Authors

Abstract:

CoHErrelation between weldability and improvement in properties is a key issue in materials science research. The objective of this work is to optimize the process parameters viz., aging temperature, aging time, solutionizing time, to enhance the hardness of Al6061 alloy. Hence, the present paper deals with hardness study of Tungsten Inert Gas welded 6061 aluminium alloy after age hardening under three different aging temperatures, aging time and solutionizing time using Taguchi’s L9 Orthogonal array. Finally, a second order model has been generated for hardness using Response Surface Methodology with 20 runs for full design. The predicted and experimental results are in good agreement.

assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...

Investigation of the Fatigue Strength of the Welded Joints Treated by Tig Dressing

The fatigue fracture of structural details subjected to cyclic loads mostly occurs at a critical cross section with stress concentration. The welded joint is particularly dangerous location because of sinergetic harmful effects of stress concentration, tensile residual stresses, deffects, microstructural heterogeneity. Because of these reasons many methods for improving the fatigue resistance o...

Corrosion behaviour of friction stir welded AZ61A magnesium alloy welds immersed in NaCl solutions

The extruded AZ61A magnesium alloy plates of 6 mm thickness were butt welded using friction stir welding (FSW) process. The corrosion behavior of the welds was evaluated by conducting immersion test in NaCl solution at different pH value, immersion time and chloride ion concentrations. An empirical relationship was established incorporating pH value, immersion time and chloride ion concentratio...
