  Abstract: AbstractAbility to join aluminum alloy to steel enables weight reduction of automobile bodies. Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) process was employed to weld-braze A8011-H14 aluminum alloy to galvanized steel in lap configuration. The influence of heat input on bead formation and joint strength was investigated. The microstructural characterization was carried out using an optical microscope and scanning electron microscope. The chemical composition was analyzed using energy dispersive spectroscopy technique. The …
