چکیده

A system is presented that allows the visualization of the whole welding process. Factors that can lead to bad welds can be monitored. Methods to optimize the welding process are outlined and a possible "on-line control" is discussed. In addition, schemes are presented for the analysis of the welding process to identify defects in the welding equipment that will cause faulty welds.

Analysis of Resistance Spot Welding Process Parameters Effect on the Weld Quality of Three-steel Sheets Used in Automotive Industry: Experimental and Finite Element Simulation

In the present research, the effects of spot-welding process parameters on the nugget diameter and electrode penetration depth of spot-welded joints were investigated. To achieve this, a spot-welded joint of three-thin sheet low carbon steels (same thicknesses of 0.8 mm) was simulated as an electerical-thermal-mechanical coupling of 3D finite element model. After validating the finite element s...

Evaluation of mechanical properties of nanostructured Al 6061 alloy weldment during resistance spot welding process

In this study, The Al 6061 alloy sheets were produced by Cryorolling process and then were welded by resistance spot welding method. In this regard, the solution treated Al 6061 alloy cryorolled subsequently up to 90% reduction in thickness to produce nanostructure alloy. The cryorolled sheets were then subjected to aging treatment (130˚C-30h) in order to obtain simultaneous strength and ductil...
