimilar alloys as the Aluminum Alloy 6082-T6 and the HC420LA steel are studied in this work. The selected joining process is the Magnetic Pulse Welding (MPW) which enables to weld these two alloys, being non-joinable by other traditional welding technologies. The technology involves a strong electromagnetic-mechanical-thermal interaction. The investigation will be developed mostly on computational modeling by means of the use of LS-DYNA software, taking into account the key process parameters and their influence. The work will finish presenting experimental results of the cases modelled by finite elements in order to validate the predictive feasibility of the numerical analysis. All the analized cases reached the welding of both blanks and this was confirmed by metallographic characterization. The results show that the simulations developed follow the same geometrical behavior as experimental results. |
