Residual stresses are an inevitable result of the welded fabrication process of corrugated
steel webs (CSWs), resulting in structures with high and unpredictable stress fields, causing …

Residual stresses constitute an inevitable consequence of the most ordinary manufacturing
processes, leading to high and not easily foreseeable stress field within a component …

The distribution of temperature and then the distribution of residual stress and distortion in
the stiffened aluminum alloy Al6061-T6 plates under the metal inert gas (MIG) welding …

A deep knowledge of the production process is needed, in order to achieve quality and
safety requirements in a component. In this context, residual stresses play an important role …

A fatigue analysis on experimentally tested transverse fillet-welded non-load-carrying T-and
X-joints made of S960 and S1100 ultra-high-strength steel was carried out in the present …

This paper introduces a theoretical framework for the analysis and optimization of melting
processes that use focused moving heat sources. Specifically, we consider the Rosenthal …

Due to the low stiffness of thin-plate welded structure, the influence of welding effect on
fatigue evaluation of thin-plate welded structure cannot be ignored. Extruded stiffened plates …

Residual stresses can affect both the static strength and the fatigue endurance of welded
joints. Residual stresses can be assessed by numerical simulation; however, the simulation …

The welding process is the basic technique of joining in the shipbuilding industry. This
method generates welding distortions that cause a lot of problems during the manufacturing …

Related to weld quality, level of imperfections is limited which can result in the need of
grinding and repair welding. It results in material removal and additional heat cycles causing …
