A Numerical Approach for the Efficient Concept Design of Laser-Based Hybrid Joints

Laser-based plastic–metal joints have high potential to enable cost-efficient lightweight structures in multi-material design. By an appropriate load-optimized positioning of the microstructure on the joining zone, cost- and strength-optimized joints can be realized. However, there are no design met...
