--- _id: '29724' abstract: - lang: eng text: In many manufacturing areas, multi-material designs are implemented in which individual components are joined together to form complex structures with numerous joints. For example, in the automotive sector, cast components are used at the junctions of the body and joined with different types of sheet metal and extruded profiles. To be able to join structures consisting of different materials, alternative joining technologies have emerged in recent years. This includes clinching, which allows assembling of two or more thin sheet metal and casting parts by solely cold forming the material. Clinching the brittle and usually less ductile cast aluminium alloys remains a challenge because the brittle character of the cast aluminium alloys can cause cracks during the forming of the clinched joint. In this study, the influence of the heat treatment time of an aluminium casting alloy AlSi9 on the joinability in the clinching process is investigated. Specific heat treatment of the naturally hard AlSi9 leads to a modification of the eutectic microstructure, which can increase ductility. Based on this, it will be examined if specific clinching die geometries can be used, which achieve an optimized geometrical formation of the clinched joint. The load-bearing capacities of the clinched joints are determined and compared by shear tensile and head tensile tests. Furthermore, the joints are examined microscopically to investigate the influence of the heat treatment on the failure behaviour during the load-bearing tests as well as crack initiation within the joining process. article_number: '146442072210758' author: - first_name: Moritz full_name: Neuser, Moritz id: '32340' last_name: Neuser - first_name: Max full_name: Böhnke, Max id: '45779' last_name: Böhnke - first_name: Olexandr full_name: Grydin, Olexandr id: '43822' last_name: Grydin - first_name: Mathias full_name: Bobbert, Mathias id: '7850' last_name: Bobbert - first_name: Mirko full_name: Schaper, Mirko id: '43720' last_name: Schaper - first_name: Gerson full_name: Meschut, Gerson id: '32056' last_name: Meschut orcid: 0000-0002-2763-1246 citation: ama: 'Neuser M, Böhnke M, Grydin O, Bobbert M, Schaper M, Meschut G.
