Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recently, welding processes have made rapid progress in various industrial areas. New welding methods, techniques, and many auxiliary tools and instruments are presented. Their modeling and mechanism analysis involve a large number of schemes. By modeling using proper mathematical tools, detailed mechanism analyses can be conducted, which are effective tools to facilitate new welding techniques.

We welcome any new techniques and methods regarding the welding process, such as welding processes between dissimilar metals or metals and new compound materials. In addition, any auxiliary tools, such as ultrasonic assistance, external magnetic assistance, or a combination of two or more welding techniques, are strongly welcome. We believe that this new Special Issue will be an effective platform to present new progress in the field of welding.

The aim of this work is to describe a reliable methodology for determining parameters of a material model suitable for implementation in a welding simulation using the finite element method (FEM). The adopted methodology employs a multi-scale approach integrating a microstructure evolution model, a representative volume element (RVE) calibrated through experimental methods, including a thermal–mechanical simulator, and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) experiments. The result is a complete material model, which covers thermal, mechanical and metallurgical material models for SAF2507 (EN 1.4410), that shows promising results and was successfully implemented in finite element (FE) code. A direct comparison of experimental and calculated results shows a deviation of up to 12% for the phase fraction of austenite and 25% for the mean grain diameter of ferrite. Full article
