The joints between different lightweight materials play a significant role in multi-material design of structural components for automotive industry, aiming to reduce the vehicle’s weight without compromising performance or safety. Yet, conventional mechanical joining technologies between metals and Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymers (CFRP) either create the need of drilling a hole in the...

Thanks to their good mechanical properties and low structural weight, multi-material structures are a promising approach in the automotive industry to lightweight design, body construction and functionalization. Especially metal and plastic are mainly combined to achieve improved properties of the final component compared to mono-material structures.
