In the attempt to produce lighter battery packs at a lower cost, replacing common copper parts with aluminum components has been popular approach in recent years. With regard joining technologies, there is growing interest applying laser beam welding pack manufacturing due several advantages such as single-sided and noncontact access while maintaining narrow heat-affected zone. Motivated by need control reduce weld porosity AA1060 busbar ultimate goal enhance durability electrical...
Laser welding is increasingly being used to connect automotive battery packs and weld busbars prismatic cell terminals due its ability a wide variety of materials at high speed. The choice material for the connecting primarily based on weldability, weight, electrical/thermal conductivity cost. Aluminum (Al) chosen as busbar meet these criteria. This paper investigates laser overlap Al producing busbar-to-terminal interconnects assembly. To understand strength laser-welded joints in early...
Adapting to climate change in the water sector requires abandoning two crucial assumptions. First, that represented instrumental record is representative of future. Instead, future resource planning cannot be based on old measurements (or sequences derived from attaching factors data) and it should recognized stationarity no longer viable, and, second, modelling can expected give precise certain predictions probabilistic projections take into account full range uncertainty form basis robust...
AbstractAbstractAluminium extrusions with complex geometries are simulated in three-dimensions using the finite element method (FEM) and experiments were also carried out to investigate behaviour of metal flow, exit velocities, heat transfer for a simple channel more geometry profile. This study clearly shows that both designed extrusions, at initial stage extrusion flow is inhomogeneous, even slight inhomogeneity can significantly affect final extrudates. Both FEM experiment demonstrated...
