Weldability and properties of welds of high-strength aluminum alloys of the Al – Cu – Li system

  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Results of studies of the weldability, properties, and structure of welded joints of lithium-alloyed aluminum alloys obtained by argon arc welding and friction welding with mixing (FWM) are described. The effect of the welding parameters on the structure and properties of the welds is studied.
