The investigation aimed at the invalidation mechanism analysis and reliability evaluation of aluminum alloy welded joint under space environment will provide spaceflight designing epartments and manufactures with important technology gist and data so as to greatly reduce paceflights manufactured cost and improve spaceflight working reliability. In this paper, the tensile properties and microstructures of LF6 aluminum alloy welded joint under vacuum thermal cycling have been studied by means of vacuum thermal cycling system. The influence of vacuum thermal cycling on the tensile properties of the welded joint has investigated. Results show that the strength and the enlongation reach their maximum values at about 75 times cycling. The changes of the tensile properties are regarded as resulted from the changes of grain and the motion of dislocation.

AbstractThe main aim of this investigation is to produce a welding joint of higher strength than that of base metals. Composite welded joints were produced by friction stir welding process. 6061 aluminum alloy was used as a base metal and alumina particles added to welding zone to form metal matrix composites. The volume fraction of alumina particles incorporated in this study were 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 vol% were added on both sides of welding line. Also, the alumina particles were pre-mixed with magnesium particles prior being added to the welding zone. Magnesium particles were used to enhance the bonding between the alumina particles and the matrix of 6061 aluminum alloy. Friction stir welded joints containing alumina particles were successfully obtained and it was observed that the strength of these joints was better than that of base metal. Experimental results showed that incorporating volume fraction of alumina particles up to 6 vol% into the welding zone led to higher strength of the composite welded joints as compared to plain welded joints.

Effects of thermal cycling on the tensile strength of aluminum alloy welded joints are studied experimentally in this paper. The damage mechanisms are also analyzed based on the microstructure observations. Results reveal that certain thermal cycling can cause strength decrease especially at the heat affected zone of the aluminum alloy welded joint. The cyclic temperature and the external load are the key factors which influence the strength of the welded joint specimens, while the cyclic period has a minor effect in thermal cycling conditions. Microstructure analysis also shows that voids nucleation and evolution governs the damage process under thermal cycling condition.

Fatigue test of the welded joint of 5083 aluminum alloy with smooth and height of specimen and the weld zone than the high test measurement and theoretical stress concentration coefficient calculation, the weld reinforcement effect of stress concentration on the fatigue performance of welded joints. The results show that: Smooth tensile strength of specimens for 264MPa, fatigue strength is 95MPa, the tensile strength of the 36%. Higher tensile strength of specimens for 320MPa, fatigue strength is 70MPa, the tensile strength of the 22%. Higher specimen stress concentration coefficient is 1.64, the stress concentration to the weld toe becomes fatigue initiation source, and reduces the fatigue strength and the fatigue life of welded joints.
