Published:1997
Abstract
This article discusses the fusion welding processes that are most widely used for joining titanium, namely, gas-tungsten arc welding, gas-metal arc welding, plasma arc welding, laser-beam welding, and electron-beam welding. It describes several important and interrelated aspects of welding phenomena that contribute to the overall understanding of titanium alloy welding metallurgy. These factors include alloy types, weldability, melting and solidification effects on weld microstructure, postweld heat treatment effects, structure/mechanical property/fracture relationships, and welding process application.
