Linear friction welding (LFW) is known as an advanced technique to substitute fusion welding of joining Ni-based superalloys. However, due to the complex microstructural development caused by LFW, some unexplained issues still need to be solved, such as: influence of weld parameters (weld pressure, amplitude of oscillation, and frequency of oscillation) on the development of microstructural, microhardness, texture and residual stresses in LFWed IN718-IN713LC; impact of post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) on the microstructural and microhardness development; influence of rapid thermal cycle on the precipitate dissolution of IN718 and IN713LC; formation mechanisms of alumina inclusions (Al-oxides) on the weld interface. The present work aims to investigate these issues.
