- Friction stir welding and explosive welding of aluminum/copper: process analysisPublication . Carvalho, G. H. S. F. L.; Galvão, I.; Mendes, R.; Leal, R. M.; Loureiro, A.The 6082 aluminum alloy was welded to copper-DHP by friction stir welding and explosive welding. The effect of each welding process on the microstructural evolution, the intermetallic phases distribution, and the mechanical behavior of both types of welds was analyzed and compared. The microstructural changes proved to be much more expressive in friction stir welding due to the larger area under plastic deformation, the stirring and mixing of the alloys, the longer time under high temperature, and the longer interaction times between the base materials during welding. As explosive welding process is much faster, it avoids extensive microstructural changes and significant interaction of the materials, reducing the intermetallic volumes and their distribution along the interface. The friction stir welds presented Cu-rich intermetallics while the explosive welds presented Al-rich intermetallics. For alloys that can easily form brittle intermetallic phases, excessive interaction during the welding process leads to a very poor mechanical behavior of the joints.
- Influence of base material properties on copper and aluminium–copper explosive weldsPublication . Carvalho, G. H. S. F. L.; Galvão, I.; Mendes, R.; Leal, Rui; Loureiro, A.The influence of base material properties on the interfacial phenomena in copper and aluminium–copper explosive welds was studied. Two explosive mixtures with different detonation velocities were tested. Sound aluminium–copper joints with effective bonding were achieved by using an explosive mixture with a lower detonation velocity. High energy explosives led to extensive interfacial melting, preventing the production of consistent dissimilar welds. Unlike to the similar copper joints, the aluminium–copper welds presented very asymmetrical interfacial waves, rich in intermetallic phases and displaying a curled morphology. The interaction of the materials in dissimilar welding was found to be completely different depending on the positioning of each alloy in the joint, i.e. positioned as the flyer or as the baseplate.
- Weldability of aluminium-copper in explosive weldingPublication . Carvalho, G. H. S. F. L.; Galvão, I.; Mendes, R.; Loureiro, A.; Leal, RuiA large number of aluminium-copper explosive welds were produced under different welding conditions to perform a broad analysis of the weldability of this combination. The influence of the explosive mixture and the relative positioning of the plates on the welding results were analysed. When the aluminium alloy is positioned as the flyer plate, continuous interfacial melting occurred under the low values of energy lost by the collision, and collision point velocity. This proved that the weldability of the aluminium-copper combination is higher when the copper is positioned as the flyer. A mismatch between the experimental results and the existing theories that define the requirements for achieving consistent welds was noticed. Especially for welds produced using the aluminium alloy as the flyer, the experiments proved to be more restrictive than the theories. These theories, despite being widely applied in dissimilar welding literature, present several limitations concerning aluminium-copper welding. New approaches considering the formation of intermetallic phases at the interface, the properties of both welded metals, and/or the difference in their properties should be developed
