Abstract
The effect of joint gap on the butt joint quality of Ti-6Al-4V alloy welded using a 4 kW Nd:yttrium aluminum garnet laser was evaluated in terms of the welding defects, microstructure, hardness, and tensile properties. The joint gap was proportionally filled using the filler wire with the compositions of the parent alloy. Fully penetrated welds without cracking were obtained up to a joint gap of 0.5 mm. The main defects observed in the welds were porosity and underfill. Specifically, the porosity area increased with increasing joint gap but remained less than 1% of the fusion zone area. Large underfill defects appeared in the weldments in the absence of a joint gap, but filler wire addition was observed to reduce this defect in the presence of a joint gap. The weld hardness decreased slightly with increasing joint gap, but the tensile properties were optimized at an intermediary gap size, probably due to the compromise between the low underfill (after the use of a filler wire) and a limited amount of porosity.

Full frame distilled prediction
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
