They found that almost all welding methods for plastics are also adequate for thermoplastic composites, with the exception of friction welding methods, which may cause microstructural deterioration of the composite through fiber breaking or realignment.
Other subjects studied include analysis of hammering deformation processes by the dynamic explicit finite element method, hot stamping processing experiments with quenchable boron steel, macrokinetics hierarchies of states at dynamic superplasticity, simulation of internal stress in injection molded parts, and numerical computation of a linear friction welding process.
Linear friction welding is effective on parts with complex geometry and resins that are difficult to weld with ultrasonics.
