Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research was to develop methods for improving welded joints in high-strength aluminum alloys. Details of the work done during the period March 1, 1951, to March 31, 1952, on the analysis of wrought aluminum alloys for hydrogen are presented. A summary of the work done during the same period on modified aluminum-magnesium filler metals, welding of ballistic test specimens, and ultrasonic vibration of weld metal is also presented. A method of determining the hydrogen content of wrought aluminum alloys with a precision of + or 1 0.1 ml per 100 grams was developed. The external and internal hydrogen contents of samples of six commercial alloys were determined. In general, the amount of internal hydrogen was much less than that of the external hydrogen.

This book was released on 1963 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the second phase of an investigation to improve welds in high strength aluminum alloys such as 7075 and 7178. Direct current, straight polarity, helium shielded tungsten arc automatic welding was preferred for most consistent results, although highest individual weld strengths were achieved with carefully controlled consumable electrode short arc technique. High travel speeds, with TIG welding, decreased weld strength because of small hot-short cracks. Cold working of welds before aging often caused cracks and had no beneficial effect on strength. Locally heat treating welds with a low power arc before aging increased ductility in both tensile and bulge tests. Strength was about equivalent to no heated welds. Base metal properties determined after short time exposure to high temperatures were used to predict joint designs for local heat treatments.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memorandum describes the fusion-welding characteristics, mechanical properties, and stress-corrosion behavior of high-strength, weldable aluminum alloys. These are defined as alloys in which sound welds can be produced and in which at least 50 and 70 percent of the maximum base-metal strength can be retained in the as-welded and post-weld-treated conditions, respectively. Careful selection of joining method and filler metals as well as close control of joining-process parameters is necessary to produce high-strength aluminum weldments. Highest strengths and weld-joint efficiencies in high-strength weldable alloys are achieved with the use of postweld aging and/or mechanical treatments. The best combination of highest strengths and good welding characteristics is found in the 2000 and 7000 alloy series. As compared with the 2000 and 5000 alloy series, the 7000 alloy as a class suffer three major property disadvantages: (1) their tendency to be notch sensitive, (2) their tendency to exhibit low toughness at low temperatures, and (3) their much greater susceptibility to stress-corrosion cracking. Nonetheless, several relatively new 7000 series alloys have been developed which show reasonably good notch toughness to -423 F and which are considered competitive with the 2219 and 2014 alloys for cryogenic applications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today is an era of metals including Aluminum alloys owing to a fundamental paradigm shift in research objectives. In addition to superior performance and lightweight criteria that are used to define the innovations of yore, scientists today are compelled to take into consideration the environment-friendliness of the new and novel materials being developed due to the concerns of maintaining a sustainable and safe existence. The solid-state Friction stir welding process has immense potential in the areas of automobiles, aerospace and construction industries due to its overwhelming advantages over the conventional fusion welding process of aluminum alloys. The thesis presents an experimental investigation of friction stir welding of dissimilar aluminum alloys AA7075T651 and AA6082T651. Mathematical modeling equations are developed to predict the tensile strength, impact strength, elongation, and micro-hardness of the dissimilar FSW joints AA7075T651 and AA6082T651. The process parameters are optimized for maximum tensile strength and hardness values. Post weld heat treatment is conducted and the metallurgical properties of the FS welded AA7075T651 and AA6082T651 are presented for different combinations of tool rotational speeds. Aluminum and its alloys are widely used in nonferrous alloys for many industrial applications. Aluminum exhibits a combination of an excellent mechanical strength with lightweight and thus it is steadily replacing steel in industrial applications where the strength to weight ratio plays a significant role. In conventional welding, the joining of aluminum is mainly associated with a high coefficient of thermal expansion, solidification shrinkage and dissolution of harmful gases in the molten metal during welding. The weld joints are also associated with segregation of secondary alloys and porosities which are detrimental to the joint qualities. Friction Stir Welding (FSW) and Friction Welding (FW) are the most popular emerging solid welding techniques in aircraft and shipbuilding industries. FSW is mainly used for the joining of metal plates and FW is mainly used for the joining of rods. Both techniques are suitable for high strength material having less weight. These techniques are environmentally friendly and easy to execute. Hence, the study of these techniques can contribute much to the field of green technology. This research work is dealt with the experimental and numerical investigations on FSW and FW of aluminum alloys.

Book excerpt: Friction Stir Welding (FSW) is known to result in a complex microstructural development, with features that remain unexplained, such as: the formation of the onion rings structure. Moreover, various microstructural factors have been suggested to control the strength in Al-Mg AA5xxx welds, without identifying their relative contribution. Furthermore, the influence of the basemetal microstructural parameters (e.g. grains, intermetallic particles, stored energy) on the microstructure-property development has not been previously investigated. These issues are addressed in the present study.

Download or read book Feasibility Investigation of Laser Welding Aluminum Alloy 7075 T6 Through the Use of a 300 W Single Mode Ytterbium Fiber Optic Laser written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Aluminum alloys are important structural materials because of their high strength to weight ratio. Unfortunately, due to their high reflectivity and complexity in heat treatment, aluminum alloys are some of the hardest metals to be laser welded successfully and very high laser power is usually required. In this study, the feasibility of using a 300 W, Single-Mode, Ytterbium Fiber Optic Laser for aluminum welding is investigated. The objective is to explore an application area with low power and low welding speed. As the fiber laser offers much better beam quality (M2 less than 1.05), the results show that, with proper control of welding parameters, the success of aluminum welding can be achieved at considerably low laser power with minimal formation of typical welding defects (porosity, cracking etc.). However, the focusing becomes highly critical as exceeding a certain power density can lead to defects such as blowholes and porosity. The deepest penetration achieved was just over 1 mm at 300W and 2 mm/sec. Other welding processes achieve about three to four times as much penetration at the expense of seven times more power. Further development of this process can lead to a more efficient use of power.
