The vibrations generate a smaller grain size in the metal, increasing its strength. Frequencies between 20-60 kHz are used to create strong, rigid joints between combinations of metals like aluminum and steel. Prior research studies discussed examine using nonlinear dynamics to model friction forces during welding and how ultrasonic treatment after thermal welding reduces stresses and improves joint strength. The objectives of ultrasonic metal welding are to increase strength, reliability and reduce residual stresses and deformations compared to conventional welding.
This document defines budgets and budgetary control. It explains that a budget is a financial plan for a future period, and may show expected income, expenses, and capital usage.

It concludes that preparation, implementation, reporting, and follow up action are all needed for an effective budgetary control system.
