Descrizione articolo

Riassunto

Computational Welding Mechanics (CWM) provides an important technique for modeling welding processes. Welding simulations are a key tool in improving the design and control of welding processes and the performance of welded components or structures. CWM can be used to model phenomena such as heat generation, thermal stresses, and large plastic deformations of components or structures. It also has a wider application in modeling thermomechanical and microstructural phenomena in metals.

This important book reviews the principles, methods, and applications of CWM. The opening chapters discuss the physics of welding before going on to review modeling methods and options as well as validation techniques. Later chapters review applications in areas such as fatigue, buckling, and deformation, improved service life of components, and process optimization. There is software available from the author which explores CWM more in depth through illustrations of some of the numerical methods.
