Item Fusion boundary microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of cold metal transfer welded dissimilar A5754 and A5083 joint(Elsevier B.V., 2021) Rajeshkumar, R.; Niranjani, V.L.; Devakumaran, K.; Banerjee, K.Fusion boundary microstructure evolution and its effect on tensile properties of cold metal transfer (CMT) welded joint of dissimilar A5754 and A5083 is studied. Non-dendritic equiaxed fine zone (EQZ) is newly evolved and located between PMZ and weld metal zone (WMZ). The Si films are distributed as continuous layers at grain boundaries (GBs) of EQZ, these films are comparatively less and are distributed in a non-continuous manner at GBs of partially melted zone (PMZ). EQZ of A5083 side exhibits finer grains than A5754 side. The narrower EQZ width, finer grains at EQZ, finer dendrites at WMZ interface and larger distribution of secondary phase particles at PMZ and heat affected zone (HAZ) increase strength of A5083 side. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Item Evolution of non-dendritic equiaxed zone and its influence on mechanical properties of tungsten inert gas welded dissimilar A6061-T6 and A6082-T6 joint(Elsevier B.V., 2021) Rajeshkumar, R.; Niranjani, V.L.; Devakumaran, K.; Banerjee, K.Non-dendritic equiaxed zone (EQZ) evolution and its influence on tensile properties of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welded joint of dissimilar A6061-T6 and A6082-T6 are studied. EQZ is observed in A6061-T6 interface whereas it is completely absent at the A6082-T6 interface. The distribution of fine Si eutectic phases along the grain boundaries (GBs) of EQZ of A6061-T6 interface appearing as discontinuous fine particles but as a continuous layer at most of the dendrite boundaries (DBs) at the center of the weld metal zone (WMZ). The improvement in strength of A6082-T6 interface compared to A6061-T6 interface is mainly attributed to the absence of EQZ in the former interface. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
