Quantitative analysis of the solute redistribution and precipitate of Al–Mg–Si series alloys resistance spot welds after post–weld heat treatment

In this study, an analytical model was established for calculating solute distribution pattern and precipitates of the Al–Mg–Si series alloys resistance spot welds. By coupling the model with a thermodynamic database, a volume element Ω was considered, then used to calculate the effective Mg and Si...
