Abstract: Welding plays a major role in modern technology. During welding, a portion of the specimen is subjected to heating. Because of different heating and cooling cycles of the specimen, residual stresses induced in the specimen i.e., mechanical properties gets reduced. To enhance the mechanical properties there are different techniques are available i.e., thermal and non-thermal methods. Vibratory welding is the one of the non-thermal method; mechanical properties of steel specimens are analyzed under with and without vibrations under different power source condition. In this paper input parameters which are considered is straight polarity, reverse polarity and alternate current. Tensile and hardness property of the steel specimen are analyzed and compared with the without vibratory condition. 
Keywords: AC and DC power source, hardness, tensile strength, Vibratory welding and Welding.
Scope of the Article: Welding Technology
