Recommendations for Improved Welding Procedures for Thick Steel Plates Through Thermo-Mechanical Analysis
Welding of steel plates is accompanied by residual stresses that increase as the constraint provided by the welded components becomes greater. Consequently, crack initiation has been reported after welding thick plates due to the high residual stresses dev ...
2019Influence of the optical measurement technique and evaluation approach on the determination of local weld geometry parameters for different weld types
Alain Nussbaumer, Martin Antonio René Garcia
The joining by welding processes of components is usually related to the creation of additional notches and geometrical peculiarities. Multiple investigations have shown that a clear correlation between the local weld geometry and the fatigue life of welde ...
2019Fatigue Study of the Linthkanal-Brücke
As fatigue cracks were discovered under the bridge deck of the 48 years old railway bridge Linthkanal-Brücke, located near the Ziegelbrücke town in Switzerland, a few studies were conducted to understand the mechanism behind the cracks formation. However, ...
2018Design guidelines for remote laser welding in automotive assembly lines
Ian Anthony Stroud, Jumyung Um
Remote laser welding which has benefits for both productivity and energy saving is receiving increased attention for automotive assembly lines. Introducing this innovative equipment requires a redesign process for assembly elements, for example to substitu ...
Springer London Ltd2017Robotic Assistance by Impedance Compensation for Hand Movements While Manual Welding
Aude Billard, Mustafa Suphi Erden
In this paper, we present a robotic assistance scheme which allows for impedance compensation with stiffness, damping, and mass parameters for hand manipulation tasks and we apply it to manual welding. The impedance compensation does not assume a preprogra ...
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers2016Hand Impedance Measurements During Interactive Manual Welding With a Robot
Aude Billard, Mustafa Suphi Erden
This paper presents a study of hand impedance measurements comparatively across ten professional and 14 novice manual welders, when they are performing tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding interactively with the KUKA lightweight robot arm (LWR). The results sh ...
