As with welded joints, brazed ones are often stronger ... Then the choice between welding and brazing comes down to size, thickness, configuration and materials. But if hundreds or thousands ...

Ultrasonic pulse frequency tungsten inert gas welding technology was adopted to join Ti-22Al-25Nb alloy. There were some cracks in the Ti-22Al-25Nb alloy weld joint after post-weld heat treatment. The ...

To this end, two main weld configurations were considered: (i) single-lap joints (SLJs) subjected to cyclic bending and (ii) 3-point bending joints (3PBJs) for static and cyclic loading. More ...
