Modeling of chemical composition in the melt pool during laser welding of Aluminum / Magnesium alloys

Joining dissimilar metals is very difficult due to the formation of brittle intermetallic phases which may be detrimental to mechanical properties. The present work aims to investigate the transport phenomenon in the weld bead and to understand the materials mixing during laser welding process of di...
