Provide a reasonable explanation for the following observation: a welded component made of Al 6061-T6 alloy is routinely found to deform plastically first in the region adjacent to the weld joint despite the fact that the stress is nominally the same everywhere in the component. What solution would you propose to fix this problem, assuming that the weld joint cannot be eliminated from the design?
An arc welding operation on nickel performs a groove weld, whose cross-sectional area = 20.0 mm2. The melting point of nickel Tm = 1725° Travel velocity = 4.0 mm/sec. Heat transfer factor = 0.82, and melting factor = 0.70. Determine the rate of heat generation required at the welding source to accomplish this weld.
A gas metal arc welding test is performed to determine the value of melting factor f₂ for a
certain metal and operation. The welding voltage = 25 volts, current = 125 amps, and heat
transfer factor is assumed to be = 0.90, a typical value for GMAW. The rate at which the
filler metal is added to the weld is 0.50 in³ per minute, and measurements indicate that the
final weld bead consists of 57% filler metal and 43% base metal. The unit melting energy
for the metal is known to be 75 Btu/in³. (a) Find the melting factor. (b) What is the travel
speed if the cross-sectional area of the weld bead = 0.05 in²?
