- Effect of friction stir processing parameters on the microstructural and electrical properties of copperPublication . Leal, Rui; Galvão, I.; Loureiro, A.; Rodrigues, D. M.Friction stir processing (FSP) is an innovative technology, based on friction stir welding (FSW) operative principles, which can be used for changing locally the microstructure and the mechanical properties of conventional materials. In this work, the copper alloy C12200 was friction stir processed using two distinct tools, i.e. a scrolled and a conical shoulder tool, in order to promote different thermomechanical conditions inside the stirred volume, and consequently, varied post-processed microstructures. The influence of the tool geometry and tool rotation and traverse speeds on the microstructural and electrical properties of the processed copper alloy was analysed. The processing conditions were found to have an important influence on the electrical conductivity of the processed material. The differences in electrical conductivity were explained based on dislocations density effects. The effect of the dislocations density on electrical conductivity of the processed material was found to prevail over the effect of the grain boundaries.
- 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
