In this study, V and X welding grooves were opened to the forehead positions of the AA5182 and AA7075 aluminum alloy pairs and these alloy pairs were joined with tungsten inert gas (TIG) and metal inert gas (MIG) methods. Three different welding currents were used in joints. Gas flow rates of 12 and 17 l/min at the TIG welding and wire feed rates of 38 and 45 cm/min at MIG welding were selected. The effect of the welding grooves, welding current, gas flow rate and wire feed rate on microstructure and mechanical properties were investigated. Microstructures of welding zones were analyzed by an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Vickers hardness of these zones was also measured. In addition, tensile and fatigue tests were carried out. Fracture mechanisms of failed specimens were conducted after the tensile tests were examined by using SEM. The highest hardness, tensile and fatigue strengths were obtained from the alloy pairs joined by opening X welding groove with TIG welding method. These values were 89 HV, 262.87 MPa, and 131.5 MPa, respectively. Similarly, the lowest tensile and fatigue strengths were obtained from the alloy pairs joined by opening V welding groove in the TIG welding method. These values were, respectively, 94.48 MPa and 19.1 MPa. However, the minimum hardness value was measured as 58 HV from the alloy pairs joined by opening V welding groove with MIG welding methods. In addition, it was observed on the fracture surfaces that the grain distributions and mechanisms differed depending on the welding methods, welding groove, and welding parameters.
In this study, adhesive wear of woven E-Glass fabric reinforced composites filled with aramid, B4C and mica particles at 0.5% wt. and 1.5% wt. ratios were carried out under dry sliding conditions. The effects of filler type, applied loads (5, 10 and 15 N) and sliding distances (250, 500 and 750 m) on the tribological behavior of the composites were investigated on the pin-on-disc device. As a result of the studies, it was determined that the friction coefficient in aramid reinforced composites was lower than the other reinforced composites. In wear volume due to wear, it was observed that the aramid wear volume was less. In addition, Wear volume increased with increasing load for all particle reinforcements. But, the highest wear volume occurred in the neat wear sample at 15 N load conditions. For the wear rate and wear volume, the fillers have shown improvement up to 1.5% wt. in the composite. 1.5% wt. aramid-filled glass fiber woven composites showed the lowest wear rate: 2.82 × 10−4 mm3/N-m (at 15 N normal load). In addition, in the scanning electron microscope images taken, it was observed that there were breaks in the size of 15.07 µm in the epoxy and 61.11 µm in the fibers. The use of aramid with particle reinforcement rather than fiber is important for wear. In addition, the lowest wear volume was 65% more resistant at 1.5% wt aramid reinforcement and at 15 N load compared to the unreinforced composite in the abrasion tests.
ÖzYapılan çalışmada 1500, 1700 ve 1900 dev/dak devirlerinde ve 4, 6 ve 8 saniye sürtünme sürelerinde, sürtünme kaynak metodu ile AISI 304 paslanmaz çeliği ile AISI 5140 çeliğin birleşimi yapılmıştır. Birleşimi yapılan çelik çiftlerinin kaynak bölgeleri ve esas malzemelerin SEM görüntüleri alınmış olup, ayrıca kaynak için önemli olan bu bölgelerin mikrosertlik ölçümleri de yapılmıştır. Son olarak ASTM E8 standardına uygun olarak hazırlanan kaynaklı numuneler çekme yüküne tabi tutulmuştur. Sonuç olarak 1900 dev/dak devirde ve 8 saniye sürtünme süresinde yapılan birleştirmelerin ara kesitinde alınan numunenin SEM görüntüsünde daha düzgün bir birleşmenin olduğu ve bunun sonucunda çekme testlerinde de en iyi sonuçlar elde edildiği görülmüştür.
ÖzBu çalışmada farklı özelliklere sahip AA5182 ve AA7075 alüminyum alaşımları, sürtünme karıştırma kaynağı (SKK) yöntemiyle alın pozisyonunda birleştirilmiştir. Yapılan birleştirmelerde karıştırıcı ucun dönme devri, kaynak ilerleme hızı ve karıştırıcı uç geometrisi değiştirilerek farklı mekanik ve mikroyapı özelliklerine sahip birleştirmeler elde edilmeye çalışılmıştır. SKK yöntemi ile birleştirilen kaynaklı bağlantılarda kaynak ilerleme hızının, karıştırıcı ucun dönme devrinin ve uç geometrisinin mekanik davranışlar üzerine olan etkisini tespit etmek amacıyla numunelere çekme testi uygulanmıştır. Ayrıca taramalı elektron mikroskobu (SEM) kullanılarak çekme testi sonucunda kırılan numunelerin yüzey mekanizmaları belirlenmiştir. Çekme test sonuçlarından elde edilen verilerden, AA5182 ve AA7075 alüminyum alaşımlarının SKK yöntemiyle ile birleştirilmesinde, uygun dönme devrinin, ilerleme hızı ve uç geometrisi kombinasyonunun kaynak kalitesini arttırdığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca konik helisel uç kullanılarak 980 dev/dk dönme devri ve 108 mm/dk ilerleme kaynak parametreleri ile birleştirilen numunelerin çekme test deneylerinde en yüksek hasar kuvveti 16468 N olarak elde edilmiştir.
