A method of optimization of process parameters in Arc Welding has been discussed in this paper. The method of investigation is based on the numerical calculation of weld bead by a finite element method and non-linear optimization technique is applied to estimated the optimization process parameters from the numerical calculation. The common package program(ANSYS 4.4A) was used to obtain the process parameters for a thin plate arc welding (TIG, CO$_{2}$). The results on some test are satisfactory and the used method of this paper is a useful guide to the optimum welding condition.

최근 전세계적으로 유가 상승 및 배기가스 배출 저감과 관련된 각종 환경규제에 대응하기 위하여 선진 자동차회사들은 $CO_2$ 배출 저감 기술과 기존 내연기관 차량의 연비향상을 위해 엔진성능 개선, 구동시스템의 최적화, 차량 경량화, 공기저항 감소 등에 초점을 맞춰 차량의 연비향상과 배기가스 규제에 대응하고 있다. 특히, 자동차 중량의 30%를 차지하는 차체의 경량화는 엔진효율을 높여 자동차의 성능향상을 극대화시키고, 그로 인해 연비향상을 도모할 수 있으므로 환경오염 방지와 연료절감에 가장 적합하고 효과적인 방법이다. 이에 기존의 강재에 비해 비중이 낮으면서 유사한 강도와 내식성이 뛰어난 알루미늄 합금의 차체 적용에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 자동차 Door에 알루미늄 합금(Al 5052)의 적용 가능성을 판단하기 위해 반응표면분석법(Response surface methodology)을 이용하여 저입열 Pulse MIG 용접 공정변수를 최적화하였다. 첫째, 저입열 Pulse MIG 용접에서 용접 공정 변수(용접전압, 용접속도, Gap)의 변화가 비드 형상에 미치는 영향에 대해 평가하였다. 요인분석법을 이용하여 용접 공정 변수와 비드 형상 변수와의 주효과와 교호작용효과를 분석하였고, 이를 통해 비드 형상 변수에 영향을 크게 미치는 용접 공정변수를 선별하여 다중회귀분석을 통해 용접 공정 변수 변화에 따른 비드형상 예측 회귀모델을 제안하였다. 둘째, 자동차 Door 생산 현장에서 박판 알루미늄 합금 겹치기 용접 이음부의 0~1 mm 갭 발생에 대해 강건한 용접조건을 제시하기 위해 반응표면법(Response surface methodology)을 이용하여 저입열 Pulse MIG 용접 공정 변수를 최적화하였고, 그 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

Taking a view of joining by welding the IN713C to SCM440 and SCM415 steel in production of turbochargers, the frictin welding process may be utilized as a new approach for joining them of other conventional welding processes. It is because the friction welding has more technical and technical and economic advantages than the other welding processes. As this welding process has the characteristics such as curtaliment of production time and materials and cost reduction, etc.. So, this paper deals with determining the preper friction welding condition and analyzing various mechanical properties of friction welded joints of the super heat resisting steel to alloy stee(IN713C to SCM440 and SCM415). And the in-process real-time weld quality evaluation technique by acoustic emission during friction welding of IN713C to SCM440 and SCM415 steels with higher confidence and relibility has been much required even though it might be the first trial approach for developing it. Then, this first study aimed to develop the optimization of dissimilar friction welding of heat resisting steels (INC713 to SCM440, SCM415) for turbine, considering on strength and toughness.

In this study, GTAW was carried out on austenitic STS316 stainless steel. Overlay welding with the stellite-base filler metal was implemented using a double torch. The response variable was calculated on the measured Vickers hardness for process optimization using the Taguchi method and its response variable was then analyzed about effect on overlay welding characteristics. The optimal process design by the Taguchi method is extremely effective in the overlay welding process for the multiple response variables. In addition, the effects of contribution rate about each response variable was analyzed easily. The conditions of the optimal process were 105A, 18V, pre-heat treatment at $200^{\circ}C$, and post weld heat treatment at $100^{\circ}C$. The Vickers hardness of the specimens produced under the optimal condition of GTAW by the double torch was 8.19% higher than that by a single torch.

Production processes of double wall bellows can be roughly categorized into two steps. In the first step, inner and outer bellows are made of STS316L in austenite stainless steel due to their excellent formability and corrosion resistance. In the second step, the double wall bellows are manufactured using the welding method with both the inner and outer bellows. The microstructure and defects of each weldment are observed to ensure the reliability of bellows since weldment is a highly vulnerable part, which can crack and fracture when bellows are formed or used. In this study, optimum welding conditions were derived from the analysis of microstructure and inspection of weldment of bellows that were produced using various welding procedure. Moreover, the mechanical properties were evaluated through hardness measurement of substrate, weldment and the heat-affected zone.

In this study, optimization of the process parameters of the resistance spot welding of a sheet of aluminum-coated boron alloyed steel, 22MnB5, used in hot stamping has been performed by a Taguchi method to increase the strength of the weld joint. The process parameters selected were current, electrode force, and weld time. The heating temperature and heating time of 22MnB5 are considered to be noise factors. It was known that the variation in the thickness of the intermetallic compound layer between the aluminum-coated layer and the substrate, which influences on the formation of nugget, was generated due to the difference of diffusion reaction according to heating conditions. From the results of spot weld experiment, the optimum weld condition was determined to be when the current, electrode force, and weld time were 8kA, 4kN, and 18 cycles, respectively. The result of a test performed to verify the optimized weld condition showed that the tensile strength of the weld joint was over 32kN, which is considerably higher than the required strength, i.e., 23kN.

This paper presents the experimental examinations and statistical quantitative analysis of the correlation between the cumulative counts of acoustic emission(AE) during plastic deformation periods of the welding and the tensile strength and other properties of the bar-to-bar welded joints of O.D. 16mm shaft(SM40C) as well as the various welding variables. And this is a new approach which attempts finally to develop real-time quality monitoring system for friction welding. The results lead to a practical possibility of real-time quality control more than 100% joint efficiency showing good weld with no micro structural defects.
