Abstract
The paper deals with the regularities of variation of the strength and toughness of welded joints in Al-Li alloys, depending on the composition of the base and filler materials, heat input in welding, structure and operating conditions.
Keywords: fusion welding, aluminum-lithium alloys, welded joints, structure, weld metal, fusion zone, HAZ, strength, fracture toughness, operating conditions, investigations, comparative analysis
