Parametric Studies on Tensile Strength in Joining AA6061-T6 and AA7075-T6 by Gas Metal Arc Welding Process

Proper selection of the welding parameters can result in better joining. In this study,the effects of various welding parameters on tensile strength in joining dissimilar aluminum alloys AA6061 -T6 and AA7075-T6 were investigated. 2 mm thick samples of both base metals were welded by semi-automatic...
