  text: 'Clinching as a mechanical joining technique allows a fast and reliable joining
    of metal sheets in large-scale production. An efficient design and dimensioning
    of clinched joints requires a holistic understanding of the material, the joining
    process and the resulting properties of the joint. In this paper, the process
    chain for clinching metal sheets is described and experimental techniques are
    proposed to analyze the process-microstructure-property relationships from the
    sheet metal to the joined structure. At the example of clinching aluminum EN AW
    6014, characterization methods are applied and discussed for the following characteristics:
    the mechanical properties of the sheet materials, the tribological behavior in
    the joining system, the joining process and the resulting material structure,
    the load-bearing behavior of the joint, the damage and degradation as well as
    the service life and crack growth behavior. The compilation of the characterization
    methods gives an overview on the advantages and weaknesses of the methods and
    the multiple interactions of material, process and properties during clinching.
    In addition, the results of the analyses on EN AW 6014 can be applied for parameterization
    and validation of simulations.'
