It is found that the hybrid process coarsened the microstructure in the fusion zone partly. Furthermore, although the weld seam and the heat affected zone were wider, mechanical properties were not at all adversely affected. Changes in hardness and tensile strength were marginal and the fatigue performance was in fact improved for the hybrid welds. These results are presented and discussed. It is concluded that the hybrid welding deserves consideration for fatigue critical applications.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1007/BF03263465} (DOI).
