Ultrasonic complex vibration welding of same and different metal specimens and structures of the welded area are studied using several complex vibration welding systems, scanning and transmission electron microscopes (SEM and TEM). Ultrasonic welding can weld various metal directly using vibration and static clamping pressure. The welding area is limited very narrow layer and can weld different...

Welding fume contains various metals and pulmonary effects from their inhalation are largely unknown. We have studied the effects of exposure to welding fume in sheep. The animals were exposed to either a bolus dose of welding fume solution or to five weeks daily exposure. Lung physiology parameters were studied and biopsies taken. Magnetopneumography was used to register the longterm exposure....

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...

friction welding is widely used in various industries. in friction welding, heat is generated by conversion of mechanical energy into thermal energy at the interface the work pieces during pin rotation under pressure. a three-dimensional thermo mechanical simulation of friction stir welding (fsw) processes is carried out for aluminium alloys of 6061and 7050 where the simulation results are comp...

in this study, the effect of temperature on the diffusion welding of az31 magnesium alloy and 7075 aluminum was discussed. diffusion welding temperature was the most important parameter since all mechanisms are sensitive to temperature in diffusion welding method. intrusive contacts between the two alloys at temperatures of 430, and 440 °c 450 and took 60 min. in all tests constant pressure and...

This chapter deals with the problems occur in the welding under the consideration of many causes of defects such as cracking, distortion, porosity, inclusion and undercutting. Welding is very useful for every industry. It is used as a fabrication and sculptural that joins the two parts of materials, generally metals or thermoplastic, through a restricted amalgamation from a suitable combination...

friction-stir welding process is a novel method of solid state welding, which produces heat due to friction between the pin, the shoulder and the workpiece. this heat causes a paste area. shoulder pressure and pin spin cause edges integration and lead to welding. in this study, firstly, the feasibility of welding of steel sheet (en10130) with a thickness of 1.5mm has been tested by 58 experimen...

The Resistance Spot Welding (RSW) process requires simultaneous application of high electrical current and appropriate pressure over short periods in order to keep the molten material inside the weld zone. Values of these parameters vary in function of the characteristics of the materials to be welded. The application of the electrical current is by means of two copper electrodes brought in con...

Submerged arc welding is used widely in oil and gas industry construction for storage tanks, pressure vessels, shipbuilding and etc. One of the processes of submerged arc welding is back gouging operations. This paper presents a way to remove the back gouging operation from the submerged arc welding process. For this purpose, effects of submerged arc welding parameters onA516-70steel sample wer...
