Abstract
The interference-fit size has a significant effect on the riveted lap joints of CFRP/Al alloy laminates. The requirements for the interference-fit size are different because of the strengthening of heterogeneous materials. However, in the riveting process of CFRP/Al alloys, the heterogeneous laminates lead to poor structural strength because of the different interference-fit size requirements. Therefore, differently assembled riveting molds are designed to acquire a novel interference-fit size, and the tensile test is adopted to evaluate their tensile properties. In addition, the fracture failure of CFRP/Al alloy laminate riveted lap joints is observed with an ultra-depth-of-field microscope. Finally, the best assembly type is identified as the trapezoid riveting mold combined with an arc riveting die, and the sidewall intersection angle of the trapezoid riveting mold is 66°, which could achieve a suitable interference-fit size and a better mechanical performance.
