The parameter of angular speed, depth of tool, and time of dwell of friction welded spot was studied on the alloy of aluminium. To do so, the impact from parameters was investigated through tensile shear test on the welded alloy and using the design of experiment (L8). ANOVA is then used to see important factors and contributions via main effects plots. It was found that angular speed of tool had a big impact on tensile shear load with 45 %, time of dwell 34 %, depth of tool 10 %. The angular speed of 1 400 rpm, time of dwell 9 s, and depth of tool 3.5 mm were the optimal parameters in this study. Keywords: light material welding, optimize weld process, weld softened material

This study investigates the quality of self-piercing riveted joints between vibration-damping aluminum (Al) and other dissimilar materials, namely aluminum alloy (AL5052-H32), steel alloy (GA590DP), and carbon-reinforced plastic (CFRP). The effects of die types (flat, cone, and nipple) on the geometrical characteristics and mechanical performance of the joints are studied using a cross-section examination and tensile shear load testing. The failure modes of each joint are also presented, showing the nature of the forces leading to the joint failures. The results indicate that, for all configurations, adequate joining between vibration-damping Al with AL5052-H32 is expected with a maximum shear load up to 3.28 kN. A shear load up to 3.6 kN was measured for the joints with GA590DP panels with acceptable top and bottom seal characteristics. A vibration-damping Al panel can only be positioned at the bottom when riveting with CFRP due to the brittle nature of CFRP. A tensile shear load up to 2.26 kN was found, which is the lowest amongst the materials tested in this study.

The mechanical performances of welded joints under bi-axial loading are significant to the reliability of various engineering structures. However, the protocol for the mechanical characterization of welded joints still needs to be improved to represent the mechanical performances of welded joints under complex loading conditions. In this work, an experimental design is proposed for the mechanical characterization of 2219 aluminum alloy welded joints. The target is to investigate the effects of combined tensile-shear load on the mechanical responses and failure behavior of 2219 aluminum alloy welded joints. The tensile-shear characterization was then conducted using a newly developed U-notch aluminum alloy welded joints specimen. In addition, standard tensile test and standard shear test were conducted to validate of the U-notch specimen design. This newly proposed experimental protocol is suitable to obtain mechanical properties of 2219 aluminum alloy welded joints subjected to tensile-shear load.

The effect of the base strip temperature on the bonding between base strip and overlay strips in a three-layer clad strip cast by a vertical-type tandem twin roll caster was investigated. The base strip was 3003 aluminum alloy and the overlay strip was 4045 aluminum alloy. The bonding was investigated for base strip temperatures ranging from 200 °C to 550 °C. The bonding condition was investigated by cold-rolling, bending-to-failure test and tensile shear test. The shear stress increased with the base strip temperature. Sound bonding was achieved at base strip temperatures higher than 450 °C. The results of this study indicated that the second caster is not required to be set below the first roll caster.

A new technique of thermal compensation resistance spot welding was used to weld light metal such as aluminum alloy sheet and magnesium alloy. The effects of welding parameters on the tensile shear strength of joint and nugget diameter were investigated. The tensile shear load and nugget of the joint increased with the increasing of welding time, whereas that of the joint decreased with the increasing of electrode force. The joint with the maximum tensile shear load of approximately 5 kN was obtained at the condition of 12 kA and 11 kA welding current for aluminum alloy and magnesium alloy, respectively. The results reveal that the thermal compensation resistance spot welding is a feasible method to weld aluminum alloy and magnesium alloy..

Friction stir spot welding-FSSW has been suggested as effectual process to welding difficult materials such as dissimilar materials and thin sheet of metal alloys. In this study, using dissimilar materials were welded carbon steel-1006 on upper plate and aluminum alloy AA2024-T3 on lower plate. Macrostructure, micro-structural analysis and mechanical properties of the joints are done. The effect of penetration depth, dwell time and spindle speed on tensile shear load are investigated with invariable of other parameter during welding process. The maximum tensile shear load (3.31KN) was occurred when using 0.4mm of penetration depth, 10 sec of dwell time and 1400 rpm of spindle speed. Also, two type of failure shape was observed interfacial fracture of carbon steel sheet and pull-out fracture of AA2024-T3 sheet.

This chapter examines the post-war efforts of European socialists to reconstitute the Socialist International. Initial efforts to cooperate culminated in an international socialist conference in Berne in February 1919 at which socialists from the two wartime camps met for the first time. In the end, however, it would take four years to reconstitute the International with the creation of the Labour and Socialist International (LSI) in 1923. That it took so long to do so is a testimony to the impact of the Great War and to the Bolshevik revolution. Together, these two seismic events compelled socialists to reconsider the meaning and purpose of socialism. The search for answers sparked prolonged debates between and within the major parties, profoundly reconfiguring the pre-war world of European socialism. One prominent stake in this lengthy process, moreover, was the nature of socialist internationalism—both its content and its functioning.

The present research aims to establish the impact that the current crisis situation the planet is facing, namely the COVID-19 pandemic, has had so far on the Romanian labor force market. In this context, given the lack of information and information regarding this pandemic and its effects, the administration of a questionnaire among the population was considered to identify the research results. The method of semantic differential and the method of ordering the ranks were used for the interpretation of the results. With the help of this questionnaire, it will be possible to answer the question of the research in this study: What are the main effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Romanian labor market? The main results showed that the COVID-19 pandemic affected the Romanian workforce; the respondents of the applied questionnaire claimed that they obtained better results and maintained a similar income, but the health crisis also influenced the mentality of employees, with respondents stating that in the event of changing jobs, they would consider it very important for the new employer to ensure the conditions for preventing and combating COVID-19, as well as complex health insurance. However, analyzing at the macroeconomic level, it was found that the COVID-19 pandemic induced an increase in the number of unemployed people in the Romanian labor market.

ABSTRACT We investigate the effects of auditor-wrongdoer reputations for performance and likeability on fellow auditors' intentions to take action in response to a questionable audit act. We also use this context to explore auditor selection of reporting outlets, when they do choose to take action. In an experiment with 181 auditors, main effects suggest that likeability reputation is a significant determinant of intention to take action, while performance reputation is marginally significant. As expected, interaction results indicate that auditors have the greatest intention to take action against less likeable, poor performers. Contrary to expectations, intention to take action against a more likeable, good performer is no lower than the mixed conditions. Thus, the influence of the two dimensions of reputation is complex. Additionally, we find auditors are more likely to whistle-blow internally than externally, and through non-anonymous outlets than anonymous outlets. Our contributions include exploring the impact of reputation on the actions of third parties, and advancing prior literature by considering the influence of wrongdoer attributes on reporting decisions and auditors' reporting channel preferences.
