Cold Crack Prediction In GMAW

The book "Cold crack prediction in GMAW" is a valuable resource for welding engineers, researchers, and students working in the field of gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and high strength low alloy (HSLA) steels. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the factors influencing the occurrence of cold cracks in HSLA 950A steel during GMAW, and presents a predictive model for cold crack formation.
The book discusses the mechanism of cold cracking and the factors that affect its occurrence in GMAW of HSLA 950A steel, including the welding parameters, material properties, and microstructure. The author presents a detailed analysis of the effects of welding parameters such as welding current, voltage, and travel speed, and material properties such as yield strength and toughness, on cold crack formation.
The book also describes the development of a predictive model for cold crack formation in GMAW of HSLA 950A steel, based on a combination of statistical analysis and artificial neural network (ANN) modeling. The model takes into account the effects of welding parameters, material properties, and microstructure on cold crack formation, and can be used to optimize welding parameters to minimize the risk of cold cracking.
Overall, "Cold crack prediction in GMAW" is an essential reference for welding engineers and researchers interested in the prediction and optimization of cold crack formation in GMAW of HSLA 950A steel. The author's expertise and extensive research experience in the field are evident in the clarity and depth of the content presented in the book.
