Optimization of Pulse Current TIG Welding Parameters for Enhanced Performance of CompositeAluminum Alloy Joints
Abstract: Abstract Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding is highly regarded as the primary welding method, especially for challenging metals like aluminum. Pulsed current TIG welding has been specifically developed for welding aluminum alloys. Composite weld joints of aluminum alloys AA5052 and AA6063 find extensive use in diverse sectors, such as automotive and marine applications, where significant mechanical properties and corrosion resistance are required. It is crucial to carefully select the process …

Dynamics Behaviour of Clamped-Clamped Non-Uniform Elastic Beam on Two Parameters Foundation Under Concentrated Moving Load
Abstract: This paper presents a computational study on the dynamic response of a clamped–clamped non-uniform elastic beam supported by a two-parameter foundation and subjected to a concentrated moving load. The analysis incorporates the inertial contribution of the moving load. Unlike uniform models, both the mass per unit length and the moment of inertia of the beam are assumed to vary along the span LLL. The governing equations are solved using the …
