Numerical Analyses in the Modelling of Spot Resistance Welding Processes
Journal Title: Biuletyn Instytutu Spawalnictwa - Year 2017, Vol 61, Issue 5
Abstract
The article presents the basics of the modelling of spot resistance welding processes, describes mechanisms to be taken into consideration in relation to numerical analyses of the above-named processes, briefly describes their mutual correlations and presents a simple example of the two-sided single spot welding of two steel plates demonstrating the vast range of analyses offered by a SYSWELD state-of-the-art software programme. The foregoing is of great importance during production where, e.g. because of manufacturing continuity, it is not possible to perform related tests. This article aims to present the new possibilities addressed to design engineers and technologists and offered by the cutting-edge FEM-based software programme for numerical analyses of welding processes and heat treatment.

Analysis of Low-Amplitude Indications in Ultrasonic Tests of Thick-Walled MAG-Welded Butt Joints
The article presents an attempt at the clarification of low-amplitude indications, i.e. below the level of assessment, frequently detected in ultrasonic tests of welded joints. The above-named indications, non-evaluable...
DIN 2304 – Quality requirements for adhesive bonding processes
Today’s adhesives are high quality products. Their proper use normally leads to a zero-‑defect- production. If bonding failures nevertheless occur, more than 90% these failures result from failures in the adhesive bondin...
Changes in the Geometrical Shape of a Liquid Metal Pool in Relation to a Heat Input during a Welding Process
The article aims to present a number of factors affecting the geometrical shape of a liquid metal pool when making welded joints, i.e. factors increasing or decreasing a heat input including the density and efficiency of...
