The effects of welding parameters including laser power and welding speed on the microstructures and mechanical properties of the joints were investigated. A sound bead, with the ultimate tensile strength （UTS） of 300 MPa and elongation of 12.0%, up to 92.5% and 65% of those of the base metal, respectively, is obtained with the optimized welding parameters. No liquation cracking is visible in the partially melted zone （PMZ） owing to the inhibitory action of the fine dispersed precipitates and the fine-grained microstructure in the as-rolled magnesium alloy sheets. The fusion zone （FZ） is featured with the equiaxed dendritic grains of the average grain size about 8 μm, which are similar to those in the heat affected zone （HAZ）, and this contributes to the relatively high joint efficiency.展开更多

文摘The infamous type Ⅳ failure within the fine-grained heat-affected zone (FGHAZ) in G115 steel weldments seriously threatens the safe operation of ultra-supercritical (USC) power plants.In this work,the traditional thermo-mechanical treatment was modified via the replacement of hot-rolling with cold rolling,i.e.,normalizing,cold rolling,and tempering (NCT),which was developed to improve the creep strength of the FGHAZ in G115 steel weldments.The NCT treatment effectively promoted the dissolution of preformed M_(23)C_(6)particles and relieved the boundary segregation of C and Cr during welding thermal cycling,which accelerated the dispersed reprecipitation of M_(23)C_(6) particles within the fresh reaustenitized grains during post-weld heat treatment.In addition,the precipitation of Cu-rich phases and MX particles was promoted evidently due to the deformation-induced dislocations.As a result,the interacting actions between precipitates,dislocations,and boundaries during creep were reinforced considerably.Following this strategy,the creep rupture life of the FGHAZ in G115 steel weldments can be prolonged by 18.6%,which can further push the application of G115 steel in USC power plants.

文摘The mechanical properties and microstructure features of the fine-grained heat-affected zone（FGHAZ） of ASTM4130 steel was investigated by optical microscope（OM）,scanning electron microscope（SEM）,transmission electron microscope（TEM）,and welding thermal simulation test.It is found that serious embrittlement occurs in the FGHAZ with an 81.37% decrease of toughness,compared with that of the base metal.Microstructure analysis reveals that the FGHAZ is mainly composed of acicular,equiaxed ferrite,granular ferrite,martensite,and martensite-austenite（M-A） constituent.The FGHAZ embrittlement is mainly induced by granular ferrite because of carbides located at its boundaries and sub-boundaries.Meanwhile,the existence of martensite and M-A constituent,which distribute in a discontinuous network,is also detrimental to the mechanical properties.

文摘Accurate fine-grained geospatial scene classification using remote sensing imagery is essential for a wide range of applications.However,existing approaches often rely on manually zooming remote sensing images at different scales to create typical scene samples.This approach fails to adequately support the fixed-resolution image interpretation requirements in real-world scenarios.To address this limitation,we introduce the million-scale fine-grained geospatial scene classification dataset(MEET),which contains over 1.03 million zoom-free remote sensing scene samples,manually annotated into 80 fine-grained categories.In MEET,each scene sample follows a scene-in-scene layout,where the central scene serves as the reference,and auxiliary scenes provide crucial spatial context for fine-grained classification.Moreover,to tackle the emerging challenge of scene-in-scene classification,we present the context-aware transformer(CAT),a model specifically designed for this task,which adaptively fuses spatial context to accurately classify the scene samples.CAT adaptively fuses spatial context to accurately classify the scene samples by learning attentional features that capture the relationships between the center and auxiliary scenes.Based on MEET,we establish a comprehensive benchmark for fine-grained geospatial scene classification,evaluating CAT against 11 competitive baselines.The results demonstrate that CAT significantly outperforms these baselines,achieving a 1.88%higher balanced accuracy(BA)with the Swin-Large backbone,and a notable 7.87%improvement with the Swin-Huge backbone.Further experiments validate the effectiveness of each module in CAT and show the practical applicability of CAT in the urban functional zone mapping.The source code and dataset will be publicly available at https://jerrywyn.github.io/project/MEET.html.

