Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) or Tungsten inert gas welding (TIG) is one of the widely used techniques for joining ferrous and non-ferrous metal.Gas tungsten arc welding process,consist of non-consumable tungsten electrode which is used to provide the arc for welding. During the welding cycle a shield of inert gas expels the air from the welding area and prevents oxidation of the electrode, w...

Tungsten inert gas (TIG) is currently one of the most widely applied welding technologies. However, arc energy divergence and high heat input conventional TIG can lead to defects in heat-input-sensitive alloys (such as Inconel 718). Introducing a fast-frequency pulsed current (≥20 kHz) creates process named tungsten (FFP-TIG). The behavior FFP-TIG has advantages over terms contraction, pressure...

This paper summarizes fatigue test on high strength steel specimens in the as-welded condition and specimens treated by ultrasonic impact treatment, TIG dressing and a combination of TIG dressing and ultrasonic impact treatment. Single lap joint specimens in 6 mm aluminium plate material were tested in the as-welded, hammer peened, needle peened and ground condition. Aluminium joints with longi...

Cell sheet engineering is attracting attention from investigators in various fields, from basic research scientists to clinicians focused on regenerative medicine. However, hepatocytes have a limited proliferation potential in vitro, and it generally takes a several days to form a sheet morphology and multi-layered sheets. We herein report our rapid and efficient technique for generating multi-...

In this experimental work, Manganese oxide (MnO2), Zinc oxide (ZnO), Iron oxide (Fe2O3) and Magnesium chloride (MgCl2) were used as activating flux to investigate the effects for SS 304 in tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding. Ultimate tensile strength, percentage elongation, Penetration depth and width were studied of material SS 304. The experimental results indicated that the MnO2 and Fe2O3 flux...

A plasma arc welding (PAW)-tungsten inert gas (TIG) hybrid welding process is proposed to weld pure nickel. In PAW-TIG welding, the arc of the PAW was first to be ignited, then TIG was ignited, while in PAW welding, only the PAW arc was launched. This paper investigated the effect of different welding processes on electrochemical and corrosion performance of between a pure nickel joint and a ba...

Repair welding is not used enough in the industry 1 . One of the reasons for this lies in the insufficient and unrealiable knowledge in many segments of this area. A very important part is having appropriate knowledge of metallurgical processes in heating of the base material 2-4 . Unsuitable heating deteriorates the microstructure as it reduces toughness and fracture behaviour of the weld 5 . ...
