Magnetic Pulse Welding of Two Dissimilar Materials with Various Combinations Adopted in Nuclear Applications

Control of Welding Residual Stress for Dissimilar Laser Welded Materials

The most common problem of welding dissimilar metals (DMWs) with respect to residual stresses is the differences in the coefficient of thermal expansion and heat conductivity of the two welded metals. In the present work, a CO2 continuous laser welding process was successfully applied and optimized for joining a dissimilar AISI 316 stainless steel and low carbon steel plates. The Taguchi approa...

Friction Stir Welding of Dissimilar Materials: An Overview

Process Parameter Optimization in Resistance Spot Welding of Dissimilar Thickness Materials

Resistance spot welding (RSW) has been used widely to join sheet metals. It has been a challenge to get required weld quality in spot welding of dissimilar thickness materials. Weld parameters are not generally available in standards for thickness beyond 4mm. This paper presents the welding process design and parameter optimization of RSW used in joining of low carbon steel sheet of thickness 0...

Femtosecond fiber laser welding of dissimilar metals.

In this paper, welding of dissimilar metals was demonstrated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, by using a high-energy high-repetition-rate femtosecond fiber laser. Metallurgical and mechanical properties were investigated and analyzed under various processing parameters (pulse energy, repetition rate, and welding speed). Results showed that the formation of intermetallic brittle...

Laser welding of dissimilar aluminium alloys with filler material

Laser welding of dissimilar aluminium alloys with filler material Luís Filipe Amaro Pinto Instituto Superior Técnico – Technical University of Lisbon – Portugal September 2008 Abstract The aluminium alloys are materials with great potential because of its high strength and low weight. However, the welding of dissimilar aluminium alloys is difficult in autogeneous welding, due to these alloys ar...
