Arc-welding based additive manufacturing techniques are attracting interest from the
manufacturing industry because of their potential to fabricate large metal components with …

Additive Manufacturing (AM) has the potential to completely reshape the manufacturing
space by removing the geometrical constraints of commercial manufacturing and reducing …

In automotive industry, thin plate parts are commonly used. During assembling process,
welding technology is usually employed because of high productivity. Welding distortion …

In the present study, different finite element (FE) models were prepared to investigate weld
induced residual stresses in thick multi-pass butt welded joint of SA516 Gr. 70 plates. Both …

Welding is a major manufacturing process that joins two or more pieces of materials together
through heating/mixing them followed by cooling/solidification. The goal of welding …

Residual stresses exist in all manufacturing processes which use heat and/or force such as
casting, forming, machining and welding. Sometimes they cause decrease in strength and …

Welding-induced distortion not only reduces largely manufacturing accuracy but also
decreases significantly productivity due to correction works. If welding distortion can be …

The state-of-the-art on arc welding research is considered, with unresolved questions and
future directions highlighted. Both diagnostics and modelling are discussed. The focus is on …

This study investigated the fatigue life of welded joints, in particular, the welds of the high-
strength steel S960 QL. The welds were created using unconventional technologies by …

When medium carbon steel or alloy steel with sufficient carbon equivalent is joined by fusion
welding process, solid-state phase transformation has significant influences on the formation …
