Mig welding of dissimilar metal (steel and aluminium)

Tailor welded blanks (YWBs) is a method used in automotive industries that offer an excellent opportunity to reduce manufacturing costs, decrease vehicle weight and improve the quality of sheet metal stamping. In this project, the objective is to study welding parameters used in joining two dissimil...
