...Michel Bellet; Makhlouf Hamide Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to present original methods related to the modeling of material deposit and associated heat sources for finite element simulation of gas metal arc welding (GMAW). Design/methodology/approach – The filler deposition...

...Andrzej J. Nowak; Ryszard A. Białecki; Gustav Amberg; Minh Do‐Quang Purpose In welding there is an intricate coupling between the composition of the material and the shape and depth of the weld pool. In certain materials, the weld pool may not penetrate the material easily, so that it is difficult...

...Nilanjan Chakraborty; Suman Chakraborty; Pradip Dutta In this paper, we present a modified k‐ε model capable of addressing turbulent weld‐pool convection in the presence of a continuously evolving phase‐change interface during a gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) process. The phase change...
