New developments in advanced welding
(ISBN-13: 978-1-85573-970-3; ISBN-10: 1-85573-970-4)
Recent developments in high-technology areas have significantly transformed the
welding industry. Automation, computers, process control, sophisticated scientific
instruments and advanced processing methods are all common in the modern industry.
Today's engineers and technologists have to support complex systems and apply
sophisticated welding technologies. This comprehensive new book discusses the changes
in advanced welding technologies preparing the reader for the modern industry.
Processes and mechanisms of welding residual stress and distortion
(ISBN-13: 978-1-85573-771-6; ISBN-10: 1-85573-771-X)
Measurement techniques for characterisation of residual stress and distortion have
improved significantly. More importantly the development and application of computa-
tional welding mechanics have been remarkable. Through the collaboration of experts,
this book provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject. It develops theoretical
treatments on heat transfer, solid mechanics and materials behaviour that are essential for
understanding and determining welding residual stress and distortion. It outlines the
approach for computational analysis that engineers with sufficient background can follow
and apply. The book will be useful for advanced analysis of the subject and provides
examples and practical solutions for welding engineers.
Cumulative damage of welded joints
(ISBN-13: 978-1-85573-938-3; ISBN-10: 1-85573-938-0)
Fatigue is a mechanism of failure that involves the formation of cracks under the action of
different stresses. To avoid fatigue it is essential to recognise at the design stage that the
loading is such that fatigue may be a possibility and to design the structure with inherent
fatigue strength. However, fatigue strength is not a constant material property. It may be
assessed by fracture mechanics, but such characteristics are based on quantitative analysis
and mere assumption. This book is primarily concerned with fatigue under variable
amplitude loading, unlike most tests performed under constant loads.
