Effect of process parameters on microhardness and microstructure of heat affected zone in TIG welded X65-HSLA steel

The objective of the present article was to study the influence of welding parameters (current, arc voltage, travel speed and heat input) on microhardness, depth, and microstructure of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) and to optimize the process parameters after accomplishment of the TIG welding process...
