Abstract:

Welding is defined by the American Welding Society (AWS) as a localized coalescence of metals or non-metals produced by either heating of the materials to a suitable temperature with or without the application of pressure, or by the application of pressure alone, with or without the use of filler metal. Welding techniques are one of the most important and most often used methods for joining pieces in industry. Any information about the shape, size and residual stress of a welded piece is of particular interest to improve quality. In the recent years, the welded joints become the integral part of assemblies used in the industries. In fact in piping industries welded joints are crucial and prone to different types of loadings. Hence in such applications most of the failures are due to the failing of the welded joints. Hence a modern computational approach based on finite element analysis for strength assessment has been used in this dissertation work.