文摘Fine-grained sediments are widely distributed and constitute the most abundant component in sedi-mentary systems,thus the research on their genesis and distribution is of great significance.In recent years,fine-grained sediment gravity-flows(FGSGF)have been recognized as an important transportation and depositional mechanism for accumulating thick successions of fine-grained sediments.Through a comprehensive review and synthesis of global research on FGSGF deposition,the characteristics,depositional mechanisms,and distribution patterns of fine-grained sediment gravity-flow deposits(FGSGFD)are discussed,and future research prospects are clarified.In addition to the traditionally recognized low-density turbidity current and muddy debris flow,wave-enhanced gravity flow,low-density muddy hyperpycnal flow,and hypopycnal plumes can all form widely distributed FGSGFD.At the same time,the evolution of FGSGF during transportation can result in transitional and hybrid gravity-flow deposits.The combination of multiple triggering mechanisms promotes the widespread develop-ment of FGSGFD,without temporal and spatial limitations.Different types and concentrations of clay minerals,organic matters,and organo-clay complexes are the keys to controlling the flow transformation of FGSGF from low-concentration turbidity currents to high-concentration muddy debris flows.Further study is needed on the interaction mechanism of FGSGF caused by different initiations,the evolution of FGSGF with the effect of organic-inorganic synergy,and the controlling factors of the distribution pat-terns of FGSGFD.The study of FGSGFD can shed some new light on the formation of widely developed thin-bedded siltstones within shales.At the same time,these insights may broaden the exploration scope of shale oil and gas,which have important geological significances for unconventional shale oil and gas.

文摘Joint Multimodal Aspect-based Sentiment Analysis(JMASA)is a significant task in the research of multimodal fine-grained sentiment analysis,which combines two subtasks:Multimodal Aspect Term Extraction(MATE)and Multimodal Aspect-oriented Sentiment Classification(MASC).Currently,most existing models for JMASA only perform text and image feature encoding from a basic level,but often neglect the in-depth analysis of unimodal intrinsic features,which may lead to the low accuracy of aspect term extraction and the poor ability of sentiment prediction due to the insufficient learning of intra-modal features.Given this problem,we propose a Text-Image Feature Fine-grained Learning(TIFFL)model for JMASA.First,we construct an enhanced adjacency matrix of word dependencies and adopt graph convolutional network to learn the syntactic structure features for text,which addresses the context interference problem of identifying different aspect terms.Then,the adjective-noun pairs extracted from image are introduced to enable the semantic representation of visual features more intuitive,which addresses the ambiguous semantic extraction problem during image feature learning.Thereby,the model performance of aspect term extraction and sentiment polarity prediction can be further optimized and enhanced.Experiments on two Twitter benchmark datasets demonstrate that TIFFL achieves competitive results for JMASA,MATE and MASC,thus validating the effectiveness of our proposed methods.

文摘Based on recent advancements in shale oil exploration within the Ordos Basin,this study presents a comprehensive investigation of the paleoenvironment,lithofacies assemblages and distribution,depositional mechanisms,and reservoir characteristics of shale oil of fine-grained sediment deposition in continental freshwater lacustrine basins,with a focus on the Chang 7_(3) sub-member of Triassic Yanchang Formation.The research integrates a variety of exploration data,including field outcrops,drilling,logging,core samples,geochemical analyses,and flume simulation.The study indicates that:(1)The paleoenvironment of the Chang 7_(3) deposition is characterized by a warm and humid climate,frequent monsoon events,and a large water depth of freshwater lacustrine basin.The paleogeomorphology exhibits an asymmetrical pattern,with steep slopes in the southwest and gentle slopes in the northeast,which can be subdivided into microgeomorphological units,including depressions and ridges in lakebed,as well as ancient channels.(2)The Chang 7_(3) sub-member is characterized by a diverse array of fine-grained sediments,including very fine sandstone,siltstone,mudstone and tuff.These sediments are primarily distributed in thin interbedded and laminated arrangements vertically.The overall grain size of the sandstone predominantly falls below 62.5μm,with individual layer thicknesses of 0.05–0.64 m.The deposits contain intact plant fragments and display various sedimentary structure,such as wavy bedding,inverse-to-normal grading sequence,and climbing ripple bedding,which indicating a depositional origin associated with density flows.(3)Flume simulation experiments have successfully replicated the transport processes and sedimentary characteristics associated with density flows.The initial phase is characterized by a density-velocity differential,resulting in a thicker,coarser sediment layer at the flow front,while the upper layers are thinner and finer in grain size.During the mid-phase,sliding water effects cause the fluid front to rise and facilitate rapid forward transport.This process generates multiple“new fronts”,enabling the long-distance transport of fine-grained sandstones,such as siltstone and argillaceous siltstone,into the center of the lake basin.(4)A sedimentary model primarily controlled by hyperpynal flows was established for the southwestern part of the basin,highlighting that the frequent occurrence of flood events and the steep slope topography in this area are primary controlling factors for the development of hyperpynal flows.(5)Sandstone and mudstone in the Chang 7_(3) sub-member exhibit micro-and nano-scale pore-throat systems,shale oil is present in various lithologies,while the content of movable oil varies considerably,with sandstone exhibiting the highest content of movable oil.(6)The fine-grained sediment complexes formed by multiple episodes of sandstones and mudstones associated with density flow in the Chang 7_(3) formation exhibit characteristics of“overall oil-bearing with differential storage capacity”.The combination of mudstone with low total organic carbon content(TOC)and siltstone is identified as the most favorable exploration target at present.

