A literature review of studies and researches has been attempted in the field of dissimilar metal welding. Dissimilar metal welds have numerous industrial applications in area of thermal power generation, chemical, petrochemical, automobile, aerospace industries and nuclear plants etc. The purpose of this paper is to review: (a) Dissimilar metal welds, their Metallurgical and Mechanical aspects...

In this paper, welding of dissimilar metals was demonstrated for the first time, to the best of our knowledge, by using a high-energy high-repetition-rate femtosecond fiber laser. Metallurgical and mechanical properties were investigated and analyzed under various processing parameters (pulse energy, repetition rate, and welding speed). Results showed that the formation of intermetallic brittle...

In this paper, dissimilar resistance spot welding of AISI 1075 eutectoid steel to AISI 201 stainless steel is investigated experimentally. For this purpose, the experiments are designed using response surface methodology and based on four-factor, five-level central composite design. The effects of process parameters such as welding current, welding time, cooling time and electrode force are inv...

Titanium alloy TC1 and Aluminum alloy LF6 were butt jointed and lap jointed by friction stir welding (FSW), and the influence of process parameters on formation of weld surface, cross-section morphology and strength were studied. The results show that, Titanium and Aluminum dissimilar alloy is difficult to be butt joined by FSW, and some defects such as cracks and grooves are easy to occur. Whe...

In ultrasonic welding, high frequency vibrations are combined with pressure to join two materials together quickly and securely. Ultrasonic welding can join dissimilar metals in a split second, ultrasonic welding eases problematic assembly and this cost effective technique may be key to mass producing fuel efficient. In this work effect of various parameters on weld strength have been studied. ...

in the present study, the corrosion behavior of aisi 347 austenitic stainless steel to astm a335 low alloysteel dissimilar joint was investigated. for this purpose, two filler metals, er309l and ernicr-3, were selected to be used during the gas tungsten arc welding process. to investigate the corrosion behavior of the joints after welding, the specimens were tested in 3.5% sodium chloride solut...

Electron beam butt welding of stainless steel (SS 304) and electrolytically tough pitched (ETP) copper plates was carried out according to central composite design of experiments. Three input parameters, namely accelerating voltage, beam current and weld speed were considered in the butt welding experiments of dissimilar metals. The weld-bead parameters, such as bead width and depth of penetrat...

The purpose of this work was to join and assess the development of solid state joints of dissimilar material AA6082 aluminum alloy and AISI 304 stainless steel, via continuous drive friction welding process, which combines the heat generated from friction between two surfaces and plastic deformation. Tests were conducted with different welding process parameters. The results were analyzed by me...
