A study on Crack propagation characteristics of interlaced holes for key automotive components.2026-01-0186To be published on 04/07/2026
Aiming at the engineering problem that the stress interference of interlaced holes dominates crack propagation and directly affects driving safety in the hole group structure of key components such as chassis and body frame in the automotive field, in order to accurately reveal the quantitative influence of key parameters of interlaced hole placement (crack deflection Angle, longitudinal hole spacing) on the crack evolution of automotive hole group components, This study adopts the approach of numerical simulation combined with variable control to conduct systematic analysis. Taking an aluminum alloy thin plate with two relatively initial cracks (a commonly used structural material for automobiles) as the research object, multiple sets of typical interlocking hole structure variable models of automotive components covering different crack deflection angles and longitudinal hole spacings were constructed in the ABAQUS software. The J-integral was calculated by the circumscribed line

A Study on Fatigue Life Prediction Method for Point-Based Joints Considering Multiple Fracture Modes – FDS, Blind Rivet, and Blind Nut Focus2026-01-0180To be published on 04/07/2026
The application of light weight alloys for vehicle bodies such as aluminum alloys and composite materials are rapidly advancing to support the construction of multi-material vehicle bodies. These materials play a crucial role in reducing overall vehicle weight, enhancing fuel efficiency, and complying with increasingly strict environmental regulations. As the automotive industry continues to evolve toward electrification and sustainability, the integration of lightweight and high-performance materials has become a key design strategy. However, the use of multiple materials introduces new challenges in manufacturing, particularly in joining technologies. Since different materials have varying mechanical properties, thermal behaviors, and surface characteristics, selecting appropriate joining methods is essential to ensure structural integrity and durability. Depending on the material types, thicknesses, production processes, and cost constraints, various joining techniques—such as

A Data-Driven Model for Predicting Casting Solidification Time and Mold Thermal Stress2026-01-0233To be published on 04/07/2026
This study proposes a data-driven surrogate modeling framework for predicting solidification time and mold thermal stress during low-pressure die casting (LPDC) of aluminum alloy wheels. The methodology employed an optimal Latin hypercube design (OLHD) to sample key parameters including cooling channel geometry and process conditions. A sequential simulation methodology combining ProCAST and Abaqus was implemented to generate a comprehensive dataset of solidification times and thermal stress distributions. Based on this dataset, surrogate models were developed using Support Vector Regression, Kriging, and Polynomial Response Surface Methodology, with their hyperparameters automatically tuned through Bayesian Optimization (BO). The optimized models were rigorously evaluated using four statistical metrics: Coefficient of Determination (R²), Mean Squared Error (MSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE). The evaluation results show that the BO-SVR model

Design and Simulation Analysis of an Integrated Honeycomb-filled Front Bumper for a Special Vehicle2026-01-0475To be published on 04/07/2026
In frontal collisions of automobiles, the bumper beam at the front of the vehicle plays a crucial role in absorbing energy and protecting the vehicle body during a collision. To enhance the collision resistance of a specific type of special vehicle with a non-load-bearing body structure, this paper focuses on this type of vehicle and conducts a study on the design and collision performance of an integrated vehicle front bumper-impact beam structure based on aluminum alloy additive manufacturing technology. A novel bumper structure is proposed, which integrates the front bumper and the front impact beam of the vehicle and is integrally formed using aluminum alloy additive manufacturing technology. This integrated structure is directly connected to the vehicle frame. Firstly, based on the appearance of the special vehicle body and the form of the front impact beam of traditional passenger vehicles, an integrated design of the vehicle front bumper-impact beam structure is carried out and

Tensile and Fatigue Behavior of High Pressure Die Cast AE44 Magnesium Alloy at Elevated Temperatures2026-01-0234To be published on 04/07/2026
Tensile and cyclic behavior of high pressure die cast AE44 magnesium alloy have been studied at room temperature and elevated temperatures up to 350°C. Anelastic behavior has been found in both tensile and cyclic deformation at the temperature below 150°C. With increasing temperature, the anelasticity disappears, and tensile and cyclic behaviors become similar to other engineering materials, such as steels and aluminum alloys, i.e. the total strain contains only elastic strain and plastic strain. A method to determine the yield strength at 0.2% plastic strain (σ0.2) is proposed. By using the proposed method, the yield strength σ0.2 is higher than that determined using the traditional method, which is more suitable to the materials that do not exhibit anelasticity. It is believed that the anelasticity is closely related to twinning in Mg alloy, which disappears at elevated temperatures.