文摘In this paper,we propose hierarchical attention dual network(DNet)for fine-grained image classification.The DNet can randomly select pairs of inputs from the dataset and compare the differences between them through hierarchical attention feature learning,which are used simultaneously to remove noise and retain salient features.In the loss function,it considers the losses of difference in paired images according to the intra-variance and inter-variance.In addition,we also collect the disaster scene dataset from remote sensing images and apply the proposed method to disaster scene classification,which contains complex scenes and multiple types of disasters.Compared to other methods,experimental results show that the DNet with hierarchical attention is robust to different datasets and performs better.

文摘Soil responds to cavity expansion is inherently rate-dependent,especially in the case of fine-grained soils.To better understand such rate effects,self-boring pressuremeter tests were conducted on Kunming peaty soil within a strain rate range of 0.1%/min to 5.0%/min.The results showed a clear dependence of cavity pressure and excess pore pressure(EPP)on strain ratesdboth increased with higher rates for a given radial displacement.In light of the experimental results,three cases of cylindrical cavity expansion were investigated using the finite element method and analytical method,partially drained expansion in Modified Cam-Clay(MCC)soil,and undrained and partially drained expansion in elastoviscoplastic(EVP)soil.The EVP behavior was and modeled using the MCC model and the overstress viscoplastic theory.The results indicated that over the strain rate range of 0.0001%/min and 50%/min,the rate response of cavity pressure for the case of partially drained expansion in MCC soil(permeability coefficient ranging from 5×10^(-6) m/s to 2.5×10^(-11) m/s)is not obvious,while the EPP response during undrained expansion in EVP soil shows rate-independent.Only the partially drained solution for cavity expansion in EVP soil captured the rate-sensitive responses of both cavity pressure and EPP,confirmed by the pressuremeter tests on the Kunming peaty soil,Saint-Herblain clay,and Burswood clay.This suggests that the rate effect results from a combination of drainage-related and time-dependent soil behavior.Parametric studies further demonstrated that both viscous behavior and the overconsolidation ratio significantly influence cylindrical cavity expansion response,and the drainage conditions during expansion can be assessed using a nondimensional velocity.

文摘Climate change is a global phenomenon that has profound impacts on ecological dynamics and biodiversity,shaping the interactions between species and their environment.To gain a deeper understanding of the mechanisms driving climate change,phenological monitoring is essential.Traditional methods of defining phenological phases often rely on fixed thresholds.However,with the development of technology,deep learning-based classification models are now able to more accurately delineate phenological phases from images,enabling phenological monitoring.Despite the significant advancements these models have made in phenological monitoring,they still face challenges in fully capturing the complexity of biotic-environmental interactions,which can limit the fine-grained accuracy of phenological phase identification.To address this,we propose a novel deep learning model,RESformer,designed to monitor tree phenology at a fine-grained level using PhenoCam images.RESformer features a lightweight structure,making it suitable for deployment in resource-constrained environments.It incorporates a dual-branch routing mechanism that considers both global and local information,thereby improving the accuracy of phenological monitoring.To validate the effectiveness of RESformer,we conducted a case study involving 82,118 images taken over two years from four different locations in Wisconsin,focusing on the phenology of Acer.The images were classified into seven distinct phenological stages,with RESformer achieving an overall monitoring accuracy of 96.02%.Furthermore,we compared RESformer with a phenological monitoring approach based on the Green Chromatic Coordinate(GCC)index and ten popular classification models.The results showed that RESformer excelled in fine-grained monitoring,effectively capturing and identifying changes in phenological stages.This finding not only provides strong support for monitoring the phenology of Acer species but also offers valuable insights for understanding ecological trends and developing more effective ecosystem conservation and management strategies.

