    Effects of welding parameters on friction stir spot welding of high density polyethylene sheets
    (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2012) BİLİCİ, MUSTAFA KEMAL; Bilici, Mustafa Kemal; Yukler, Ahmet Irfan
    Friction stir spot welding parameters affect the weld strength of thermoplastics, such as high density polyethylene (HOPE) sheets. The effects of the welding parameters on static strength of friction stir spot welds of high density polyethylene sheets were investigated. For maximizing the weld strength, the selection of welding parameters is very important. In lap-shear tests two fracture modes were observed; cross nugget failure and pull nugget failure. The tool rotational speed, tool plunge depth and dwell time were determined to be important in the joint formation and its strength. The joint which had a better strength fails with a pull nugget failure morphology. Weld cross section image analysis of the joints were done with a video spectral comparator. The plunge rate of the tool was determined to have a negligible effect on friction stir spot welding. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Application of Taguchi approach to optimize of FSSW parameters on joint properties of dissimilar AA2024-T3 and AA5754-H22 aluminum alloys
    (ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2013) BİLİCİ, MUSTAFA KEMAL; Bozkurt, Yahya; Bilici, Mustafa Kemal
    In this study, the effect of plate positioning on mechanical properties of dissimilar lap joints was investigated by friction stir spot welding (FSSW) process. The determination of the welding parameters plays an important role for the weld strength. For the effective use of the dissimilar aluminum joints, the FSSW must have an adequate strength. The quality of the joint was evaluated by examining the characteristics of the joining efficiency as a result of the lap-shear tensile test. Four process parameters were selected: the tool rotation speed, dwell time, tool plunge depth, and tilt angle. The process parameters were optimized by Taguchi technique based on Taguchi's L9 orthogonal array. The optimum welding process parameters were predicted, and their percentage of contribution was estimated by applying the signal-to-noise ratio and analysis of variance. The experimental results showed that the positioning of the plates played an important role on the strength of the joints. Finally, the results were confirmed by further experiments.
