Resistance welding of glass fiber reinforced PET: Effect of weld pressure and heating element geometry

The objective of this paper is to present an investigation of resistance welded thermoplastic joints using stainless steel wire mesh and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) with unidirectional E-glass fiber reinforcement. Five weld pressures and six heating element types were investigated to achieve hi...