文摘The spray-deposition was used to produce billets of Mg-4Al-1.5Zn-3Ca-1Nd(A alloy)and Mg-13Al-3Zn-3Ca-1Nd(B alloy),and evolution of deformation substructure and Mg_(x)Zn_(y)Ca_(z)metastable phase in fine-grained(3μm)Mg alloys was investigated by scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),and electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD).It was found that different dislocation configurations were formed in A and B alloys.Redundant free dislocations(RFDs)and dislocation tangles were the ways to form deformation substructure in A alloy,no RFDs except dislocation tangles were found in B alloy.The interaction between nano-scale second phase particles(nano-scale C15 andβ-Mg_(17)(Al,Zn)_(12)phase)and different dislocation configurations had a significant effect on the deformation substructures formation.The mass transfer of Mg_(x)Zn_(y)Ca_(z)metastable phases and the stacking order of stacking faults were conducive to the Mg-Nd-Zn typed long period stacking ordered(LPSO)phases formation.Nano-scale C15 phases,Mg-Nd-Zn typed LPSO phases,c/a ratio,β-Mg_(17)(Al,Zn)_(12)phases were the key factors influencing the formation of textures.Different textures and grain boundary features(GB features)had a significant effect on k-value.The non-basal textures were the main factor affecting k-value in A alloy,while the high-angle grain boundary(HAGB)was the main factor affecting k-value in B alloy.

文摘Bird monitoring and protection are essential for maintaining biodiversity,and fine-grained bird classification has become a key focus in this field.Audio-visual modalities provide critical cues for this task,but robust feature extraction and efficient fusion remain major challenges.We introduce a multi-stage fine-grained audiovisual fusion network(MSFG-AVFNet) for fine-grained bird species classification,which addresses these challenges through two key components:(1) the audiovisual feature extraction module,which adopts a multi-stage finetuning strategy to provide high-quality unimodal features,laying a solid foundation for modality fusion;(2) the audiovisual feature fusion module,which combines a max pooling aggregation strategy with a novel audiovisual loss function to achieve effective and robust feature fusion.Experiments were conducted on the self-built AVB81and the publicly available SSW60 datasets,which contain data from 81 and 60 bird species,respectively.Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that our approach achieves notable performance gains,outperforming existing state-of-the-art methods.These results highlight its effectiveness in leveraging audiovisual modalities for fine-grained bird classification and its potential to support ecological monitoring and biodiversity research.

文摘Fine-grained aircraft target detection in remote sensing holds significant research valueand practical applications,particularly in military defense and precision strikes.Given the complex-ity of remote sensing images,where targets are often small and similar within categories,detectingthese fine-grained targets is challenging.To address this,we constructed a fine-grained dataset ofremotely sensed airplanes;for the problems of remote sensing fine-grained targets with obvious head-to-tail distributions and large variations in target sizes,we proposed the DWDet fine-grained tar-get detection and recognition algorithm.First,for the problem of unbalanced category distribution,we adopt an adaptive sampling strategy.In addition,we construct a deformable convolutional blockand improve the decoupling head structure to improve the detection effect of the model ondeformed targets.Then,we design a localization loss function,which is used to improve the model’slocalization ability for targets of different scales.The experimental results show that our algorithmimproves the overall accuracy of the model by 4.1%compared to the baseline model,and improvesthe detection accuracy of small targets by 12.2%.The ablation and comparison experiments alsoprove the effectiveness of our algorithm.

文摘Fine-grained Image Recognition(FGIR)task is dedicated to distinguishing similar sub-categories that belong to the same super-category,such as bird species and car types.In order to highlight visual differences,existing FGIR works often follow two steps:discriminative sub-region localization and local feature representation.However,these works pay less attention on global context information.They neglect a fact that the subtle visual difference in challenging scenarios can be highlighted through exploiting the spatial relationship among different subregions from a global view point.Therefore,in this paper,we consider both global and local information for FGIR,and propose a collaborative teacher-student strategy to reinforce and unity the two types of information.Our framework is implemented mainly by convolutional neural network,referred to Teacher-Student Based Attention Convolutional Neural Network(T-S-ACNN).For fine-grained local information,we choose the classic Multi-Attention Network(MA-Net)as our baseline,and propose a type of boundary constraint to further reduce background noises in the local attention maps.In this way,the discriminative sub-regions tend to appear in the area occupied by fine-grained objects,leading to more accurate sub-region localization.For fine-grained global information,we design a graph convolution based Global Attention Network(GA-Net),which can combine extracted local attention maps from MA-Net with non-local techniques to explore spatial relationship among subregions.At last,we develop a collaborative teacher-student strategy to adaptively determine the attended roles and optimization modes,so as to enhance the cooperative reinforcement of MA-Net and GA-Net.Extensive experiments on CUB-200-2011,Stanford Cars and FGVC Aircraft datasets illustrate the promising performance of our framework.

