Mechanical properties and microstructural study of homogeneous and heterogeneous laser welds in α, β,and α + β titanium alloys
2018
International audience; Heterogeneous welding has been investigated for three different couples of titanium alloys: α/α + β, α/β,andα + β/β. Plates of 100 × 60 mm and 1.6 or 1.8 mm thick were welded with a Yb:YAG laser. Tensile tests show that the resistance of the heterogeneous welded specimens was generally controlled by those of the weakest material except for the α + β/β where the ultimate tensile strength was approximately equal to the average value of both materials. In every case, the elongation of the welded sample was found to be smaller than that of the base metals. The rupture generally took place outside the weld metal and was found to be most of the time located in the alloy ha…
Microstructure and property of titanium heterogeneous laser welding
2015
International audience; Dissimilar welding has been investigated for three different couples of titanium alloys: α/α+β, α/β and α+ββp. Plates of 100 x 60 x 1.6 or 1.8 mm were welded with a Yb: YAG laser. Tensile tests show that the properties of the dissimilar welded specimens were generally controlled by Those of the weakest material except for the α+β/β where the ultimate tensile strength was approximately equal to the average value of both materials. In every case, the welding sample elongation was found to be smaller than that of the base metals. The rupture took place away from the bead and was found to be always located in the alloy having the lowest mechanical properties. Nevertheles…
