  • Resistance Spot Welding of Dissimilar Metals (AISI 1005 and AISI 304L): Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Tensile-Shear and Vibration Loads
    Osamah Sabah Barrak, Hadhami Ben Slama, Slim Ben-Elechi, Sami Chatti
    Journal of Techniques, 2025
    This study investigates the resistance spot welding (RSW) of two different steels, AISI 1005 and AISI 304L, using both experiments and computer simulations. Researchers used a Taguchi L16 design to test how welding current, squeeze time, welding time, and hold time affect tensile-shear strength (TSF). The best welding setup reached a TSF of 78.86 MPa, while the lowest settings gave 44.31 MPa. Simulations in COMSOL Multiphysics modeled the thermal, electrical, and mechanical behavior of the welds. The predicted TSF values matched the experiments closely, with less than 5% difference. Free-vibration modal analysis was also done for cantilever and fixed-fixed setups. The experimental and simulated eigenfrequencies were similar, with errors within ±3%, supporting the accuracy of the model. These results show that choosing the right RSW parameters can greatly improve both the strength and stiffness of AISI 1005/AISI 304L joints.
  • Parameters influence on mechanical properties of resistance spot welding: AISI304L/AISI1005

    Pollack Periodica, 2025
    Welding dissimilar metals by resistance spot welding offers several advantages, including lighter weight and better mechanical properties for the shipping, aerospace, and automotive industries. The resistance spot welding parameters effects (welding current, squeeze time, welding time, and hold time) on the welding results of AISI 1005 and AISI 304L were investigated in the present research. The joints' tensile shear force, microhardness, and microstructure were examined. The Taguchi design of experiments approach was utilized to analyze the tensile shear force results statistically. A welding current of 7 kA, welding time of 1.4 s, squeeze time of 1.2 s, and hold time of 0.8 s resulted in an optimum tensile shear force of 6.194 kN. Additionally, the nugget zone demonstrated a higher hardness compared to the base metal and heat-affected zones.
  • Vibration Analysis of Resistance Spot Welding Joint of Similar Metals (Carbon Steel AISI 1005): A Review
    Osamah Sabah Barrak, Slim Ben-Elechi, Sami Chatti
    Journal of Techniques, 2025
    The resistance spot welding (RSW) technique is widely used for joining two or more metal sheets by involving heat generated by electrical resistance. Due to its efficiency and cost-effectiveness, it is commonly utilized in the automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries. Despite its advantages, RSW faces several challenges, including inconsistent joint quality, surface defects, and variations in mechanical strength. These problems are often attributed to welding current, welding time, electrode wear, and heat distribution inconsistencies, which can compromise the structural integrity of welded components. Various advanced processes have been developed to address these problems, including numerical modeling, real-time monitoring systems, vibration analysis, and machine learning-based optimization. These methods enhance weld quality, detect defects early, and optimize welding parameters for improved performance. This study examines the vibration characteristics of resistance spot welds in carbon steel AISI 1005. It employs experimental and numerical approaches to analyze the relationship between vibration behavior and weld integrity. The findings are expected to contribute to developing predictive models for assessing weld quality and enhancing process reliability in industrial applications.
  • EXPERIMENTAL-NUMERICAL EVALUATION OF TENSILE-SHEAR RESPONSE IN RESISTANCE SPOT WELDING OF AISI 304L STAINLESS STEEL JOINTS

    Annals of Dunarea De Jos University of Galati Fascicle Xii Welding Equipment and Technology, 2025
    This study investigated the influence of resistance spot welding (RSW) on the tensile-shear strength of stainless steel AISI 304L joints and was carried out using experimental and FE analyses. The mechanical properties were determined by a tensile shear test of RSW on AISI 304L sheet under different conditions (welding current, weld time, squeeze time, and hold time). The results showed that heat input, mainly controlled by welding current and welding time, was the main factor influencing nugget formation and the load-bearing capacity. A 3D FE model with a close-to-reality mesh of the nugget-HAZ interface was prepared to match the test conditions. The model demonstrated a ring-shaped stress zone along the edge of the nugget and was consistent with the pull-out failure observed in the experiment. The experimental results with errors (3.5–4.8%) and observations can be used to ensure that a properly calibrated FE model can predict RSW performance in AISI 304L and possibly aid in weld parameter optimization. The results provide an effective means of evaluating welds through experiments and simulations.

