Electromagnetic field-assisted laser welding of NiTi to stainless steel: Towards a lightweight, high-strength joint with preserved properties
2023, Journal of Materials Processing TechnologyRole of ultra-fine intermetallic particles and martensite in strengthening of AISI 321/Cu/Ti laser welded joint
2022, Materials CharacterizationCitation Excerpt :The problem of welding of dissimilar materials has lately been fairly widely discussed in the scientific literature [1–5].
Atomic scale characterization of a pure Al – galvanized steel spot magnetic pulse joint interface
2019, Materials CharacterizationCitation Excerpt :However joining aluminum with galvanized steel remains a challenge since these materials are characterized by different melting points, thermal conductivities, coefficients of thermal expansion, mechanical properties and flow laws [1–3]. In addition, the high chemical affinity between Al and Fe [4] may lead to the precipitation of brittle intermetallic compounds (IMCs) [1–2] at the joint interface. Diffusion is all the more favored that joining proceeds at the liquid state in the case of welding or brazing.
Wetting and solidification characteristics of aluminium on zinc coated steel in laser welding and brazing
2016, Journal of Materials Processing TechnologyCitation Excerpt :Kreimeyer (2007) showed that for mechanical joint properties, that meet industrial requirements, wetting length is also a crucial factor. Moeller and Thomy (2013) showed that good quality seams of aluminium and steel can be easily accomplished using laser and laser-hybrid welding and brazing processes. When looking at the basic physical properties of liquids spreading on solid surfaces described by the relation of surface tensions according to Young’s formula, a wetting process between liquid aluminium and solid steel should be possible.
