Studies on the Shrinkage and Residual Welding Stress of Constrained Fundamental Joint

Part I Effects of Rod Diameter, Welding Direction, Weaving Motion, Peening and Type of Electrode on the Transverse Shrinkage

Abstract

This report is the first part of serial experiements which are being made to survey the effects of welding procedures on the shrinkage, distortion and residual stress of welded joint.
