مناسب بودن کلینگینگ به عنوان یک روش پیوست برای فولاد ساختاری با مقاومت بالا

This study included 11 different clinching methods. In total, 469 test pieces were produced. Despite the high-strength of the materials, all the clinching methods that were examined could be used satisfactorily. The most significant result was that a round tool is appropriate for all the materials tested. In fact, in comparison with results obtained using other types of tool, when the methods were ranked by maximum shear load capacity, the round design appeared in the top three classes seven times out of nine.
