title = "A fully quantitative characterization of the heat affected zone in a welded aluminium copper alloy",
abstract = "Transmission electron microscopy has been used to develop a fully quantitative understanding of the distribution of the θ′ phase in the heat affected zone of 2219-T87 alloy. Thin foils were prepared from various locations within the heat affected zone, and the θ′ precipitates were characterized in terms of number density, size, and volume fraction. The variations in these latter parameters, along with distance from the fusion zone, have been correlated with known thermal histories experienced within these regions. It is shown that the microstructures in the heat affected zone are dominated by dissolution of θ′ during the heating portion of the thermal cycle and by anisothermal growth of particle remnants during cooling. Guinier-Preston zones were found to precipitate in the region of the heat affected zone which was immediately adjacent to the fusion zone interface.",
