3D X-ray Microscopy of Ultrasonically Welded Aluminum/Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Hybrid Joints

Ultrasonically welded hybrid aluminum/fiber-reinforced PEEK joints were analyzed non-destructively with an X-ray microscope. The potential and limitations of the technology as a non-destructive testing method were investigated. For a quantitative evaluation, joints with suitable and unsuitable param...
