  text: In mechanical joining, a wide variety of tool geometries and rivet types have
    been developed to meet different requirements. For example, this is due to the
    mechanical properties of sheet materials and the increasing number of material
    combinations that require joining. However, to address rising costs and sustainability
    demands or to react to supply chain disruptions, versatile joining processes are
    needed to reduce the amount of joining equipment required by adapting the process
    to the joining task. This study examines the influence of punch velocity on the
    clinching and semi-tubular self-piercing riveting processes, as well as on the
    binding mechanisms, joint's geometric parameters, and joint properties. The aim
    is to determine the relevant range of punch velocities based on material properties,
    such as strain rate dependence, and to assess whether punch velocity can be utilized
    as a control variable for versatile joining processes. To this aim, similar joints
    made of steel (HCT590X+Z), aluminum (EN AW-6014), and mixed joints of these materials
    are examined. The resulting joining forces are analyzed using force-displacement
    curves to evaluate the influence on the joining process. The form closure is examined
    using micrographs of the joints' geometric parameters. To characterize the force
    closure, the connection resistance is measured using the four-wire sensing method,
    and the load-bearing capacity is determined via a shear tensile test.
