Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on the latest results of research on the welding and additive manufacturing technology of advanced metal materials, including the microstructure, mechanical properties, and quality control of welding and additive manufacturing based on heat sources such as arcs, lasers, and electron beams.

The key areas of focus are new strengthening mechanisms, the relationship between microstructure and properties, new microstructure control technologies, process stability, and on-line defect detection methods.

The current Special Issue aims to explore the advanced welding and additive manufacturing of alloys and metals and study the basic principles of microstructure and property regulation. The articles presented in this Special Issue will address various topics, ranging from the exploration of advanced welding technologies to microstructure regulation and the performance improvement of alloys and metals.

In this study, an effective numerical model was developed for the calculation of the deformation of laser-welded 3 mm 304L stainless steel plates with different gaps (0.2 mm, 0.5 mm, and 1.0 mm). The welding deformation would become larger when the welding gaps [...] Read more.
In this study, an effective numerical model was developed for the calculation of the deformation of laser-welded 3 mm 304L stainless steel plates with different gaps (0.2 mm, 0.5 mm, and 1.0 mm). The welding deformation would become larger when the welding gaps increased, and the largest deformation values along the Z direction, of 4 mm, were produced when the gap value was 1.0 mm. A larger plastic strain region was generated in the location near the weld seam, since higher plastic deformation had occurred. In addition, the tensile stress model was also applied at the plastic strain zone and demonstrated that a larger welding gap led to a wider residual stress area. Based on the above results, inherent deformations for butt and corner joints were calculated according to inherent strain theory, and the welding formation for the complex structure was calculated with different gaps. The numerical results demonstrated that a larger deformation was also produced with a larger welding gap and that it could reach the highest value of 10.1 mm. This proves that a smaller welding gap should be adopted during the laser welding of complex structures to avoid excessive welding deformation. Full article
