Practical Aspects of Industrial Welding ProcessesEdition 1

This book covers various materials used by the fabrication industry for the manufacturing of process plant equipment and includes an in-depth review of welding processes widely used in the industry for joining and surfacing. It addresses the practical aspects of welding carbon, Cr–Mo steel, austenitic stainless steel, duplex and super duplex steels, and aluminium. Further, it covers various issues generally encountered during the welding of steels, such as the selection of suitable welding consumables and the good practices adopted by fabrication industries, and so on, along with some case studies.

Features:

• Focuses on the practical aspects of arc welding and on the processes
• Covers recent advances in the field along with addressing the theoretical, practical, and industrial aspects
• Reviews recent trends of implementing DOE techniques and meta-heuristics optimization techniques for setting of accurate parameters
• Contain an in-depth review of the most important advances in the welding process
• Reviews selection of suitable welding consumables and the good practices adopted by the fabrication industry including case studies.

This book is aimed at professionals and researchers in materials science and industrial manufacturing.
