These joints are widely used in fields ranging from electronics and biomedical devices to aerospace and automotive industries. However, joining ceramics and metals is challenging due to differences in atomic bonding and thermal expansion properties. Traditional methods, such as brazing, friction welding, and fusion welding, often induce thermal stresses and residual strain, leading to defects like cracks and intermetallic formation at the joint interface. Magnetic Pulse Crimping (MPC) is an environmentally friendly, quick, and cold solid-state material joining process that does not create heat affected zones and mitigates these issues. This study uses the MPC process to investigate the feasibility of joining an AA 1050 aluminum alloy tube with an alumina ceramic rod. The experiments were performed at various discharge energies using an Archimedean spiral coil and a step taper field shaper to evaluate the joint's strength and metal-ceramic interface behavior. Non-sinusoidal waviness patterns have been observed at the metal-ceramic joint interface. The numerical analysis used the LS DYNA EM module to measure the current density, magnetic field, Von Mises stresses, and impact velocity on the flyer tube. The manuscript contributes to the understanding of ceramic-metal joining under electromagnetic forming conditions.enMagnetic Pulse CrimpingCeramic-metal jointsAluminaAA 1050Archimedean spiral coil620670ConferencePaperCrimpenAluminiumrohrKeramik-Metall-VerbundMachbarkeitAluminiumoxideAluminiumlegierung
