Investigation of Magnetic Pulse Welding on Lap Joint Investigation of Magnetic Pulse Welding on Lap Joint of Similar and Dissimilar Materials Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Yuan Zhang, B.S., M.S. Graduate Program in Materials Science and Engineering The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Glenn S. Daehn, Advisor Dr. Sudarsanam Suresh Babu, co-Advisor Dr. Michael J. Mills Dr. David Rigney Dr. Shelly D.Jepsen Copyright by Yuan Zhang 2010 Abstract The main objective of this research is to investigate the magnetic pulse welding (MPW) process, the resulting joint strength and the interface welding metallurgy. It is known that traditional fusion welding is not able to weld dissimilar materials with different thermal properties, but MPW has been applied to both similar and dissimilar materials. MPW is a solid state impact welding technology that may provide metallurgical bonding without melting and solidification, and there is no significant heat affected zone (HAZ). It shares the same physical principle with explosive welding (EXW) and is good for workpiece with length scale in the order of millimeter to centimeter. This research first compares three impact welding technologies, EXW, MPW and laser impact welding (LIW), for different length scale with different driving system. The joining is likely the result of an instability associated with jetting, which scours the surface clean during impact. It was found that the metallurgical bonding by oblique impact was only realized at the combination of certain impact velocity and impact angle. Taking 0.254mm thick copper alloy 110 plate to plate joint as an example, the suitable impact velocity was larger than 250m/s and the suitable impact angle was within 2º~7º. As a result, the joint interface undergoes high strain rate deformation and the strain rate was established in the order of 106~107s-1. In this research, aluminum alloy, copper alloy, and low carbon steel were ii welded by MPW using electromagnetic force to accelerate the metal. The strengths for both similar and dissimilar material joints were examined by lap shearing test, peeling test and microhardness test, and the similar materials joint was also tested by nanoindentation. The joint strength was greater than that of the base metals and the welded region was hardened by high velocity impact. The tensile failure and peeling failure were outside of the welded region. The welded interface microstructure was characterized by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and field ion atom probe microscopy. The welded interface indicated wave interface morphology. Due to adiabatic heating and high strain rate deformation, the welded interface microstructure exhibited various features, including grain refinement with large grain boundary misorientation angle, formation of band structure, deformation twins, lamellar grains, and high dislocation density (~estimated to be 1011m-2). Similar materials welding suggested pure solid state bonding, while dissimilar materials joints sometimes contained small amount of intermetallic phase distributed discontinuously in the vertex region of certain waviness along the welded interface. In order to identify the coupled thermal, electromagnetic, and mechanical properties during the impact welding process, a finite element analysis was attempted via LS-DNYA®. Some of the simulation results were compared to the instrumented experiments and the validated model can be used to investigate the successful welding criterion with regard to the impact angle and impact velocity for other materials. iii Dedication In memory of my beloved grandmother, Ms. Fenying Zhang. 谨以此论文献给我挚爱的外祖母,张粉英女士。 iv Acknowledgements My study in the past four years cannot be completed without the help from many individuals and the financial support from American Welding Society.

The ABSTRACT acceleration of the outer tube through the standoff gap is higher near the open Magnetic pulse welding (MPW) produces a mechanically induced essentially solid end of the tube due to higher magnetic state but partially fusion-type weld, with an extremely small fusion zone and pressure and decreases down to zero at extremely high cooling rates. Composition of material jet emission in MPW was inves- the weld end where there is no move- tigated for similar and dissimilar metal lap joints. The jet residues emitted from Al/Al ment of the outer tube (Refs. 6–8). As a and Al/Mg lap joints were collected and characterized, and their composition was mi- croanalyzed by scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive spectometry result, the collision is oblique and the (SEM-EDS). The composition of the jet remains was governed by the degree of rela- initial part of the joint collides at a high tive density difference between the two metal components. The metal jet emitted collision angle and at very high collision during Al/Mg welding was mainly composed of Mg, the metal component with lower velocity; frequently, no bond is formed density.

Accepted 28 July, 2011 An AISI 304 type of austenitic stainless steel and low carbon steel were cladded by explosive welding in this study. Four explosive loading rates were used with the range of 1 and 2.0. Stand-of distance (s=t) was also used as a welding parameter. Cladded materials have been subjected to heat treatment at 250°C for times of ranging from 1 to 4 h. Effect of heat treatment on the microstructure and mechanical properties has been evaluated using optical and scanning electron microscopy, EDS analysis technique and hardness tests, respectively. The results indicate that straight and wavy structures of bonding at the interface were obtained according to the loading of explosive rate. The grain size of the cladded materials near the interface were increased with the duration of heat treatment. Hardness values at the interface of the cladded materials were decreased with the increment of heat treatment period. Key word: Explosive welding, hardness, microstructure, stainless steel, low carbon steel. INTRODUCTION Explosion welding is one of the joining methods steel has low corrosion resistance therefore, it may be consisting of a solid state welding process in which cladded with the materials such as aluminium, titanium controlled explosive donation on the surface of a metal.

Multiple materials with tailored properties are integrated into structures via a large spectrum of joining techniques. Welding is a viable solution in mass scale production in an automotive sector still dominated by steels, although hybrid structures involving other materials like aluminum are becoming increasingly important. The welding of dissimilar metals is difficult if not impossible, due to their differential thermo mechanical properties along with the formation of intermetallic compounds, particularly when fusion welding is envisioned. Solid-state welding, as with magnetic pulse welding, is of particular interest due to its short processing cycles. However, electromagnetic pulse welding is constrained by the selection of processing parameters, particularly the coil design and its life cycle. This paper investigates two inductor designs, a linear (I) and O shape, for the joining of sheet metals involving aluminum and steels. The O shape inductor is found to be more efficient both with magnetic pulse (MPW) and magnetic pulse spot welding (MPSW) and offers a better life cycle.

    Journal of Manufacturing and Materials Processing Article Probing Magnetic Pulse Welding of Thin-Walled Tubes Koen Faes 1,* , Rishabh Shotri 2 and Amitava De 2 1 Belgian Welding Institute, Technologiepark Zwijnaarde 935, B-9052 Ghent, Belgium 2 Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay, Mumbai 400076, India; [email protected] (R.S.); [email protected] (A.D.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 29 October 2020; Accepted: 9 December 2020; Published: 11 December 2020 Abstract: Magnetic pulse welding is a solid-state joining technology, based on the use of electromagnetic forces to deform and to weld workpieces. Since no external heat sources are used during the magnetic pulse welding process, it offers important advantages for the joining of dissimilar material combinations. Although magnetic pulse welding has emerged as a novel technique to join metallic tubes, the dimensional consistency of the joint assembly due to the strong impact of the flyer tube onto the target tube and the resulting plastic deformation is a major concern. Often, an internal support inside the target tube is considered as a solution to improve the stiffness of the joint assembly. A detailed investigation of magnetic pulse welding of Cu-DHP flyer tubes and 11SMnPb30 steel target tubes is performed, with and without an internal support inside the target tubes, and using a range of experimental conditions. The influence of the key process conditions on the evolution of the joint between the tubes with progress in time has been determined using experimental investigations and numerical modelling. As the process is extremely fast, real-time monitoring of the process conditions and evolution of important responses such as impact velocity and angle, and collision velocity, which determine the formation of a metallic bond, is impossible.
