Analysis on mechanical properties of gas tungsten arc welded dissimilar aluminium alloy (Al2024 & Al6063)

In this project dissimilar aluminium alloys (Al2024 & Al6063) are welded using tungsten inert gas welding in the butt joint with single V edge preparation. The welding is carried out with modifying three set of parameters such as current, gas flow rate and root gap. Welded materials is then subjected to various mechanical behaviour analyses such as tensile strength, hardness, corrosion test and microstructure analyze also carried out using scanning electron microscope for metallurgical study purpose. The main aim is to analyze how welding process parameters changes affect the mechanical behaviour of the aluminium alloys. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
