Abstract
In the present work, the weld-through weld-bonding technique has been adopted for manufacturing brass damping sheets. Spot-welding parameters, namely welding current, electrode force and welding cycles, have been optimized and reported for these sheets. The tensile strength, fatigue strength, microhardness measurements and microstructure examination are performed and reported. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science S.A. All rights reserved.
