Abstract

Tailor-made metallic structures are fabricated by welding, adhesive bonding, and mechanical joining methods. Here the aim is not only to fabricate lightweight structures, but also to develop novel methods of joining. Lightweight structures are advantageous in several ways including reduction of fuel consumption and vehicle emissions. Developing novel methods of joining is advantageous due to the possibility of joining of dissimilar materials, improved mechanical performance, and microstructures. In the chapter, initially, tailor-welded blanks (TWB) are introduced, and after that, fabrication of TWBs by laser welding, friction stir welding, and friction stir additive manufacturing are elaborately discussed. Some critical issues in modeling the deformation during fabrication of TWBs is also discussed. A brief account of mechanical behavior of adhesive bonded sheets and mechanical joining are presented in the later part.
