Mechanism of Fume Reduction in Welding Al-Mg Alloys Using AC Pulsed MIG Process

Reduction of Biomechanical and Welding Fume Exposures in Stud Welding.

The welding of shear stud connectors to structural steel in construction requires a prolonged stooped posture that exposes ironworkers to biomechanical and welding fume hazards. In this study, biomechanical and welding fume exposures during stud welding using conventional methods were compared to exposures associated with use of a prototype system that allowed participants to weld from an uprig...

EXPERIMENTALl ANALYSIS OF PARTITION COEFFICIENT IN Al-Mg ALLOYS

Because the partition coefficient is one of the most important parameters affecting microsegregation, the aim of this research is to experimentally analyse the partition coefficient in Al-Mg alloys. In order to experimentally measure the partition coefficient, a series of quenching experiments during solidification were carried out. For this purpose binary Al-Mg alloys containing 6.7 and 10.2 w...

Solidification Behavior of Al-Mg Aluminum Alloy Using Double-Sided Arc Welding Process

As popular aluminum alloys, the 5xxx Al-Mg series, such as 5050 and 5052, etc., are widely used in applications such as automobile, pressure vessels, armor plate, and components for marine and cryogenic service. In this, as in all non-heat-treatable aluminum alloys, the weld metal zone is considered to be the weakest part of the joint and is the location of failure when the joint is loaded in t...

Precipitation Hardening of Al–Si–Mg Alloys

Melt Protection of Mg-Al Based Alloys

This paper reports the current status of Mg melt protection in view to identify near-future challenges, but also opportunities, for Mg melt protection of Mg-Al based alloys. The goal is to design and manufacture sustainable Mg alloys for resource efficiency, recycling and minimising waste. Among alternative cover gas technologies for Mg melt protection other than SF6: commercially available tec...
