AbstractLaser welding processes offer significant advantages such as high welding speed, narrow heat affected zone and quality of the welding joint. In this study, the process parameters of laser power and welding speed were modified for AISI 1018 steel plates of 8 mm thickness and compared using finite element method. The results of cross-section microstructure, heat affected zone and fusion zone were characterized. The grain refinement was affected as the parameters were modified. Tensile and microhardness tests were performed to determine the mechanical properties of the welding joints. Microhardness increased in fusion zone and decreased in heat affected zone. Tensile test showed ductile fracture in heat affected zone of the welding joints. The simulated profiles were compared with the experimental observations showing a reasonable agreement.

2A97 Al-Li alloy with good comprehensive performance is a new type of Al-Li alloys in our country,in order to meet the ever-increased long-term requirements of aerospace,aviation and armament industries,microstructure and mechanical properties of 2A97Al-Li alloy fiber laser welding joint were analyzed in this paper.The results show that:2A97 Al-Li alloy laser welding joints from welding fusion line to the center of welding seam are non-dendritic equiaxed grain zone,columnar crystal zone,columnar dendrite zone,equiaxed dendrite zone.Precipitates θ,T2 and T1 are probably exited in FZ,hardness of the center of FZ is the lowest.Yield strength of welding joints are about 70% of base metal,tensile strength are approximately 63% of the base metal.
