Argon tungsten arc welding uses argon as a shielding gas to heat and melt the welding material itself (it is also melted when the filler metal is added) by means of the arc generated between the tu...
Among welding methods, Tungsten Inert Gas Welding (TIG) and Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)—commonly referred to as “Arc Welding”—are the two most prevalent processes. Those unfamil...
There are some inherent problems in dissimilar metal welding that hinder its development, such as the composition and performance of the dissimilar metal fusion zone. Most of the damage to the diss...
