Abstract
This study evaluated the effect of preheating on early stage melting behavior of a Al-Si coated hot stamped boron steel bolt during projection welding. A large amount of heat was generated in the early stage of projection welding. Because of the large heat generation, a rapid collapse of the projection..... More

Abstract
Evaluation of electrode degradation in resistance spot welding of 1180TRIP steel was carried out through an electrode life test, and weldability testing was performed by the measurement of the nugget size, the peak load analysis and the measurement of the electrode tip size at 30 intervals. Analysis of the change..... More
