The research analyzed the influence of various FSW factors on the weld flange joint. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and grey relational analysis (GRA) were employed to determine the impact of each FSW underwater parameter. Moreover, the statistical Taguchi technique (TM) was used to predict the optimal combination of welding parameters to improve tensile properties, including tensile strength (UTS), yield strength (YS), elongation (EI%), and bending load (BL) of welded joints. Additionally, the actual tests demonstrated a high level of agreement with the results obtained from the proposed mathematical model.

This formation of a continuously circulating polishing system ensures uninterrupted magnetic finishing processes and maintains stability throughout the polishing operation. This study extensively explores polishing force distribution, magnetic field distribution and abrasive grain behaviour in the polishing area facilitated by the magnetic liquid solution. The application of the proposed polishing processes to polymethyl methacrylate, an optical lens material, aims to comprehend the characteristics and validate the feasibility of the polishing method.

The deformation of the target metal plate is closely related to the magnitude and distribution of laser-induced residual stress. Consequently, the relationship between process parameters and residual stress is worth researching. In this research, two process parameters in LPF, laser energy and coverage ratio (spot distance essentially), and one workpiece parameter, plate thickness, were examined through an element method (FEM) of multiple square-spot laser shock peening (SSLSP). Corresponding experiments of SSLSP on aluminum alloy 2024-T351 test blocks were conducted, together with an X-ray diffraction (XRD) residual stress measurement and a surface morphology observation. The FEM simulation and experimental results show that congested laser spots had a significant influence on the magnitude of compressive residual stress; higher laser energy was beneficial to the depth of the compressive stress layer but could decrease its magnitude. Therefore, for better forming ability, higher laser energy and a higher coverage ratio are beneficial; for surface strengthening, laser energy should not be too large, and the coverage ratio should be larger than 100% to ensure that the residual stress on the treated surface is compressive, resulting in better surface integrity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52306,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Lightweight Materials and Manufacture","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2588840424000568/pdfft?md5=405fe15c192527b0f8e76999250f31ce&pid=1-s2.0-S2588840424000568-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142239919","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The combined behavior of recycling-welding procedures is investigated, as they may cause degradations; to ensure that the base thermoplastic polymer's chemical, thermal, and mechanical properties are retained. Scrapped milk bottles made from HDPE material are used as a case study. The highest lap-shear load of 1528 N was achieved at the optimum welding conditions of 1600 rpm rotational speed, 1 mm plunge depth, and 60 s dwell time. Fractographic studies (macroscopic and SEM-based) suggested four types of fracture morphologies depending on welding conditions used. The DSC results showed no significant differences in melting temperature and crystalline content of the polymeric material. The TGA tests showed no significant thermal degradations. The FTIR analysis of all the samples (bottle, recycled sheet, weld material) exhibited characteristic HDPE peaks. All these results suggest combined-welding recycling had a minimal impact on the polymeric structure.
