چکیده

An adaptive control based on fuzzy logic has been implemented for Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). This adaptive controller eliminates the problems frequently experienced with traditional Automatic Voltage Control (AVC) systems, which do not adequately perform for all operational conditions because of the non-linear relationship between the arc voltage, current and arc length. This paper examines the differences between fuzzy logic control and adaptive fuzzy logic control of gas tungsten arc welding.

Weld Pool Oscillation as a Tool for Penetration Sensing during Pulsed GTA Welding

This paper deals with weld pool oscillation during pulsed gas tungsten arc (GTA) welding of unalloyed steel. Experiments were carried out in which the weld pool was triggered into oscillation during both the base time and the pulse time by short current peaks, superimposed on the pulsed welding current. The arc voltage was continuously measured during welding and the oscillation frequency spect...

Microstructure and mechanical characteristics of dissimilar aluminium alloy joining employing gas tungsten arc welding

Despite the increased use of aluminium alloys in several industries, their common concern is the difficulty of joining dissimilar alloys using welding techniques. Based on this, the primary purpose of this research is to assess the mechanical characteristics of dissimilar joining of heat-treatable 6061 and non-heat-treatable 5083 aluminium alloys by gas tungsten arc welding and to discover the ...
