Abstract:

There has been very little work of any kind completed on fiber-composite joining. The results of the preliminary experiments on the metallurgical joining of the composites by solid-state welding, resistance spot welding, arc spot welding, gas-tungsten arc welding, and electron-beam welding are insufficient to permit reliable conclusions to be made.
