  text: "One of the major topics in the modern automotive industry is reducing emissions
    and increasing the mileage\r\nrange. To tackle this challenge, on the one hand,
    modifying the powertrain system is a possibility, and on the\r\nother hand, lightweight
    design offers various possibilities. Multi-Material Design (MMD) involves designing
    car\r\nbodies that combine different materials that require joining. Given the
    variety of materials, mechanical joining\r\nprocesses are preferred. Especially
    the current development of the Giga/Mega-casting process concerning\r\naluminium
    casting and the subsequent mechanical joining illustrates the challenges of this
    material group. In car\r\nproduction, aluminium castings are mainly made from
    aluminium-silicon (AlSi) alloys. Ultimately, the alloy\r\nsystem's insufficient
    ductility leads to crack initiation during mechanical joining. Cast parts are
    therefore often\r\nused in areas of the car body that are exposed to high-pressure
    loads. For example, self-piercing riveting (SPR) is\r\nused due to its high load-bearing
    capacity. In this study, improved joinability is demonstrated by influencing the\r\nmicrostructure
    through tailored solidification rates and a developed heat-treatment chain strategy
    adapted for\r\nhypoeutectic AlSi systems. Data on microstructure, mechanical,
    and joining properties are used to develop a\r\nsolidification-joining correlation
    for the SPR process across a range of Si contents and solidification rates. The\r\npurpose
    is to develop the ability to produce suitable aluminium castings with sufficient
    joinability, thereby\r\nimproving versatility."

  text: "One of the most important strategies for reducing CO2 emissions in the mobility
    sector is lightweight construction. In particular, the car body offers several
    opportunities for weight reduction. Multi-material designs are increasingly being
    applied to select the most suitable material for the respective load and ultimately
    achieve synergy effects. For example, aluminium castings are used at the nodes
    of a spaceframe body. Subsequently, these are joined with profiles to form the
    bodyshell. To join different materials mechanical joining techniques, such as
    semi-tubular self-piercing riveting, are deployed. According to the current state
    of the art, cracks occur in the aluminium castings during the mechanical joining
    process as a result of the high degree of deformation. Although the aluminium
    casting alloys of the AlSi-system exhibit low ductility, these alloys reveal excellent
    castability. In particular, the ability to cast thin structural parts is enabled
    by the low liquidus point of the near eutectic aluminium casting alloys.\r\nThis
    study addresses the mechanical joining properties of the near eutectic aluminium
    casting alloy AlSi12, depending on different microstructures. These are achieved
    by annealing processes and modifying agents. Through an adapted heat treatment,
    the previously lamellar morphology can be transformed into a globular morphology,
    which leads to increased ductility and prevents the formation of cracks during
    the self-piercing riveting (SPR). The joinability is investigated using different
    die geometries, whereas the joint formation is analysed regarding crack initiation.
    To evaluate the increased ductility, microstructural and mechanical tests are
    performed and finally, a microstructure-joinability correlation is established."

  text: "The phase and TTT diagrams of the Ti-6Al-4V system allow the development
    of a new forming process for a more energy- and materialefficient production of
    sheet metal parts. This new “TISTRAQ” process is composed of two steps. In terms
    of process technology, the first step is comparable to a direct press-hardening
    process already well known for steels. In this step, the Ti-6Al-4V sheet material
    is resistively heated to a temperature below β-transus Tβ and, after a very short
    holding time, simultaneously formed and quenched by use of water cooled tools.
    Thereby, the β phase undergoes a martensitic transformation. The second step is
    a subsequent short-time annealing, which leads to a hardening of the material.
    In this work, a new test rig using resistive heating technique was used in order
    to produce\r\ndifferent solution treated and tool quenched (STQ) and subsequently
    annealed (STA) states. In this paper, the effects of heating rate, solution treatment
    temperature and holding time on microstructure and mechanical properties are addressed.
    For the characterisation, tensile testing and scanning electron microscopy were
    used. By the systematic variation of applied processing parameters, dominating
    effects on microstructure and mechanical properties were evaluated. For example,
    the solution treatment temperature was found to have a significant effect on microstructural
    features and characteristic strength and strain values. The obtained results reveal
    a high potential for future technical applications."

