TLDR
The solution of a traveling distributed heat source on a semi-infinite plate provides information about both the size and the shape of arc weld pools as mentioned in this paper, and the results indicate that both welding process variables (current, arc length and travel speed) and material parameters (thermal diffusivity) have significant effects on weld shape.
Abstract
The solution of a traveling distributed heat source on a semi-infinite plate provides information about both the size and the shape of arc weld pools. The results indicate that both welding process variables (current, arc length and travel speed) and material parameters (thermal diffusivity) have significant effects on weld shape. The theoretical predictions are compared with experimental results on carbon steels, stainless steel, titanium and aluminum with good agreement. 25 references, 23 figures, 1 table.

Study of vibratory stress relief effect of quartz flexible accelerometer with FEA method

TL;DR: In this paper, a dynamic vibration analysis is carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of VSR process for laser spot welding and investigate the effect of vibration process factors on the residual stress distribution, the results show that vibration can decrease the welding residual stress and VSR with resonant frequency has better residual stress relief effect than that of non-resonant frequency.

A Study on Power-Controlled Wire-Arc Additive Manufacturing using a Data-driven Surrogate Model

TL;DR: The present work aims at introducing and implementing a novel temperature management approach by adjusting the weld-bead cross-section along with the welding power to reduce the heat accumulation in the WAAM process and efficiently manages the thermal input and reduces the need for pausing the process.

Effects of rescanning on heterogeneous microstructural control of 316L stainless steel fabricated by laser powder bed fusion

TL;DR: In this article , the effects of locally rescanning with varying processing parameters on sub-grain cell size refinement for 316L stainless steel (SS) was investigated. And the results showed that rescannning resulted in heterogeneous microstructure with coarse cell size of 0.84 μm and locally refined cell size, while maintaining a high level of densification (99.96 %).

A Forward Time Stepping Heat Conduction Model for Spot Melt Additive Manufacturing

TL;DR: The mathematical formulation and implementation of a forward time stepping (FTS) approach to an existing semi-analytic solution is provided and the result is that, for spot melts, the forward time-stepping model provides improvements in both speed and accuracy.

Heat treating and melting material with a scanning laser or electron beam

TL;DR: In this paper, a thermal analysis for laser heating and melting materials is derived for a Gaussian source moving at a constant velocity, where the resulting temperature distribution, cooling rate distribution, and depth of melting are related to the laser spot size, velocity, and power level.

Heat Intensity and Current Density Distributions at the Anode of High Current, Inert Gas Arcs

TL;DR: In this article, heat and current distributions at the anode of high current arcs in inert gas atmospheres were determined experimentally, and the experimental method consisted of splitting anode, measuring the heat flux and the current to one of the sections as a function of arc position relative to the splitting plane, and calculating therefrom the distribution functions.

Analysis of Electrode Phenomena in the High-Current Arc

TL;DR: In this article, the authors made an analysis of the phenomena at the electrodes of a high-current short-time arc and showed that the input power density to the anode spot is in the range 5×104 to 1×106 watts/cm2.

Convection in arc weld pools

TL;DR: In this paper, a mathematical model was developed to account for convection and temperature distributions in stationary arc weld pools driven by buoyancy, electromagnetic and surface tension forces, and it was shown that these forces dominate the flow behavior.

Effect of Selenium on GTAW Fusion Zone Geometry

C.R. Heiple, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, small additions of selenium to 21-6-9 stainless steel dramatically increase the depth/width ratio of bead-on-plate welds, which is consistent with a model for control of weld fusion zone geometry.
