SOLSTA - Solid-state joining methods for electric vehicles

To this end, automotive manufacturers can instead benefit from using solid-state joining methods. However, many solid-state joining methods exist, and choosing the most appropriate method for a given application is not readily apparent for automotive manufacturers. For the automotive industry to be able to understand the advantages and disadvantages associated with the many solid state joining techniques available, this project will perform a comprehensive exploration in which the existing standards and requirements dealing with solid-state joining methods are surveyed. Then, a feasibility study with possibilities and limitations for each process supported by observations from a smaller experimental investigation will be produced.
