We evaluated temperature change and weld structure of nugget after pulsed current pattern which repeats short pausing time and welding time after main welding cycles. We revealed that change of weld structure in nugget improves cross tensile strength of high strength steel sheets of above 980MPa grade.
In-line weld quality monitoring method for spot welding. The method could enable automatic assessment of weld nuget quality from welding current and voltage data.
On the evaluation of resistance spot welded joint strength with high-strength steel sheets, it is important to evaluate the residual stress distribution in resistance spot welds. In this study, the residual stress distribution was discussed with X-ray diffraction method.
