The bonding interfaces of ultrasonic aluminum welds were examined by means of cross section metallography, microhardness tests and SEM observations. Adhesion produced by local plastic deformation was found to be the most plausible mechanism. Based on the appearance of fracture surfaces of peeled welds, a relationship between surface contact asperities and bonding formation is suggested. The ef¬fects of weld time and clamping force on the weld strength were also examined. Weld strength was found to be an asymptotic increasing function of weld time and an optimal clamping force was obtained. 1980 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392971584 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1392971584 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
