The mass saving potential of light-weight materials, such as Al alloys, is beneficial for fuel
economy and reducing CO 2 emissions. However, the wide-spread use of these alloys has …

Magnesium alloys have achieved a good balance between biocompatibility and mechanical
properties, and have great potential for clinical application, and their performance as implant …

Fatigue life prediction based on small size of fatigue experimental datasets in specific
materials is limited and easy to overfit. Herein, we devise a knowledge-based machine …

Aluminum is a material that is often used in the transportation industry because it has a low
density, high strength, and good corrosion resistance. The transport structure requires …

Influences of base metal and welding speed on fusion zone microstructure and heat affected
zone (HAZ) hot-cracking of electron beam welded (EBW) Inconel 718 were investigated …

Abstract The 7N01-T5 alloy (AT5) and 7N01-T4 alloy (AT4) were butt welded by metal inert
gas (MIG) welding with ER5356 filler wire, and the mechanical properties and corrosion …

Additive manufacturing (AM) has emerged as a crucial element of Industry 4.0. In the pursuit
of fabricating lightweight components, AM of aluminium alloys has become the centre of …

In the wire and arc additive manufacturing process, the cumulative temperature increase
caused by the repeated deposition process reduces the dimensional accuracy of the build …

This work investigates the fatigue damage evolution of butt welded joints under cyclic
loading through a continuum damage mechanics approach. A coupled thermal-mechanical …

4043 aluminium deposits were elaborated using a 3D print device equipped with a Cold
Metal Transfer welding source. Two sets of process parameters leading to different average …
