Quality estimation of the weld has been one of the important issues in RSW which is a main process of the sheet metal fabrication in auto-body industry. It was well known that among the various welding process variables, dynamic resistance has a close relation with nugget formation. In this study, a new quality estimation algorithm is developed with the primary dynamic resistance measured at welding machine timer. For this, Back propagation algorithm of neural network is used.

The increasing interest in the corrosion properties of weld joints in the corrosive environment is placing stringent demands on the manufacturing techniques and performance requirements, and the manufacture employs the high quality and efficiency welding process to produce welds. Welding plays an important role in the fabrication of chemical plants, nuclear power plant, ship construction, and this has led to an increasing attention to the corrosion resistant weld joints. This paper covers a recent technical trends of welding technologies for corrosion resistance properties including the COMPENDEX DB analysis of welding materials, welding process, and welding fabrications.

Applicability of laser micro welding process to the fabrication of medical devices was investigated. Austenitic stainless steel wire (SUS304) was spot melted and crosswise welded, which is one of the most possible welding process for the fabrication of medical devices, by using a Nd-YAG laser. Effects of welding parameters on the microstructure, tensile strength and corrosion resistance were discussed. In the spot melting, melted metal width decreased with decreasing the input energy and pulse duration. Controlling the laser wave to reduce laser noise which occurred in the early stage of laser irradiation made reasonable welding condition wider in the welding condition of small pulse duration such as 2ms. The microstructure of the melted metal was a cellular dendrite structure and the cell size of the weld metal was about 0.5~3.5 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Tensile strength increased with the decrease of the melted metal width and reached to a maximum about 660MPa, which is comparable with that for the tempered base metal. Even by immersion test at 318K for 3600ks in quasi biological environment (0.9% NaCl), microstructure of the melted metal and tensile strength hardly changed from those for as melted material. In the crosswise welding, joints morphologies were classified into 3 types by the melting state of lower wire. Fracture load increased with input energy and melted area of lower wire, and reached to a maximum about 80N. However, when input energy was further increased and lower wire was fully melted, fracture load decreased due to the burn out of weld metal.

Since the preflex beam is fabricated through welding, the pre-compressive stresses that should occur over the concrete pier are diminished by the welding residual stresses. Therefore welding residual stresses must be relieved during the fabrication. Therefore, the analysis and examination of the accurate welding residual stress distribution characteristics are necessary. In this study, accurate distribution of welding residual stress of the preflex beam is analyzed by the finite element method, using 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional elements. Further, the thermo-mechanical behavior of the preflex beam is also studied. After the finite element analysis, real distribution of welding residual stress is measured using the sectioning method, and then is compared with the simulation results. The distribution of welding residual stress by finite analysis agreed well with the experimental results.

Longitudinal deformation is produced by fillet welding during the fabrication of built-up beams and decreases productivity and quality because it needs an extra correcting process. The deformation is caused by welding moment, which is the value multiplied the welding shrinking farce by the distance from the neutral axis. This welding moment can be offset by generating a moment in the same magnitude and in an opposite direction by induction heating. The location and quantity of the induction heating are decided via experiments and simple equations. This study, first, clarifies the creation mechanism of the longitudinal deformation with FEM analysis. Then, we presents the preventive method of this deformation by induction heating basing on the mechanism and verifies its validity through analysis and experiments.

In the fabrication of welded built-up beams, longitudinal deformation occurs due to welding, and this obstructs improvement of productivity and quality. In this study, to estimate the deformation due to welding, a simplified thermal elasto-plastic analysis method is proposed and verified by experiments. From the results of the simplified analysis, it is clarified that deformation coefficients defined in this study are the function of fabrication parameters. Based on this simplified analysis, a method to simulate the fabrication procedures for the built-up beams can be developed.

Requirements to fabrication processes for arc welding of highly loaded thick-walled joint and problems of research and development in term s of the tendency for the modern aircraft structure development are outlined. A justified, choice of the development line of the new promising welding processes for solution of these problems is presented. A complex of new welding processes and technologies for making highly reliable joints with different thickness (up to 120 mm and more) and length of weld (up to 0.1 m; 0.1-0.5 m and more than 0.5 m) has bee developed. It is shown that the possibility to control the heat flow distribution over the groove surface of the welded joints provides for improved reliability. The new welding processes are equipment are effectively used in serial production of the Mykoyan md Sukhoi supersonic aircrafts as well as in AN-124 Ruslan and AN-225 Mriya wide body aircrafts.

최근 국내외적으로 환경규제가 강화되면서 소형선의 경우 FRP선의 폐선처리가 문제시되면서 알루미늄선에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 이러한 알루미늄선의 건조는 철강재 등 여러 재료에 비해 알루미늄은 비강도가 높아 경량화에 의한 고속화가 가능하고 높은 내식성에 의한 유지보수가 용이하며, 폐선시 재활용이 가능하여 환경 친화적이라는 이점이 있기 때문이다.(중략)
