Abstract

Evaluating the strength performance of spot-welded joints of dissimilar material is critical for their continued integration into the automobile and aerospace industries. The effect of weld joint strength is an important consideration in the design of weld structures. The objective of the present work undertaken to investigate the effect of the input process parameters on the strength of the welded joint of dissimilar material. Full factorial design (FFD) has used for designing the experiment matrix. Further, experimental results have used to develop a mathematical model to predict the strength of the spot weld joint. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) has been applied to establish the correlation between the process parameters and their interaction on the output. The confirmation test case experiments have conducted for validating the developed mathematical model and observed that the developed model is capable of evaluating weld joint strength within the process parameters.