  text: In biomedical engineering, laser powder bed fusion is an advanced manufacturing
    technology, which enables, for example, the production of patient-customized implants
    with complex geometries. Ti-6Al-7Nb shows promising improvements, especially regarding
    biocompatibility, compared with other titanium alloys. The biocompatible features
    are investigated employing cytocompatibility and antibacterial examinations on
    Al2O3-blasted and untreated surfaces. The mechanical properties of additively
    manufactured Ti-6Al-7Nb are evaluated in as-built and heat-treated conditions.
    Recrystallization annealing (925 °C for 4 h), β annealing (1050 °C for 2 h), as
    well as stress relieving (600 °C for 4 h) are applied. For microstructural investigation,
    scanning and transmission electron microscopy are performed. The different microstructures
    and the mechanical properties are compared. Mechanical behavior is determined
    based on quasi-static tensile tests and strain-controlled low cycle fatigue tests
    with total strain amplitudes εA of 0.35%, 0.5%, and 0.8%. The as-built and stress-relieved
    conditions meet the mechanical demands for the tensile properties of the international
    standard ISO 5832-11. Based on the Coffin–Manson–Basquin relation, fatigue strength
    and ductility coefficients, as well as exponents, are determined to examine fatigue
    life for the different conditions. The stress-relieved condition exhibits, overall,
    the best properties regarding monotonic tensile and cyclic fatigue behavior.</jats:p>

  text: The sealing capabilities of RSS do not only depend on the seal itself but
    also on the lubricant and the shaft surface. A twist structure on the surface
    can cause pumping of the fluid during shaft rotation which can result in leakage.
    In this paper a special, new turning method, which consists of at least two turning
    steps with feed in reciprocal direction, is presented as an alternative to the
    conventional manufacturing process. The goal is to create a surface structure
    with a net pumping rate of zero. Shafts turned with the new proposed method are
    compared to turned shafts from previous investigations [1]. Criteria for the comparison
    are the surface pumping rate, leakage and wear behavior of the surface.

  text: Nowadays wire bonding is a widely-used technology for interconnecting chips
    in the packaging industry. Thereby, it is known that the bond quality massively
    depends upon the microstructure prevailing in the bond and consequently the materials
    used as well as the bonding parameters. However the actually used materials such
    as aluminum and gold are either characterized by comparibly poor conductivity
    or high costs, respectively. Due to its outstanding properties copper is a more
    attractive candidate. Still, a thorough investigation on the interrelationship
    between the material combinations, the processing parameters and the resulting
    microstructure for copper and aluminum wire bonding was not carried out yet. Depending
    on the aforementioned factors the microstructural evolution can be completely
    different during the bonding process. Therefore, this study focuses on the microstructural
    evolution of heavy copper and heavy aluminum wires bonded on copper substrates.
    The evolution of the wire microstructure as well as the wire-substrate-interface
    was investigated by scanning electron microscope in combination with electron
    backscatter diffraction and microhardness measurements. Various samples were extracted
    at different points of the bonding process, namely the as-received condition,
    after touchdown and after completed bonding. The results of the aluminum and copper
    wires were compared to each other in both longitudinal and transversal direction.
    It was found, that the two wire materials were completely different in the as-received
    condition regarding the grain size, the grain morphology, the texture and the
    microhardness. After touchdown the microstructure did not show significant changes
    in both materials, yet a strain-hardening was observed in the copper wire resulting
    from the touchdown force. When the bonding process was completed a different microstructure
    could be observed in both the wire as well as the layer for the materials investigated.
    Furthermore, a destinctive increase in the wire hardness could be found in case
    of copper, which was not observed for the aluminum wire. The ramifications between
    the two wire materials presented in this work will be discussed with the objective
    of optimizing the quality of the bonds.
