In this work, the dissimilar joint of AA7003-T4 and 6060-T4 alloy has been produced by friction stir welding (FSW). The microstructure was examined by optical microscope (OM), electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the mechanical properties of the joint were investigated. It is demonstrated that sound dissimilar joint can be produced through FSW....

The dissimilar joint between aluminum/titanium alloys (Al 6082 and Ti G2) were successfully achieved by CO2 laser welding with a single pass and without filler material using the overlap joint design. Laser welding parameters ranges combinations were experimentally determined using Taguchi approach with the objective of producing welded joint with acceptable welding profile and high quality of ...

The reliability of welded structure can be evaluated through welding residual stress analysis and fatigue strength assessment. In this study, welding residual stresses of multi-pass dissimilar material welded joint between alloy 617 and 12Cr steel were analyzed numerically and experimentally. Fatigue strength was then assessed in the air. Based on results of welding residual stress analysis and...

Present study focuses on the micro-structural and mechanical behavior effect of friction time for similar (AISI 316-AISI 316 and AISI 304-AISI 304) and dissimilar (AISI 304-AISI 316) joint during continuous drive friction welding. The welding carried out with different friction time: 6.5, 8.5 and 10 s while kept all other conditions constant. The effect of that time on the strength, structural ...

The most effective method to reduce CO2 gas emission from the steam power plant is to improve its performance by elevating the steam temperature to more than 700 ◦C. For this, it is necessary to develop applicable materials at high temperatures. Ni-based Alloy 617 and 12Cr steel are used in steam power plants, due to their remarkable mechanical properties, high corrosion resistance, and creep s...
