In large commercial airplanes, laser-beam welds are replacing rivets in large parts of the fuselage. An overview is given on the welding fundamentals, on implications for welding of aeronautical components, and on the trends in the industry that can be expected from progress at a fundamental level. Friction welding, friction stir welding, flash welding, resistance spot welding, gas metal arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding, plasma arc welding, electron beam welding, and diffusion welding are described.
