Abstract

Lightweight vehicles are essential in the automotive industry and are receiving increasing attention in research studies. In particular, investigations on the welding of advanced high-strength steel (AHSS) have been conducted recently. In this study, the lap joint welding of AHSS was performed through a cold-metal transfer welding process, and the defects in the cross-section were analyzed to determine the optimum welding condition. Additionally, tensile tests were carried out under the selected welding conditions to check if the weld had a similar tensile strength to that of the base material. Fracture mainly occurred at the boundary of the heat-affected zone, which was analyzed through the increase in hardness.


Keywords: AHSS, CMT welding, Tensile strength, Lap joint weld, Hardness
