    Abstract
    Alloy 6061 is derived from a combination of aluminum with elements such as magnesium and silicon. Due to its high corrosion resistance, excellent machinability, and high strength, this alloy is widely used in various industries, including aerospace, automotive, and the manufacturing of mechanical parts for airplanes. Butt resistance welding is one type of resistance welding employed for joining various components, such as train rails, construction rebar, automobile rims, as well as in aerospace, petrochemical, and marine industries. Butt resistance welding is a process that can be either fusion-based or solid-state. In this process, similar or dissimilar metals are joined by bringing them to...
