   Abstract : This investigation is devoted to the study of welding and its effect on the workpiece, focusing on the thermo and fluid dynamical phenomena occuring during a autogenous or nonautogenous arc fusion welding process. Its aim is to simulate the behaviour of the weld pool and analyze the consequence of the solid-liquid phase change, thus obtaining a methodology for predicting the appearance of weld defects related to solidification and cooling.

4. 2. Computational weld mechanics : Towards simplified and cost effective FE simulations

   Author : Ayjwat Awais Bhatti; Zuheir Barsoum; Lennart Josefson; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Vehicle and Maritime Engineering; Farkostteknik;

   Abstract : It is the demand of the world’s ever increasing energy crisis to reduce fuel consumption wherever possible. One way of meeting this demand is by reducing the weight of a structure by replacing thick plates of low strength steel with thin plates of high strength steel in the structure. READ MORE

5. 3. Mechanical Properties of Resistance Spot Welds in Lightweight Applications

   Author : Davood Afshari; Zuheir Barsoum; Arne Melander; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Spot Weld; Aluminum alloy; Mechanical Properties; Finite Element; SRA - Production; SRA - Produktion;

   Abstract : This licentiate thesis is concerned with residual stresses in aluminum alloy 6061-T6 resistance spot welded joint. Several topics related to mechanical strength of welded structures are treated such as; nugget size and microhardness and microstructures of weld zone and their influence on mechanical strength of welded structure, failure load measurement using tensile-shear test, resistance spot welding simulation, residual stress measurement by X-ray diffraction method and analysis effect of welding parameters on the mechanical strength and the residual stresses.

6. 4. Modelling microstructure evolution of weld deposited Ti-6Al-4V

   Author : Corinne Charles; Högskolan Väst; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; metal deposition; Ti-6Al-4V; microstructure modelling; titanium alloy; Finite Element Method; Johnson-Mehl-Avrami; RTMwD; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Manufacturing and materials engineering; Produktions- och materialteknik; Material Mechanics;

   Abstract : The microstructure and consequently the mechanical properties of titanium alloys are highly dependent on the temperature history endured by the material. The manufacturing process of metal deposition induces repetitive cooling and heating in the material determining a specific microstructure. READ MORE
