Experimental Studies of Welding Effects on Damping for Undersea Warfare Applications
ISBN: Binding: Kindle Edition Edition: Author(s): Agustin E. Carey Publisher: Number of Pages: 72
Damping in structures has historically been of great importance in nearly all branches of engineering endeavors and it also happens to be one of the most difficult parameters to predict The purpose of this research is to study the effects that welding has on damping Measurements and comparisons of the damping ratios of two welded stiffened plates two flat plates and one machined stiffened plate are undertaken The frequency response and natural frequencies of five steel structures are determined experimentally A finite element model is created for three of the structures to determine the natural frequencies and associated mode shapes The damping ratios are then determined using the half-power point method The results show that at frequencies less than 500 Hz welding tends to cause the damping ratio to increase The experimental and numerical results show that the mode shapes that experience the highest degree of stress at a weld are associated with the natural frequencies with the highest damping ratio These results may lend to better understanding of the effects of welding on damping and assist in obtaining better empirical approximations of damping for use in ship shock computer simulations
Effects of Welding on Energy Dissipation in a Watertight Bulkhead
ISBN: Binding: Kindle Edition Edition: Author(s): Jon S. Erskine Publisher: Number of Pages: 81
Surface combatants face a wide range of threats and perhaps the most destructive of these is the underwater explosion generated by a mine or a torpedo The shock wave generated by an underwater explosion can cause severe damage or even a catastrophic failure As the shock wave hits the ship its energy is transmitted through the structural members of the ship The purpose of this thesis is to examine how this energy is transmitted through the watertight bulkhead of a DDG and how the welded stiffeners affect the bulkheads energy damping properties To investigate the effects of the welding the bulkhead was modeled both as a finite element model and as a scaled physical model The modes and natural frequencies of the bulkhead were first calculated using PATRAN and NASTRAN Using a one half scale model the bulkhead was excited using random noise over a 250 Hz frequency span while measuring the accelerations at 60 points along the panel These measured accelerations were then used to calculate the frequency response of the bulkhead and the damping ratios as a function of frequency By plotting the damping ratios versus frequency for each measurement point on the bulkhead there can be a better understanding of how energy waves propagate through a welded structure

Resistance Welding: Fundamentals and Applications, Second Edition
ISBN: 1439853711 Binding: Hardcover Edition: 2 Author(s): Hongyan Zhang, Jacek Senkara Publisher: CRC Press Number of Pages: 456
Drawing on state-of-the-art research results Resistance Welding: Fundamentals and Applications Second Edition systematically presents fundamental aspects of important processes in resistance welding and discusses their implications on real-world welding applications This updated edition describes progress made in resistance welding research and practice since the publication of the first edition New to the Second Edition:
Significant addition of the metallurgical aspects of materials involved in resistance welding such as steels aluminum and magnesium alloys zinc and copper
Electric current waveforms commonly used in resistance welding including single-phase AC single-phase DC three-phase DC and MFDC
Magnesium welding in terms of cracking and expulsion
The effect of individual welding parameters
2-D and 3-D lobe diagrams
New materials for the ultrasonic evaluation of welds including A-scan B-scan and in-line A-scan
The book begins with chapters on the metallurgical processes in resistance spot welding the basics of welding schedule selection and cracking in the nugget and heat-affected zone of alloys The next several chapters discuss commonly conducted mechanical tests the monitoring and control of a welding process and the destructive and nondestructive evaluation of weld quality The authors then analyze the mechanisms of expulsiona process largely responsible for defect formation and other unwanted featuresand explore an often overlooked topic in resistance welding-related research: the influence of mechanical aspects of welding machines The final chapters explain how to numerically simulate a resistance welding process and apply statistical design and analysis approaches to welding research To obtain a broad understanding of this area readers previously had to scour large quantities of research on resistance welding and essential related subjects such as statistical analysis This book collects the necessary information in one source for students researchers and practitioners in the sheet metal industry It thoroughly reviews state-of-the-art results in resistance welding research and gives you a solid foundation for solving practical problems in a scientific and systematic manner
