A special form of laser spot welding is introduced to overlap dissimilar welding of titanium (G2) to 3105-O aluminum alloy. A welding tactile seam tracking design using following pulses that result to a circular seam leads to spot like shape laser welding. This technique was conducted to joint overlapped grad 2 Titanium alloy (Ti G2) to 3105-O Al alloy, with 1, and 0.5 mm thicknesses respective...

In this paper a novel laser impact spot welding (LISW) method is described, in which a hump was formed on the flyer plate on the intended welding spot location by local pre-forming. When the flyer and base plates were placed together to perform welding, the two plates kept in contact over their entire surfaces except at the hump, where a local air gap was enough to guarantee the impact velocity...

The high strength carbon steels such as API X65 is widely used to build the pipelines. In this study, the corrosion behavior welds region of the gas pipeline was studied. For this purpose, Shield Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) was used to evaluate the proposed method. The welding processes were performed with E6010, E6013, and ER70S-6 electrodes as filler metal and welding carried out in 3 passes by ...

–Friction stir welding is a solid state welding technology used for welding low melting point metals, such as Al, Mg and its alloys. Later welding was conducted on dissimilar metals which also produced a better defect free joint. Tool design and welding parameters contributes a major role for producing a better weld. Material flow and friction heat are the factors that the internal factor for t...

gas tungsten arc welding is a popular process in those applications requiring a high degree of quality andaccuracy. however, this process has a big disadvantage against the substantially high productivity weldingprocedures. hence, many efforts have been made to improve its productivity. one of these efforts is the use of activating flux (a-tig welding). in this study, the performance of a-tig w...

This study investigated the effects of the hot isostatic pressing process on the crack healing, microstructure, and mechanical properties of the laser repair-welded CM247LC precipitation-hardened superalloy. To ensure the strength of the repair-welded area, this study used the direct re-melting approach, and simulated the repair welding with the filler addition, which has a chemical composition...

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...
