Emission of gases and degradation volatiles from polymeric wood constituents in friction welding of wood dowels

Analysis of volatile compounds and gases emitted as smoke at the welding interface during rotational wood dowel welding of a hardwood (beech) and of a softwood (Norway spruce) has shown that the compounds in such a smoke are water vapour, CO₂, degradation compounds from wood polymeric carbohydrates and from amorphous lignin, as well as some volatile terpenes, these latter only for the softwood used, Norway spruce. The main carbohydrates contributing to the volatile compounds are xylans for beech and glucomannans for spruce. Numerous compounds, in very small proportions derived from the degradation and rearrangement reactions of lignin, have also been identified. The proportion of CO₂ emitted is very low, and neither CO nor methane is emitted due to the relatively low temperature of dowel welding. Experiments at temperature slightly higher than that of dowel welding but prolonged in time have shown that the main component of the smoke produced during welding appears to be water vapour.

The enclosure method for an inverse problem arising from a spot welding

A two dimensional version of a reconstruction problem of an unknown weld on the interface between two electric conductive plates is considered. It is assumed that the two plates have a same known isotropic homogeneous conductivity, and the line where the welding area is located is known. Under these assumptions, an explicit extraction formula of the location of the tips of the welding area on the line from a single set of an electric current density and the corresponding voltage potential on the boundary of the material formed by the plates is given. This result may have possibility of application to quality evaluation of spot welding fixation strength of a lamina. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Energy law preserving continuous finite element schemes for a gas metal arc welding system

In this paper a modifed continuous energy law was explored to investigate transport behavior in a gas metal arc welding(GMAW)system.The energy law equality at a discrete level for the GMAW system was derived by using the finite element scheme.The mass conservation and current density continuous equation with the penalty scheme was applied 10 improve the stability.According to the phase-field model coupled with the energy law preserving method,the GMAW model was discretized and a metal transfer process with a pulse current was simulated.It was found that the numerical solution agrees well with the data of the metal transfer process obtained by high-speed photography.Compared with the numerical solution of the volume of fuid model,which was widely studied in the GMAW system based on the finite element method Euler scheme,the energy law preserving method can provide better accuracy in predicting the shape evolution of the droplet and with a greater computing efficiency.     

Effect of surface preparation on the strength of vibration welded butt joint made from PBT composite

Vibration welding technique has been widely used to weld molded surfaces parts produced by injection or compression molding techniques. However, the majority of early studies used machined surfaces to eliminate the complication associated with molded surfaces. Different process parameters such as the welding pressure, frequency, and amplitude have been investigated to determine their optimal values that maximize the welding strength. However, some other parameters such as joint design and the welding interface preparation were leftover for real application test or for technology transfer studies. Most of molded parts from semi-crystalline materials and their composites usually have skin layer that was exposed to thermal history differs from that of the core. Moreover, the amount and the orientation of fibers in the skin layer differ from that of core and shell regions. Therefore, this work investigates and explores the effect of the molded surfaces with skin on tensile strength of vibration welded butt joints made from polybutylene terephthalate reinforced with 30% glass fiber (PBT GF30). The effect of fibers orientation on the welded joint strength has been also investigated.     

过渡层对锆/钢爆炸复合板剪切强度的影响

为了考察钛作为过渡层提高锆/钢复合板结合强度的有效性,同时给出合理的爆炸焊接碰撞参数,对双层锆/钢和三层锆/钛/钢进行了小倾角法爆炸焊接实验研究。借助金相显微技术测量了复合板结合界面的波形参数,采用光滑粒子动力学法模拟得到了不同位置的碰撞速度和碰撞角,并按照国家标准(GB/T 6396-2008)测量了复合板结合界面的爆炸态及退火态的剪切强度。结果表明:钛作为过渡层能够显著提高锆/钢界面的剪切强度;退火消除加工应力后,锆/钢及钛/钢结合面的剪切强度会有所降低;当锆/钛界面的碰撞速度为734~805 m/s,碰撞角为19.8°~20.8°,钛/钢界面的碰撞速度为803~904m/s,碰撞角为19.5°~20.5°时,锆/钛/钢三层复合板的锆/钛和钛/钢界面的剪切强度都能高于140 MPa。     

A model for resistance welding including phase transitions and Joule heating

In this paper, we introduce a new model for solid–liquid phase transitions triggered by Joule heating as they arise in the case of resistance welding of metal parts. The main novelties of the paper are the coupling of the thermistor problem with a phase‐field model and the consideration of phase‐dependent physical parameters through a mixture ansatz. The PDE system resulting from our modeling approach couples a strongly nonlinear heat equation, a non‐smooth equation for the the phase parameter (standing for the local proportion of one of the two phases) with a quasistatic electric charge conservation law. We prove the existence of weak solutions in the three‐dimensional (3D) case, whereas the regularity result and the uniqueness of solution is stated only in the two‐dimensional case. Indeed, uniqueness for the 3D system is still an open problem. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