Optimizing joint efficiency in stainless steel-aluminum alloy FSW joints through advanced parameter control2026-01-0228To be published on 04/07/2026
The present work investigates the friction stir welding (FSW) of dissimilar materials, specifically stainless steel 304 and aluminum alloy AA2024-T3, to analyze their tensile strength behavior. The significant challenges inherent in joining these materials, stemming from their vastly divergent thermal and mechanical properties, are addressed through a structured experimental and statistical methodology. The L18 Taguchi mixed orthogonal array was employed to systematically evaluate the influence of three critical process parameters: tool rotational speed, welding speed, and tool pin offset. Eighteen experimental trials were conducted using a butt joint configuration. The analysis identified tool rotational speed as the most influential parameter affecting the joint integrity. A combination of 450 rpm rotational speed, 20 mm/min welding speed, and a 1.5 mm pin offset toward the aluminum side yielded the optimum results, achieving a peak ultimate tensile strength (UTS) of 344.7 MPa and a

Modelling and Analysis of Complex Shaped Cracks2026-28-0048To be published on 02/12/2026
This study provides an extensive analysis through finite element analysis (FEA) on the effects of fatigue crack growth in three different materials: Structural steel, Titanium alloy (Ti Grade 2), and printed circuit board (PCB) laminates based on epoxy/aramid. A simulation of the materials was created using ANSYS Workbench with static and cyclic loading to examine how the materials were expected to fail. The method was based on LEFM and made use of the Maximum Circumferential Stress Criterion to predict where cracks would happen and how they would progress. Normalizing SIFs while a crack was under mixed loading conditions was achieved using the EDI method [84]. We used Paris Law to model fatigue crack growth using constants (C and m) for the materials from previous studies and/or tests. For example, in the case of titanium Grade 2, we found Paris Law constants with C values from 1.8 × 10-10 to 7.9 × 10-12 m/cycle and m values from 2.4 to 4.3, which illustrate differing effects of their

Comparative Study of ADC12, A356, and AlSi10Mg Alloys in Sand Casting of EV Battery Housing2026-26-02961/16/2026
This research investigates the applicability of ADC12 aluminum alloy in sand casting processes and compares its casting behavior and performance with that of conventionally sand-cast alloys such as A356 and AlSi10Mg. ADC12 is primarily utilized in high-pressure die casting (HPDC) and low-pressure die casting (LPDC) due to its excellent castability, pressure tightness, and favorable mechanical properties in thin-walled components. However, its use in sand casting is minimal globally, primarily due to the alloy’s high silicon and iron content, which can lead to poor feeding characteristics, increased porosity, and structural non-uniformity in non-pressurized molds. In this study, 3 mm thick test castings were produced using conventional sand casting methods, with particular attention to mold and core design to simulate challenging flow and solidification conditions. Comparative castings of A356 and AlSi10Mg were also produced under identical conditions to establish performance baselines

Effect of Flow Forming Process on the Mechanical Properties and Microstructure of GDC & LPDC Cast Aluminium Alloy Wheels2026-26-02981/16/2026
Aluminum alloy wheels have become the preferred choice over steel wheels due to their lightweight nature, enhanced aesthetics, and contribution to improved fuel efficiency. Traditionally, these wheels are manufactured using methods such as Gravity Die Casting (GDC) [1] or Low Pressure Die Casting (LPDC) [2]. As vehicle dynamics engineers continue to increase tire sizes to optimize handling performance, the corresponding increase in wheel rim size and weight poses a challenge for maintaining low unsprung mass, which is critical for ride quality. To address this, weight reduction has become a priority. Flow forming [3,4], an advanced wheel rim production technique, which offers a solution for reducing rim weight. This process employs high-pressure rollers to shape a metal disc into a wheel, specifically deforming the rim section while leaving the spoke and hub regions unaffected. By decreasing rim thickness, flow forming not only enhances strength and durability but also reduces overall

Study the Tool Profile and Rotational Speed on Mechanical Attributes of FSW of Al 6063 Alloy05-19-03-00231/12/2026
Friction stir welding (FSW) of Al 6063 alloy plates of 6 mm thickness was investigated in the present study for exploring the mechanical attributes of the welded joints. The tool profile significantly influences the quality of joints produced by FSW. In the current study, the influence of tool profile and FSW process parameters on the FSW weld characteristics of similar joining of Al 6063 plates has been investigated. The effect of FSW tool rotational speed (TRS) and tool travel speed on the FSW weld properties, mainly microstructure characteristics, microhardness, and ultimate tensile strength (UTS), have been studied. Comparison of two different tool profiles, namely taper and cylindrical tool, has also been examined. The effect of transient temperature distribution has also been studied for varying FSW process parameters. When increasing the tool’s rotational speed from 800 to 1200 rpm at a fixed traverse speed of 80 mm/min, a rise in peak temperature is observed. Conversely

Numerical Assessment of High-Cycle Fatigue Behavior of Notched Cast Aluminum Alloy A357-T6 Based on Affected Depth05-19-03-00241/9/2026
This article aims to estimate the high-cycle fatigue (HCF) behavior of a circumferential notched A357-T6 cast aluminum alloy based on the affected depth (AD) approach. This technique is applied as a useful way to anticipate the fatigue life of notched components using the multiaxial fatigue criterion proposed by Crossland. Simulations of the cyclic finite element (FE) calculations in Abaqus involve implementing an elastic–plastic combined Chaboche model. Calculations lead to determining the Kitagawa–Takahashi diagram for this type of defect under the load ratio Rσ = 0.1, showed good agreement with the experimental data. The study provides a clear quantification of the effect of the notch on fatigue resistance. The fatigue limit of the notched specimen decreases by about 16% when the radius of the notch is equal to 3 m. This cast aluminum alloy has revealed a low sensitivity to notches. The notch sensitivity factor (q) was estimated for different defects and conditions, indicating that

