20.500.12556/RUL-180344 Review of advanced resistance welding technologies and control methods for joining state-of-the-art materials in lightweight and electric vehicle manufacturing Resistance spot welding (RSW) remains a fundamental joining process in modern industrial manufacturing, particularly in the automotive sector. Ensuring consistent weld quality is critical, prompting the development and integration of various monitoring and control systems. This paper reviews the theoretical foundations of RSW and explores diverse control strategies from a control systems perspective. A comprehensive overview of contemporary quality assurance methods—including those leveraging artificial intelligence and machine vision—is provided. The paper also examines the evolving role of RSW in lightweight automotive design and the production of electric vehicles, where diverse materials and dissimilar metal combinations are increasingly common. To address the challenges of welding these advanced materials, state-of-the-art welding and joining technologies are discussed in detail. artificial intelligence control systems machine vision resistance spot welding advanced joining technologies umetna inteligenca sistemi krmiljenja strojno učenje uporovno točkovno varjenje napredne tehnologije spajanja materialov true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2026-03-06 10:09:43 2026-03-06 10:09:46 2026-03-07 04:40:08 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 23-32 no. 1 Vol. 50 2025 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 621.791.763:004.85 2620-0325 10.24867/ATM-2025-1-004 270725891 Podrzaj,_Klobcar._Review_of_advanced....pdf Podrzaj,_Klobcar._Review_of_advanced....pdf 1 C18FD420FB0B289560A79E795439A1F5 1e338510fe58326dbb985018529f489bd66d7e30814a89456e46ff54a67a824d f4933ff2-193b-11f1-a1ba-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=229642 https://atm-journal.uns.ac.rs/index.php/atm/article/view/ATM-2025-1-004 1 d67feb08-193b-11f1-a1ba-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=229640 Fakulteta za strojništvo 0 0 0
