Wire and arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) has proven that it can produce medium to
large components because of its high-rate deposition and potentially unlimited build size …

Friction stir welding is a relatively new solid-state joining technique which is widely adopted
in different industry fields to join different metallic alloys that are hard to weld by …

Parts manufactured by Wire and Arc Additive Manufacture (WAAM) can have significant
residual stress and distortion, as well as large grain sizes. To overcome these problems …

Wire+ arc additive manufacturing components contain significant residual stresses, which
manifest in distortion. High-pressure rolling was applied to each layer of a linear Ti–6Al–4V …

Wire and arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) is an emerging technology which has the
potential to significantly reduce material usage and manufacturing time through the …

Wire+ Arc Additively Manufactured components contain significant residual stresses that
manifest in distortion. Each layer of an additively manufactured wall was rolled with the aim …

The mechanisms of post-weld rolling and how it reduces and eliminates residual stress and
distortion are poorly understood. Finite element analysis was applied to two different …

Ultrasonic impact treatment (UIT) is a relatively novel technique applied to the toe of welded
joints to improve the fatigue life by changing the weld geometry and the residual stress state …

Residual stresses are very important in any joining process of materials since they act as pre-
stresses in the loading situation of the joint, thereby affecting the final mechanical …

Self-equilibrating residual stresses may occur in materials in the absence of external loading
due to internal strain inhomogeneity. While favourable distributions of residual stress can …
