An arc welding is performed to join two metal pieces. After the welding process, the product is subjected to fatigue test. Discuss which part of the weld joint will have high potential to experience fatigue failure.
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?
Two 3.5 mm thick metal (Um = 9.5 J/mm?)
sheets are being joined using resistance spot welding. To achieve
required strength, it is desired to form a weld nugget that is 5.5 mm in
diameter and 4.0 mm thick. The weld duration will be set at 0.3 sec. If
the electrical resistance between the surfaces is 140 microohms, and
only onethird of the electrical energy generated will be used to form the
weld nugget determine the current.
