“…As a particularity, Goldak modelled the heat flux in different ratios in front and in the rear of the thermal source. Other models for thermal sources were developed by Sabapathy et al [3] and Ravichandran et al [4]. Ueda and Yamakawa [5], Hibbitt and Marçal [6] could be considered pioneers in development of finite element method applicable in the welding process simulation field.…”

The thermal field has a major influence during the welding process. The heat transfer resulting from welding has an influence on the metallurgical and mechanical properties of steels and welded joints. The most affected regions are: fusion zone (FZ) and heat affected zone (HAZ) due to high temperatures to structural transformations of welded joints. The research is based on the theoretical investigations on high-temperature welding areas through MAG-M mechanized butt welding with solid wire of the naval high strength steel, EH 36. For theoretical research, a model with 3D finite elements was used. For the welded joint, the filler technique was used, which means the filler material is modelled with finite elements. The finite elements are activated when the heat flow passes through them.

“…They reported good quantitative agreement between predicted and experimental results on temperature and displacement, with a qualitative agreement on stresses. Thermal cycles and temperature distribution during the circumferential arc welding of a thin pipe were predicted by Ravichandran et al [4,5]. They also calculated the temperature distribution during butt welding of thin cylindrical pipes.…”

Manual metal arc welding of the thin sheet sidepanel subassemblies of a railway coach shell causes deformation on the exterior surface. Welding creates residual stresses and distortions because of the elastoplastic response of the sheet to the transient, localized thermal expansion and contraction. Various strategies minimize the distortion, but a basic understanding of the mechanism is required. The welding process has been mathematically modelled using a general-purpose finite element code ABAQUS. The transient temperature fields and the associated stress, strain and strain fields have been calculated by a coupled thermomechanical analysis. To improve the exterior appearance of the coach shell, a technique called the magnetic forming process has been proposed. This process is designed to restore the original geometry of the deformed sidepanel sheet. The effectiveness of this process has been studied in detail. The magnetic forming process, simulated to flatten and straighten the thin sheet, is calculated to yield good results.
