This paper deals with the effect of longitudinal vibration on the mechanical properties of mild steel weldments. The weldments were prepared under different frequencies and amplitudes of vibration. Experiment was carried out in the frequency and amplitude ranges of 0-400 Hz and 0-40 μm respectively. It is found that yield strength, ultimate tensile strength and hardness improves for mild steel specimens welded under vibratory conditions. It is further observed that this improvement in the mechanical properties is appreciable up to 30 μm amplitude.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