Simulational and Experimental Validation with Structural Redesign of Bearing Housing in a Formula SAE Transmission System2025-36-011012/18/2025
The purpose of the study is to present the validation stages of the transmission bearing housings in a Formula SAE prototype and the redesign of the components to reduce mass. The objective was to design and implement bearing housings that are lightweight while withstanding the loads they are subjected to. A numerical simulation using the Finite Element Method (FEM) was conducted to analyze the behavior of the bearing housings, made of 7075 aluminum alloy, under the same boundary conditions as in the test bench. This simulation provided information on deformation and stresses and was used to determine optimal locations for strain gauge placement. Experimental bench tests were performed, applying forces ranging from 100 N to 600 N. With an application of a 600 N load, an experimental deformation of 1.77E-04 mm/mm was obtained, while FEM indicated 1.71E-04 mm/mm, demonstrating significant correlation, with a 3.4% margin of error. This pattern was observed for all loads, highlighting

Higher-Strength, Higher-Toughness Die Cast Wheel Material using Recycled Aluminum2025-32-000711/3/2025
In an attempt to reduce CO2 release from alloy wheel production, we have developed an aluminum alloy for casting that satisfies necessary property requirements using recycled aluminum, but without heat treatment. The wheel is a critical safety feature of any vehicle, and it should have toughness and strength .In many wheels, virgin aluminum containing small amounts of impurities is used to maintain toughness, and heat treatment (T6), which is post-casting quick heating and quenching, is applied to provide strength. At the start of this project, we focused on two wheel-manufacturing processes, production of virgin aluminum and heat treatment, from which a large amount of CO2 is released. By switching to recycled aluminum, CO2 was reduced to one-ninth the original amount. The issue with recycled material is that impurities grow in the metal structures as intermetallic compounds and this reduces toughness. To deal with this issue, we have chosen high-pressure die casting (HPDC), in which

Influence of Laser Sintered Process Parameters on Crystalline Characteristics and Mechanical Properties of AlSi10Mg Alloy05-19-03-001911/3/2025
The present study examines the influence of process parameters on the effect of strength and crystalline properties of AlSi10Mg alloy with laser sintered process. A detailed work was carried out with the effects of varying the laser power, scan speed, and hatch distance on crystalline structure, hardness, and surface roughness. From the analysis, the improved surface quality and mechanical performance were achieved with a scan speed of 1200 mm/s, a laser power of 370 W, and a hatch distance of 0.1 mm. An increase in hardness, improved surface finish, and reduced porosity was observed with decreased hatch distance. However, the balanced results were obtained for scanning speed of 1200 mm/s and laser power of 370 W. The ideal processing conditions decreased the crystalline size, increasing the overall material strength, when crystalline analysis was carried out. The higher scanning speeds supported improved grain refinement and heat diffusion, with the poor hardness value. With the lower

Investigation of the Effect of Rotation Speed and Post-Weld Heat Treatment on Mechanical Properties and Structure of Friction Stir Welding AA6061 Joints05-19-02-00169/25/2025
This study aims at examining the effect of tool rotational speed on the microstructural and mechanical properties of friction stir welded joints of AA6061 aluminum alloy, both pre- and post-heat treatment. The quality of the joints was assessed initially through tensile, hardness, and charpy impact tests, as well as microscopic observations. During the second stage, solid solution heat treatments were conducted at 535°C, followed by aging on additional specimens welded at identical speeds. The latter underwent hardness tensile tests and microscopic examinations. A comprehensive assessment of the outcomes from various tests validated the influence of metallurgical phenomena, including recrystallization, precipitation, and structural defects on overall resistance. The results showed an improvement in strength, ductility, and impact energy was observed in the case of welding at high rotation speed (1400 rpm). At the same speed, ductility almost doubled after post-weld heat treatment

Durable Aluminum Alloys for Brake Disc and Rotor Applications2025-01-03589/15/2025
Lightweight materials are essential in reducing the overall weight and improving the efficiency and performance of ICE and electric vehicles. The use of aluminum alloys is critical in transitioning to a more energy sustainable and environmentally friendly future. The accessible combinations of high modulus to density and strength to weight ratios, as well as their excellent thermal conductivity, make them an ideal solution for overall weight reduction in vehicles, thereby improving fuel efficiency and reducing emissions. Aluminum alloys with high strength and lifetime thermal stability have been industrialized for usage in brake rotor applications. Amongst the most used aluminum alloys with high thermal stability are 2618-T8 and 4032-T6 for use in aerospace and automotive industries, respectively. However, when it comes to prolonging the life of a product at temperatures that exceed 200°C, the properties of these alloys will quickly degrade within the first 300 hours of exposure
