Welding is used in a wide range of heavy and light industry, construction and maintenance, including vehicle construction. Workers using welding processes are exposed to electromagnetic fields (EMF). The International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP) has published guidelines on limits of the exposure to static magnetic fields and on guidelines limiting the exposure to ti...

Research is connected with elaboration of the calculating module VarWELD, using MS Excel software, for item-by-item examination of various combinations of variable parameters of spot resistance welding as well as analysis of possible solutions for managing the characteristics of the process. Mentioned examination is one of the main stages of analogue modeling. Analogue modeling is new perspecti...

Spot welding is a critical joining process which presents specific challenges in early defect detection, has high rework costs, and consumes excessive amounts of materials, hindering effective, sustainable production. Especially automotive manufacturing, the source’s quality needs to be controlled increase efficiency performance production lines. Using data analytics, manufacturing companies ca...

Resistance spot welding (RSW) includes many variables that can influence the weld properties. The purpose of this study is to develop an analytical model for prediction of thermal history and weld microstructure in RSW and to find the most important process parameters that influence the weld microstructure. A one dimensional model is proposed for prediction about thermal history during cooling ...
