Mahadzir Ishak is a senior lecturer at Faculty of Mechanical Engineering and fellow researcher of Automotive Excellent Centre, University Malaysia Pahang. His research interests are in laser application on manufacturing processes, joining & welding, heat treatment, casting and light alloys material.
Joining and welding are two of the most important processes in manufacturing. These technologies have vastly improved and are now extensively used in numerous industries. This book covers a wide range of topics, from arc welding (GMAW and GTAW), FSW, laser and hybrid welding, and magnetic pulse welding on metal joining to the application of joining technologies for textile products. The analysis of temperature and phase transformation is also incorporated. This book also discusses the issue of dissimilar joint between metal and ceramic, as well as the technology of diffusion bonding.
