  2. 1. Laser-welded corrugated core steel sandwich bridge decks

    Author : Peter Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; fatigue; steel sandwich; Bridge deck; corrugated core; laser-weld;

    Abstract : Steel bridge decks are often used for applications when a lightweight structure is sought for. Conventional orthotropic steel decks suffers from drawbacks in several aspects, including high production costs and durability problems. READ MORE

  4. 2. High speed imaging analysis of laser welding

    Author : Ingemar Eriksson; William O’Neill; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Manufacturing Systems Engineering; Produktionsutveckling;

    Abstract : Laser welding is often considered a new and exotic manufacturing method even though it has been used in industrial applications for nearly fifty years. In the early years only a few special applications justified the high investment cost involved, but as the price of the laser sources has reduced, industrial interest in laser welding has increased.

  5. 3. Structural Design of Laser-Welded Sandwich Panels for Marine Applications

    Author : Hans Kolsters; KTH; []
    Keywords : Sandwich; Laser welding; Web; Core; Stiffness; Elastic Buckling; Ultimate strength; Finite element analysis; Mechanical testing; Optimisation.;

    Abstract : In shipbuilding the replacement of stiffened platestructures by laser-welded sandwich panels offers considerableadvantages for production as well as vessel operation. In viewof reduced weight and space requirements an area of particularinterest is the incorporation of an adhesively bonded core bywhich the stiffness and strength can be substantiallyincreased, and thermal-acoustic insulation can be integrated.

  6. 4. Laser welding and cladding : the effects of defects on fatigue behaviour

    Author : Md. Minhaj Alam; Stewart Williams; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Manufacturing Systems Engineering; Produktionsutveckling;

    Abstract : The thesis focuses on weld defects in laser processed materials (for laser welding, laser hybrid arc welding and laser cladding) and their effect on the fatigue life of components. Component properties were studied with particular emphasis on the macro and micro surface geometry, weld defects and clad defects. READ MORE