文摘Coralline soils,specialized materials found extensively in the South China Sea,are playing an increasingly vital role in engineering projects.However,like most terrigenous soils,fine-grained coral soil is prone to shrinkage and cracking,which can significantly affect its engineering properties and ultimately jeopardize engineering safety.This paper presents a desiccation cracking test of fine-grained coral soil,with a particular focus on the thickness effect.The study involved measuring the water content and recording the evolution of desiccation cracking.Advanced image processing technology is employed to analyze the variations in crack parameters,clod parameters,fractal dimensions,frequency distributions,and desiccation cracking propagation velocities of fine-grained coral soil.Furthermore,the dynamic evolution of desiccation cracking under the influence of layer thickness is analyzed.A comprehensive crack evolution model is proposed,encompassing both top-down and bottom-up crack propagation,as well as internal tensile cracking.This work introduces novel metrics for the propagation velocity of the total crack area,the characteristic propagation velocities of desiccation cracks,and the acceleration of crack propagation.Through data fitting,theoretical formulas for soil water evaporation,propagation velocities of desiccation cracks,and crack propagation acceleration are derived,laying a foundation for future soil cracking theories.

文摘This study investigates the microstructure and co-precipitation behavior of multicomponent(Ni(Al,Mn)and Cu)nanoparticles in the weld heat-affected zones of high-strength low-carbon steel.Through thermal simulations,the intercritical,fine-grained,and coarsegrained heat-affected zones were systematically characterized to elucidate the interplay between the microstructure,precipitation,and mechanical properties.At a heat input of 30 kJ·cm^(−1),Ni(Al,Mn)nanoparticles dissolve in the intercritical heat-affected zone,followed by dense reprecipitation coupled with significant coarsening of Cu particles during cooling,thereby retaining high strength but reducing impact toughness to(142±10)J(compared to(205±8)J of the base metal).The fine-grained heat-affected zone,under the same heat input,exhibits a refined ferritic-bainite matrix with a few fine Ni(Al,Mn)and slightly coarsened Cu particles,thus enhancing plastic deformation capacity and resulting in superior impact toughness of(196±7)J.Despite complete dissolution of original precipitates at peak temperatures in the coarse-grained heat-affected zone,re-precipitated nanoparticles provide effective strengthening effect,compensating for grain coarsening and dislocation recovery and resulting in an impressive impact toughness of(186±6)J.The toughening mechanism is primarily attributed to the synergistic actions of the matrix,precipitates,and deformation twins.These findings provide mechanistic and quantitative insights for developing processing-microstructure-property relationships in different welding heat-affected zones,and this framework can be further utilized to optimize welding parameters for tailored applications.

文摘The Guanxian-Anxian fault zone in the Longmen Shan,Sichuan,China,exhibits long-term creep-slip but ruptured during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake,challenging the view that creeping faults rarely generate strong earthquakes.To investigate the transition from creep-slip to stick-slip,we analyzed fault rocks from the WFSD-3,using microstructural observations,XRD,μXRF,Raman spectroscopy,and quartz grain size statistics.Fault rocks show intense foliation,pressure-solution structures,and abundant clay minerals,reflecting long-term aseismic creep.At the interface between black and gray fault gouges at~1249.98 m,microstructures indicate stick-slip behavior,including truncated grains,angular fragments,and finer grain sizes.Here,clay content drops sharply while strong minerals(quartz,feldspar,calcite,dolomite)increase.Elemental mapping shows Al and K enriched in black gouge,whereas Ca and Si in gray gouge;Raman spectroscopy indicates possible graphitization;the finest quartz grains occur in black gouge.These features mark co-seismic principal slip zone of the Wenchuan earthquake.We propose that fluid-driven transformation of strong minerals into clays facilitates creep-slip,whereas localized precipitation of strong minerals strengthens the fault,causing stress accumulation and controlling the creep-slip to stick-slip transition.This mechanism has implications for reassessing seismic hazards of creeping faults.

