Three Day (10.09.09 – 12.09.09) Short Term CEP course on“Computational Modeling of Welding Processes”
Introduction
The finite element method (FEM) has now become an important tool for modeling heat transfer, fluid flow, and thermal-mechanical stresses in welding processes. Major outputs of these models include weld geometry, weld thermal cycle and cooling rate, and, distortion and residual stresses experienced by the
weld joint for a given set of process and material parameters. However, computed results rarely agree with experimental results and thus, such models, although emerging as popular design route, lack reliability. A recourse is thus to aim at an integrated approach such that the process models can learn to handle the
uncertainties in modeling calculations and in turn, help in providing reliable computed results. The present course will provide a basic understanding on
  • How to develop FEM based process models in fusion welding using commercial software as well as in indigenous manner,
  • How to handle heat sources in modeling welding processes,
  • What are the uncertainties in such process models and how can they
    influence the reliability of computed results,
  • How to make process models more reliable, and lastly,
  • How such models can help in design for welding processes.
