Abstract: Simulation of welding has advanced from the analysis of laboratory setups to real engineering applications during the last three decades. This development is outlined and the directions for future research are summarized in this review, which consists of three parts. The material modeling is maybe the most crucial and difficult aspect of modeling welding processes. The material behavior may be very complex for the large temperature range considered.

TL;DR: In this paper, the main emphasis is on thermal modelling and prediction of laser welding in metals, and a review is given over to the modelling of these processes where appropriate, where the time frame of the review is up to the year 2002.
Abstract: The main emphasis of this review is on thermal modelling and prediction of laser welding in metals. However as similar techniques are employed to model conventional welding processes such as arc, resistance and friction, as well as related processes such as alloying, cladding and surface hardening, part of this review is given over to the modelling of these processes where appropriate. The time frame of the review is up to the year 2002.

TL;DR: The range of scheduling mechanisms presented herein allows this type of exibility during code generation and their use on critical portions of code could create enhanced run-time performance for a wide variety of code.

Using methods suggested here, this complexity m a y be reduced or bounded by a c hosen amount of time. 3. The search capabilities of genetic algorithms could be used to generate better weightings on the list scheduling algorithm. As these will vary on a per-architecture basis, a suite of typical" programs could be compiled while changing the weights in the discriminating polynomial selection function. Those weights found to produce good results for the current machineeprogram combination could then be used for any program on that machine. This would also provide feedback to the machine designers as to which features have a direct bearing upon performance and which do not. Closing the loop that exists between hardware and software design will increase the speed of both. 6.4 Summary In summary, previous methods of local instruction scheduling were examined and found lacking. Several new approaches were discovered and developed to address speciic deeciencies uncovered. A wholly new method, applying genetic algorithms, was explored and found beneecial. The increasing complexity of machines mandate the strengthing of instruction scheduling; genetic algorithms are a method of achieving this. 116 6.3 Directions With the framework provided by this work, many i n teresting directions for future work exist. Three follow. 1. Software pipelining was not considered. Its ability to improve repetitive c o d e structure is impressive. Loops are important structures to optimize as more execution time will be spent in them compared to straight line code. Previous methods have used an unrolling technique combined with local compaction SDX86, MSDP86. Because of the power of the scheduling methods developed here, their use on critical portions of code could create enhanced run-time performance for a wide variety of code. Given a choice, critical sections" of code should be emphasized in the optimization process at the expense of less critical sections of code. The range of scheduling mechanisms presented herein allows this type of exibility during code generation. For example, another parameter used to decide the type of scheduling performed on a …

Abstract: In this paper, a computational model is developed to calculate the magnitude and distribution of residual stresses for multipass girth-butt welded pipes. The model consists of two parts, a temperature analysis model and a finite element stress analysis model. Elastic-plastic temperature dependent mechanical properties and unloading due to stress reversals are included in the model. While computational models for predicting residual stress distributions due to one- and two-pass welds have been developed, there are certain difficulties associated with predicting the behavior of multipass welds in an economical way. An approach for handling these types of problems is described. Residual stresses obtained with the model for a seven-pass weld and a thirty-pass weld are compared with residual stresses obtained from laboratory measurements. Good agreement is found between the computed and measured values of residual stresses for for both welds.