文摘Nereididae is a prolific annelid family widely distributed in the world oceans,especially in the Indo-Pacific Convergence Zone(IPCZ).However,its biogeographic pattern remains unexplored in IPCZ.To contribute to the understanding of biodiversity and biogeography of Nereididae in the IPCZ,we integrated historical data of species distributions with those of model-predicted ones to determine the biogeographic patterns of nereid species,from which we projected to its future distribution patterns for 2090-2100 under different climate scenarios(SSP1-1.9 and SSP5-8.5).Functional diversity within IPCZ was assessed using functional richness,functional evenness,and functional disparity.Divergence times within Nereididae were estimated using three DNA marker genes(COI,16S,and 18S rRNA),and a time tree was constructed based on a strict molecular clock model.The IPCZ was established as a key Nereididae biodiversity hotspot through distribution modelling of 256 species(44 genera),and temperature emerging as the predominant climatic driver of species distribution patterns.The distribution of species and functional diversity is notable for its non-centralized pattern.We projected that by the end of the century,areas of medium-to-high species richness will expand significantly under the low-emission SSP1-1.9 climate scenario.However,under the high-emission SSP5-8.5 scenario,the suitability of these regions significantly declines,posing an increasingly severe threat to biodiversity.In addition,by molecular clock analysis,we revealed that the evolutionary divergence of extant nereidid species occurred mainly in the Cretaceous and Jurassic,suggesting that paleogeographical and environmental events,such as oceanic anoxic events,might have played a pivotal role in shaping the evolutionary trajectory and ecological adaptations of marine annelids.These findings highlight the importance of considering both current biodiversity patterns and historical contexts in conservation planning,and provided insights into the potential factors on the biogeographic distribution and evolutionary processes of Nereididae.

文摘Systematically analyzing the impact mechanisms of policy on Land Use Conflict(LUC)is crucial for constructing effective conflict mitigation strategies.However,previous research on how policy influences LUC remains relatively limited.Focusing on the indirect driving role of policy on LUC,this study proposed County Development Level(CDL)under Major Function Oriented Zone Planning(MFOZP)guidance as an intermediary variable,bridging the implicit influence of MFOZP and the explicit changes in LUC.Using the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei(BTH)region in China as a case study,we analyzed the spatio-temporal evolution characteristics of LUC and CDL for the periods 2000-2010 and 2010-2020,before and after MFOZP implementation.Panel models and Geographically Weighted Regression(GWR)were employed to explore the mechanism by which CDL influences LUC under MFOZP guidance.The results show that:1)MFOZP implementation effectively alleviates land use pressure from regional development,with LUC continuously declining at a rate of 2.41%,while CDL exhibits slight growth(3.84%),during 2010-2020.2)Under MFOZP guidance,CDL reduces pressure on Land Use Structure Conflict(LUSC)and Land Use Process Conflict(LUPC),enhances its inhibitory effect on Land Use Function Conflict(LUFC),and significantly contributes to LUC coordination,with notable spatial heterogeneity.3)The coupling relationship between CDL and LUC has improved post-implementation.Based on this,tailored LUC coordination strategies are proposed for different functional zones.This study confirms the effectiveness of MFOZP in coordinating LUC and provides a scientific reference for LUC research under policy frameworks and the governance of LUC in the BTH region.

文摘Fine-grained ZK60 magnesium alloy sheets of 2.0 mm in thickness were successfully joined by laser beam welding （LBW）. The effects of welding parameters including laser power and welding speed on the microstructures and mechanical properties of the joints were investigated. A sound bead, with the ultimate tensile strength （UTS） of 300 MPa and elongation of 12.0%, up to 92.5% and 65% of those of the base metal, respectively, is obtained with the optimized welding parameters. No liquation cracking is visible in the partially melted zone （PMZ） owing to the inhibitory action of the fine dispersed precipitates and the fine-grained microstructure in the as-rolled magnesium alloy sheets. The fusion zone （FZ） is featured with the equiaxed dendritic grains of the average grain size about 8 μm, which are similar to those in the heat affected zone （HAZ）, and this contributes to the relatively high joint efficiency.