  • MICROSTRUCTURAL CHARACTERIZATION OF RECYCLED AL–CU CHIPS PROCESSED BY FRICTION STIR CONSOLIDATION IN A CYLINDRICAL DIE
    D. S. Falih, S. K. Hussein, O. S. Barrak, S. Chatti
    Annals of Dunarea De Jos University of Galati Fascicle Xii Welding Equipment and Technology, 2025
    In this work, the microstructural evolution and hardness response of aluminum (AA2024) and high-purity copper machining chips consolidated by the friction stir consolidation (FSC) process using a cylindrical die and pinless tool configuration were studied. Microhardness tests and microstructural analysis were used to assess the effect of three essential processing parameters: tool rotation, preheating time, and chip weight. The hardness measurements showed a clear dependence on heat input and plastic deformation conditions, with regions rich in aluminum reaction showing the highest level of strengthening at optimal consolidation conditions, whereas zones rich in copper only show improvement to the hardness when a sufficient amount of thermal-mechanical energy has been put into the system. The intermediate hardness in the Al–Cu interfacial region indicated an order of magnitude change with a corresponding variation in material flow, chip breakage, and solid-state bonding. SEM observation demonstrated less porosity, better chip dispersion, and stronger microstructure at the higher rotating speed. EDS elemental maps exhibited localized Al–Cu diffusion, but no evidence of the continuous intermetallic layers was identified, while XRD patterns showed only FCC-Al and FCC-Cu, confirming that the FSC thermal cycle was still below the level needed for equilibrium phase formation of Al–Cu compounds. The consolidated disks obtained were dense, well-bonded, and fine-grained, indicating that the FSC has the potential to serve as an energy-efficient, eco-friendly approach for converting metallic machining waste into utility-based solid parts.
  • SUSTAINABLE FRICTION STIR SPOT JOINING PROCESS FOR ALUMINUM ALLOY AA 4045 PARAMETER OPTIMIZATION AND MECHANICAL ASSESSMENT

    Annals of Dunarea De Jos University of Galati Fascicle Xii Welding Equipment and Technology, 2025
    This study aims to improve Friction Stir Spot Joining (FSSJ) parameters for AA4045 by examining their effects on energy use and mechanical strength. Also, it proposes a sustainable FSSJ strategy for AA4045 aluminum alloy through multi-parameter optimization and energy-based process evaluation. A Taguchi L9 experimental design was used to study how the rotational speed, plunge depth, and dwell time affect joint performance. Lap-shear tests showed that speeds between 900 and 1200 rpm with a plunge depth of 0.5 to 0.8 mm gave the best bonding. In contrast, a shallow plunge depth of 0.2 mm did not allow enough penetration, resulting in weak adhesion at the interface. Sample No. 9 (1200 rpm, 0.8 mm, 2 s) had the highest shear strength at 2.7 kN, while Sample No. 1 (600 rpm, 0.2 mm, 1 s) had the lowest. The sustainability assessment found that higher rotational speeds increased energy use from 0.06 to 0.11 MJ per weld, but 900 rpm gave the best strength-to-energy ratio. Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) with ecoinvent data showed a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 0.004–0.007 kg CO₂-eq per weld, confirming that FSSJ of AA4045 is a low-emission alternative to traditional spot welding. These findings show that FSSJ is an eco-efficient joining method for lightweight applications. This research offers a practical guide for using energy-efficient manufacturing in lightweight structures, which is important for reducing emissions in transport and supports SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure) and SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production). Optimised parameters not only lower environmental impact but also improve joint strength.
  • IMPACT OF TAILORED NANOMATERIALS ON MECHANICAL AND THERMAL BEHAVIOR OF POLYMER COMPOSITES
    Abbas K. Hussein, Osamah Sabah Barrak, Tabarak J. Ahmed, Zaid Ihsan Kadhim, Duaa Aba Alazez, et al.
    Engineering for Rural Development, 2025
    The incorporation of nanomaterials into polymer composites, particularly with the use of graphene oxide (GO), has shown great promise in improving the mechanical and thermal performance of 3D-printed materials. However, one of the main problems encountered when developing nanocomposite resins for polymerization-based 3D printing is nanoparticle agglomeration. With their increased surface-area-to-volume ratio, nanoparticles tend to agglomerate inside the composite matrix, which can lead to the deterioration of the final material properties. In this research, the effects of GO dispersion on polymer nanocomposite mechanical and thermal properties used in 3D printing are investigated. Sonication was used to optimize dispersion, taking into consideration optimal and suboptimal states of dispersion and their performance impact on the composite. The findings show that optimal sonication conditions (30 minutes at 70% amplitude) generate the most efficient dispersion and have a positive effect on mechanical parameters like tensile strength and compressive strength. The strengths initially increased with GO content up to 0.05 wt.%, followed by the decrease with elevated concentrations (0.05-0.5 wt.%). Thermal stability was mostly unaffected with varying dispersions and GO contents. These observations point towards the potential of carefully designed GO-based nanoparticles to enhance the mechanical and thermal properties of 3D-printed polymer composites used in the automobile, sports, and biomedical industries. Excellent GO-based nanocomposites are possible for use in demanding industries such as automotive, aircraft, sports equipment, and biomedical devices.
