Enhancement in Mechanical Properties of Vibratory Welded Joints: an Overview

This paper consolidated the improvements in mechanical properties from the past literature available using Vibratory welding technique. Vibratory welding is a promising method in eliminating the disadvantages experienced by the traditional welding like residual stress due to the electrical energy input which induces vibrations by varying the input parameters voltage, current, amplitude and frequency. It is also a better alternative to the heat treatments available to increase the strength, with no special tools and less cost during time of welding itself. The very advantages of vibratory welding are that it gives effective penetration of the molten metal to each corner of the joint that is chosen.
