The welding process is a nonlinear phenomenon in nature which leads to deformation and residual stresses in weldments. To overcome the structural changes in the weldments the computational packages can be effectively used for analyzing the changes in its life. Inconel superalloys have excellent mechanical properties and are used in the industrial applications. The present simulation is carried out for single pass butt-joint. Simulation studies are used for effective selection of process parameters for improving mechanical properties in the weld structures. In this work, coupled thermo-mechanical simulation process was carried out for predicting the temperatures, distortion and residual stress distribution in the weldments using Finite element analysis at the transverse direction on the welded surface.

Residual stress affect the lifetime of weldments directly. Temperature Generated from the welding process is the major reason that influences the microstructure and mechanical properties of the metal weldments. Therefore it is necessary to simulate the temperature field for optimizing the structure of weldments. In this work the three-dimension finite element analysis software SYSWELS was used to simulate T-type tube, and carried on a detailed analysis of temperature field and residual stress in cool process of weld.

This paper presents the results of studying friction stir butt welding of commercial pure copper plates using both experimental and finite element analysis methods. The experimental work consisted of making a butt joint to 4 mm copper plates using friction stir welding process at constant rotational speed of the pin tool to evaluate the effect of welding speed on weld quality. Weld quality was evaluated by the joints tensile strength, micro hardness, as well as evolution of the developed microstructure across the welding zone. A coupled Eulerian Lagrangian (CEL) finite element (FE) model had been developed to simulate the friction stir butt welding process, and predict the temperature distributions across the weld, as well as developed welding stresses. Axial load and temperature measurements results from the experiments have been used to validate the finite element model.

The welding H-section beam has good mechanical properties with its superior structure. So they become the main components of steel structure and have been widely used. In this paper, the welded H-section beam is used as the research object. The finite element simulation model is established. The heat source parameters are determined. The deformation of the steel due to the welding process is studied. The results show that the bottom plate and the bottom plate inward bending is about 2.32mm cause by welding process. The residual stress can reach 400MPa.

Metal inert gas arc welding process was implemented to join 6063T6 wrought alloy and ADC12 die-casting alloy using ER4047 filler metal. The microstructure of the weld seam and weld interface was investigated. The bonding strength of the butt joints was tested by Charpy U-notch impact test and tensile test. The results showed that a sound welding butt joint with finely silicon particles and excellent mechanical properties was formed, and the size of the silicon particles was nearly 2 μm. Compared with 6063T6 wrought alloy, the impact absorbing energies and the tensile strengths of the butt joint were higher and reached 1.173 kJ/cm2 and 205 MPa, respectively, and the fractures of all tensile specimens occur at the 6063T6 aluminum.

AbstractTrailing intensive cooling with liquid nitrogen has successfully applied to friction stir welding of 2 mm thick 2060 Al-Li alloy. Welding temperature, plastic strain, residual stress and distortion of 2060 Al-Li alloy butt-joint are compared and discussed between conventional cooling and trailing intensive cooling using experimental and numerical simulation methods. The results reveal that trailing intensive cooling is beneficial to shrink high temperature area, reduce peak temperature and decrease plastic strain during friction stir welding process. In addition, the reduction degree of plastic strain outside weld is smaller than that inside weld. Welding distortion presents an anti-saddle shape. Compared with conventional cooling, the reductions of welding distortion and longitudinal residual stresses of welding joint under intense cooling reach 47.7 % and 23.8 %, respectively.

The proposed finite element analysis (FEA) model was constructed using FEA simulation software, ANSYS program, for determining effects of corrosion fatigue (CF) from TIG welding process on AISI 304 stainless steel workpiece. The FEA model of TIG welding process was developed from Goldak's double ellipsoid moving heat source. In this paper, the residual stress results obtained from the FEA model were consistent with results from the X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. The residual stress was further used as an input in the next step of corrosion fatigue analysis. The predictive CF life result obtained from the FEA CF model were consistent with the value obtained from stress-life curve (S-N curve) from the reference literaturature. Therefore, the proposed FEA of CF model was then used for predicting the corrosion fatigue life on TIG welding workpiece, the results from the model showed the corrosion fatigue life of 1,794 cycles with testing condition of the frequency ( f ) = 0.1 Hz and the equivalent load of 67.5 kN (equal to 150 MPa) with R = 0.25.

Welding is one of the most used joining methods in the ship industry. However, residual stresses are induced in the welded joints due to the rapid heating and cooling leading to inhomogenously distributed dimensional changes and non-uniform plastic and thermal strains. A number of factors, such as welding speed, boundary conditions, weld geometry, weld thickness, welding current/voltage, number of weld passes, pre-/post-heating etc, influence the residual stress distribution. The main aim of this work is to estimate the residual stresses in welded joints through finite element analysis and to investigate the effects of boundary conditions, welding speed and plate thickness on through the thickness/surface distributions of residual stresses. The welding process is simulated using 3D Finite element model in ABAQUS FE software in two steps: 1. Transient thermal analysis and 2. Quasi-static thermo-elasto-plastic analysis. The normal residual stresses along and across the weld in the weld tow region are found to be significant with nonlinear distribution. The residual stresses increase with the increase in the thickness of the plates being welded. The nature of the normal residual stress along the weld is found to be tensile-compressive-tensile and the nature of normal residual stress across the weld is found to be tensile along the thickness direction.

The demand for lighter materials with suitable mechanical properties and a high resistance to corrosion has been increasing in the industries. Therefore, aluminum appears as an alternative due to its set of properties. The aim of this work was to evaluate residual stress levels and mechanical properties of welded joints of Aluminum-Magnesium alloy AA 5083-O using the Friction Stir Welding process. For mechanical characterization were performed a uniaxial tensile test, Vickers hardness, bending test and, finally, the determination of residual stresses. It was concluded that welding by FSW process with an angle of inclination of the tool at 3o, established better results due to better mixing of materials. The best results of tensile strength and a lower level of residual stresses were obtained using a tool rotation speed of 340 RPM with welding advance speed of 180 mm/min and 70 mm/min.
