To assemble parts, welding is commonly employed. However, welding distortion in large thin-plate panel structure is usually cased by buckling due to the residual stress. In this study, an elastic finite element method for predicting the welding distortion of three-dimensional thin-plate structures with considering welding sequence was proposed. In this method, the inherent strain was employed to model the local shrinkage due to welding itself, and the interface element was introduced to simulate the assembly process. The proposed method was applied to study the influence of welding sequence on the buckling distortion of the large thin-plate panel structure during assembly.展开更多

Using the selected welding parameters, excellent surface appearance forms, but the interface macrograph for each lap joint cross-section is different. With the increase of welding speed or the decrease of tool rotation rate, the amount of Ti alloy particles stirred into the stir zone by the force of tool pin decreases continuously. Moreover, the failure loads of the lap joints also decrease with increasing welding speed and the largest value is achieved at welding speed of 60 mm/min and tool rotation rate of 1500 r/min, where the interracial zone can be divided into 3 kinds of layers. The microhardness of the lap joint shows an uneven distribution and the maximum hardness of HV 502 is found in the middle of the stir zone.展开更多

The optimal welding interface can be obtained with the least explosive charge by theoretical analysis and interface test. The bonding energy can be acknowledged as the ＂action＂ in explosive welding. To minimize the bonding energy, these rules must be followed such as the lower limit of explosive charge, the upper limit of span and the explosive of critical explosion velocity. The principle of least-action is achieved in the course of explosive welding, and the interface will be optimum.展开更多

Now the dissimilar metal joints are especially popular in defense, aerospace, automobile, bio-medical,refinery and nuclear engineerings. In friction welding, some special alloys with dual phase are not joined successfully due to poor bonding strength. The alloy surfaces after bonding also have metallurgical changes in the line of interfacing. The reported research work in this area is scanty. Although the sound weld zone of direct bonding between Tie6Ale4 V and SS304 L was obtained though many trials, the joint was not successful. In this paper, the friction welding characteristics between Tie6Ale4 V and SS304 L into which pure oxygen free copper(OFC) was introduced as interlayer were investigated. Boxe Behnken design was used to minimize the number of experiments to be performed. The weld joint was analyzed for its mechanical strength. The highest tensile strength between Tie6Ale4 V and SS304 L between which pure copper was used as insert metal was acquired. Micro-structural analysis and elemental analysis were carried out by EDS, and the formation of intermetallic compound at the interface was identified by XRD analysis.展开更多

Sound joints were successfully achieved by using a Cu-Ni alloy as filler material. According to X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis results three transitional layers at the weld/Ti3Al interface were verified as follows： Ti2AlNb phase dissolved with Cu and Ni; Al（Cu,Ni）2Ti, （Cu,Ni）2Ti and （Nb, Ti） solid solution; Cu-rich phase and a complex multi-element phase. The In718/weld interface is characterized by solid solutions of Ni, Cu, Cr, Fe and Nb. The average tensile strength of the as-welded joints at room temperature is 163 MPa, and after a post-weld heat treatment it is increased slightly to 177 MPa. The fracture occurred at the surfacial layer of the joined Ti3Al base alloy, indicating that the Ti2AINb layer dissolved with Cu and Ni is the weak link of the Ti3Al/In718 joint.展开更多

In a cladding plate, it is for the first time to find that the form of interface presents regular distribution.(2) Although the interface has the features of melt, diffusion and pressure welding in the mean time, the seam and 'hole' brought by the melt weaken the bonding strength of interface greatly, and the effect of melt on interface must be eliminated in explosive welding, so explosive welding is not a melt weld. The diffusion welding is a kind of form of pressure welding, and the diffusion is not the reason of the bonding of interface but the result of interface high pressure. So the diffusion welding cannot also explain the bonding mechanism of it. The experiment and theory make clear that explosive welding is a special pressure one.(3) To get good interface of no melt, explosive charge must be selected on the low limit of welding windows. In explosive welding, the drive plate should be treated as the viscous and plastoelastic body, not incompressible fluid. The bending moment under the explosive welding loading must be greater than that under dynamic limit of drive plate. According to the condition, the lower limit of explosive welding is obtained. It is about 20% less than that obtained by tradition calculation, and suitable for engineering application.(4) It is for the first time to test and study on soil anvil characteristics and change regularity under explosive welding impact loading. Through soil anvil parameter optimization analysis, it is the best for explosive welding with sandy soil of water content 17.00% and density 1.74q/cm3.展开更多

Dynamic preform addresses the poor formability problem of target material and advantage of VFAW on dissimilar materials in some conditions. But with standoff sheet inserting in the flyer and target, 2024/7075 welded pairs gets the better weld strength, compared with flyer preformed method. The microstructure of the circular weld area of the welded joint showed a wave interface, in which a thin melt layer formed at the center and edge parts. The crystal grains near the bonding interface were remarkably elongated and refined. Therefore, the joining of the 2024/7075 pairs was facilitated through plastic forming and melting.展开更多

A one-dimensional formula of flyer plate velocity was obtained and the bending angle curve representing flying attitude of flyer plate in double vertical was deduced as well. Compared with single parallel explosive welding, the double vertical explosive welding combines two cladding plates in one explosion. Due to closed charging structure, the influence of rarefaction wave on the plate＇s surface in double vertical explosive welding is eliminated and explosion loading time and displacement are increased, resulting in the increase of flyer velocity and energy utilization rate by 1.3 times to 1.6 times in different mass ratios. The analysis of microstructure in bonding zone of double vertical cladding plate under traditional charging shows that there is a clear over-melting near the interface, which is in line with the conclusion of detonation mechanism.展开更多
