Investigation on the Mechanical Properties of TIG Welded AA6061 Alloy Weldments using Different Aluminium Fillers

In this research, the effect of filler weld material on the mechanical properties of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welded AA6061 alloy weldments have been investigated. The microstructure of the base metal (BM) as well as weld metal (WM) and heat affected zone (HAZ) was analyzed using optical microscopy...
