商品簡介
Eight papers explore the actual and potential use of numerical simulation as support for designing and fabricating welded components, especially in relation to dimensional change, residual stress, and constraint problems that arise in welded components. Among the topics are welding residual stresses and distortions simulated by simplified methods, modeling residual stresses at girth welds in pipes, nickel- base superalloy welding, new capabilities of the software product SYSWELD, measuring and predicting residual stresses in thick-section steel welds, the friction stir welding of aluminum extrusions, the integrity of welded joints in pressure vessels, and finite element meshing methods to be used in welding simulation for ship structures.
