Specific Energy as a Characterizing Parameter for Laser Welded Ti-5Al-5V-5Mo-3Cr Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this study, specific energy was calculated and correlated with the geometries, defects, microstructures, hardness values and tensile properties of the laser welded Ti-5553 alloy. It was found that specific energy is a good parameter to characterize the laser welding process.
