Controlling the Width of Weld Bead from the Weld Pool Using Machine Vision and Artificial Neural Network

Prediction of Weld Width of Shielded Metal Arc Weld under Magnetic Field using Artificial Neural Networks

I. Abstract: The prediction of the optimal weld bead width is an important aspect in shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process as it is related to the strength of the weld. This paper focuses on investigation of the development of the simple and accurate model for prediction of weld bead width of butt joint of SMAW process. Artificial neural networks technique was used to train a program in C++...

scour modeling piles of kambuzia industrial city bridge using hec-ras and artificial neural network

today, scouring is one of the important topics in the river and coastal engineering so that the most destruction in the bridges is occurred due to this phenomenon. whereas the bridges are assumed as the most important connecting structures in the communications roads in the country and their importance is doubled while floodwater, thus exact design and maintenance thereof is very crucial. f...

The Physics of Weld Bead Defects

assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...

A compact vision sensor for weld pool surface sensing

The purpose of vision-based sensing devices in the welding industry is to electronically replicate the role of a skilled welder and emulate the human eye with a light-sensing device such as camera and the human brain with a computer algorithm that interprets the images. Just as an optical feedback from human eye guides the human welder, optical feedback in this electronic system would be used t...
