Aluminium/Steel Joints with Dissimilar Thicknesses: Enhancement of UTS and Ductility Through Making an S-Shaped Interface and a Mixed-Mode Fracture

This study presents a simple and innovative design to join a 2 mm thick steel sheet to a 5 mm thick aluminium sheet in a butt configuration. Thickness differences were addressed using support plates, while an aluminium run-on plate was employed to prevent the FSW tool from plunging into the steel. T...
