In-situ micro-tensile testing of AA2024-T3 fibre laser welds with digital image correlation as a function of welding speed

In this paper, the influence of welding speed on tensile properties of AA2024-T3 fibre laser welds was investigated by monitoring the deformation behaviour during tensile loading. In-situ micro-tensile testing combined with a high-resolution optical microscope and DIC was used to measure strain dist...
