The objective of this study was to investigate the effects of cryo-treatment on the microstructure, corrosion behavior, and mechanical properties of Ti before and after laser welding. The microstructure was studied by optical microscopy. It was found that the grain size for Ti became smaller after cryo-treatment. Cryo-treatment could also refine and stabilize the crystal lattice structure and d...

For hot extrusions of magnesium alloy sheets, Dissimilar AZ80 and AZ31 were used, in which AZ80 was placed on advancing side and AZ31 on retreating side, using friction stir butt welding with different process parameters. Some defect-free welded joints with good weld surfaces could be obtained with some suitable welding conditions. The maximum tensile strength of welded joint which is 225.5 MPa...

Steel-tube grouting technology has been widely applied in the slope control engineering. While anti-sliding performances of different connection modes grouted steel tubes still needs further investigation. In this paper, a large-scale model test was used to study influence three types pile connections, namely whole without connection, with reinforcement welded and casing on performance multi-st...
