This paper presents a multi-objective optimization method for optimizing the process parameters during friction welding of dissimilar metals. The proposed method combines the response surface methodology (RSM) with an a genetic algorithm (GA) method. Ultimate tensile strength (UTS), flash diameter and the heat affected zone (HAZ) width of friction welded nodular cast iron with low carbon steel joints were investigated considering the following process parameters: friction pressure (FP), friction time (FT) and upsetting pressure (UP). Mathematical models were developed and the responses were adequately predicted. Direct and interaction effects of process parameters on responses were studied by plotting graphs. In the case of UTS, FT has high significance followed by: FP and UP. Friction time has high significance on the flash diameter of nodular cast iron followed by UP and FP. However in the case of the low carbon steel flash diameter, UP has high significance followed by FT and FP. In the case of the HAZ width for nodular cast iron and low carbon steel side, friction time has high significance followed by UP and FT. Multiobjective optimization for maximizing the tensile strength and minimizing the flash diameter and the HAZ width was carried out using mathematical model.

This study is an approach to investigate the environmental impact of screw manufacturing and to choose suitable material for selected screw-making processes for the best performance with minimum environmental impact. The parameters involved were types of material and screw-making process using the environmental data available in Asia region. The two different manufacturing approaches being evaluated were machining and forging. The types of material considered were low carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium alloy and aluminium alloy. As for machining process, the materials being considered in screw manufacturing were low carbon steel, stainless steel, titanium alloy, aluminium alloy, magnesium alloy and cast iron. The information of environmental impact are generated by SolidWorks. Sustainability tool was used in the formation of pair-wise comparison matrices for Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). Then, the ranking of global priorities had enabled the determination of appropriate material to be used for those selected screw manufacturing process. As a result, aluminium alloy was found to give minimum environmental impact for forging process whereas cast iron was found to excel in machining process. At the same time, titanium alloy was not suggested to be used in either process.

A cast iron/low carbon steel sandwich-structured bimetal fabricated through composite casting, followed by hot rolling and hot compression (40% reduction) in a vacuum, and water quenched using Gleeble 3500 thermomechanical simulator. The microstructure of a predominantly martensitic structure is transferred to a matrix with an amount of austenite. The measured results show that the macro-hardness is significantly lower due to the evolution of matrix. A considerable amount of secondary carbides were precipitated from the matrix. This study also shows that a significant difference in the value of coefficient of friction (COF) at the end when hot rolling (HR) was tested under three sets of sliding wear conditions, while those for hot rolling and heat treatment (HT) tends to be merged. An increased wear resistance of interfacial zone is expectable.
