Finite Element Analysis of Weld Thermal Cycles Using ANSYS aims at educating a young researcher on the transient analysis of welding thermal cycles using ANSYS. It essentially deals with the methods of calculation of the arc heat in a welded component when the analysis is simplified into either a cross sectional analysis or an in-plane analysis. The book covers five different cases involving different welding processes, component geometry, size of the element and dissimilar material properties. A detailed step by step calculation is presented followed by APDL program listing and output charts from ANSYS.

Features:

Provides useful background information on welding processes, thermal cycles and finite element method

Presents calculation procedure for determining the arc heat input in a cross sectional analysis and an in-plane analysis

Enables visualization of the arc heat in a FEM model for various positions of the arc

Discusses analysis of advanced cases like dissimilar welding and circumferential welding

Includes step by step procedure for running the analysis with typical input APDL program listing and output charts from ANSYS.

About the Author

G. Ravichandran has had 37 years of experience with theWelding Research Institute which is affiliated to BHEL, Tiruchirappalli, India, and retired from WRI in 2017. His field of specialization is welding simulation using finite element method, prediction and control of distortion and residual stresses, design of static and fatigue loaded welded structures, experimental stress analysis etc. He obtained his PhD from Indian Institute of Technology, Madras in 1996 for his work on the “Analysis of axis shift distortion and residual stresses during circumferential welding of thin walled pipes”. He received the W H Hobart memorial award from American Welding Society in 1997 for his research paper “Prediction of Axis Shift Distortion during Circumferential Welding of Thin Pipes using the Finite Element Method”. He was a guest faculty for the National Institute of Technology during the years of service in WRI and handled classes for the post graduate program on welding engineering. After his retirement, he has joined NMAM Institute of Technology, Nitte, Karnataka as Professor Adjunct in Mechanical engineering department.

Store Description

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.
