In this research longitudinal shrinkage of two steel plates with identical thickness that are joint together through butt welding and another steel plate with bead welding. This study begins withthe introduction of a model, in which the thermoelastoplastic zones near the weld line is simulated with a thermoelastoplastic flat bar, and full-elastic areas beyond the weld line is simulated with a f...

iii Abstract: High manganese TWIP (TWinning Induced Plasticity) steels are particularly attractive for automotive applications because of their exceptional properties of strength combined with an excellent ductility. However, as austenitic steels, they appear to be sensitive to liquid zinc embrittlement during welding, the liquid zinc arising from the melted coating due to the high temperatures...

This paper addresses intelligent techniques for the quality control of the pulsed gas tungsten arc welding process for butt joints, and it is a development to Ref. 1. Because there exist some important differences in butt joint welding and bead-on-plate welding, the modeling and control scheme in Ref. 1 does not completely fit for butt joint welding. In this paper, the differences between the t...

To satisfy the need of polymer connection in lightweight automobiles, a study on laser transmission spot welding using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is conducted by using an Nd:YAG pulse laser. The influence of three variables, namely peak voltages, defocusing distances and the welding type (type I (pulse frequency and the duration is 25 Hz, 0.6 s) and type II (pulse frequency and the duration...

Background: AA2519-T87 is a new armour grade aluminium alloy employed in the fabrication of light combat military vehicles. Joining of this material using fusion welding processes, results in the formation of solidification defects like porosity, alloy segregation and hot cracking. In order to overcome the solidification related problems, solid state welding processes such as friction stir weld...

in the present research, friction stir welding (fsw) process was used for butt joining of pure copper plate to 316l stainless steel plate. mechanical properties and microstructural characteristics of the joint were evaluated by microhardness and tensile tests as well as optical and scanning electron microscope (sem). it was found that microstructure of the weld nugget (wn) has fine grains where...

The locking compression plate fixation treatment for the unstable sacral fractures is simple and effective, with less trauma and complications. Some locking compression plate parts have been made of high-strength Plate manufactured by hot stamping process since the demand for lightweight biomedical materials. Finite Element (FE) method of One-Step inverse forming based on deformation theory is ...
