Summary: | Recently, mechanical joining processes have received much attention for joining multi-materials. In particular, these processes have a great demand in the automobile industry for weight reduction. The press-fitting process is a representative mechanical joining process. In this process, the shape of the interfacial serration on the joining plane is very important because it has a significant effect on the joining strength. In this study, the characteristics of the aluminum-steel press joining process were investigated according to the shape of the interfacial serration of the joining plane. The deformation of the material and the forming load were investigated by conducting finite element analysis. In addition, the unfilled height of the material, joining force, and torque were measured experimentally. |
