Abstract
Recently, the applications of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) in marine, automobile, aerospace, and other industries have increased significantly. Due to great physical and chemical differences between CFRP and metal, it is not easy to join them together, and this is one of the key problems that many industries need to solve. Thus, a systematic review of the achievements in joining CFRP and metal by welding process is presented in this study to understand the joining mechanism of these materials. Different types of joining methods, such as supersonic welding, laser welding, friction welding, composite welding, and other techniques are studied. The research shows that all different welding methods have pros and cons, and the usage of hybrid joining will be the future trend to improve the joint performance with respect to the joining application of CFRP and metal. In the time ahead, these methods can provide some references for the development of technologies used in joining CFRP and metal.
期刊介绍:
Engineering Transactions (formerly Rozprawy Inżynierskie) is a refereed international journal founded in 1952. The journal promotes research and practice in engineering science and provides a forum for interdisciplinary publications combining mechanics with: Material science, Mechatronics, Biomechanics and Biotechnologies, Environmental science, Photonics, Information technologies, Other engineering applications. The journal publishes original papers covering a broad area of research activities including: experimental and hybrid techniques, analytical and numerical approaches. Review articles and special issues are also welcome. Following long tradition, all articles are peer reviewed and our expert referees ensure that the papers accepted for publication comply with high scientific standards. Engineering Transactions is a quarterly journal intended to be interesting and useful for the researchers and practitioners in academic and industrial communities.
