Abstract
When zinc coated steels are laser welded, zinc adjacent to the weld bead is vaporized and will cause serious weld pool disruption in lap welding unless special measures are applied such as provision of a joint gap for vapor venting. A novel alternative technique has been developed to stabilize laser lap welding: this involves addition of a small amount of aluminum to the faying surface region, so that a liquid Al–Zn alloy of high boiling point is formed, thus lowering the Zn vapor pressure. Lap welds have been made with good process stability using Nd: yttrium–aluminum–garnet and direct diode lasers, and with added Al in the form of inserted foil or previously applied cold sprayed coatings. The development is described in U.S. Patent Application No. 11/226,834. Process optimization is currently under way to define optimum aluminum addition rates that will reliably suppress defects while minimizing Al uptake into the steel weld pool.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
