7 Preface The main purpose of this book is to provide a unified and systematic continuum approach to engineers and applied physicists working on models of deformable welding material. The key concept is to consider the welding material as an thennodynamic system. Significant achievements include thermodynamics, plasticity, fluid flow and numerical methods. Having chosen point of view, this work does not intend to reunite all the information on the welding thermomechanics. The attention is focused on the deformation of welding material and its coupling with thermal effects. Welding is the process where the interrelation of temperature and deformation appears throughout the influence of thermal field on material properties and modification of the extent of plastic zones. Thermal effects can be studied with coupled or uncoupled theories of thermomechanical response. A majority of welding problems can be satisfactorily studied within an uncoupled theory. In such an approach the temperature enters the stress-strain relation through the thennal dilatation and influences the material constants. The heat conduction equation and the relations governing the stress field are considered separately. In welding a material is either in solid or in solid and liquid states. The flow of metal and solidification phenomena make the welding process very complex. The automobile, aircraft, nuclear and ship industries are experiencing a rapidly-growing need for tools to handle welding problems. The effective solutions of complex problems in welding became possible in the last two decades, because of the vigorous development of numerical methods for thermal and mechanical analysis. The book has been divided into four parts. Part I Fundamentals of Welding Thermomechanics is devoted to the description of the defonnation of the welding material. Both the Lagrangian and the Eulerian standpoints

8 x Theory of Thermo mechanical Processes in Welding are considered. The concept of stress is introduced. The derivations of the theorem of virtual work rate and the kinetic energy theorem are provided. A general thermodynamic framework for the formulation of all constitutive equations is given. In this framework the laws governing the heat flow are formulated. The background of plasticity in welding is introduced. Hardening and softening phenomena are refined in the global context of thermodynamics and the modeling of thermal hardening in welding is discussed. In Part II Numerical Solutions of Welding Problems all the constitutive models of the previous chapters are discussed extending wellestablished standard procedures for solid and liquid media. The numerical approach to thermo-elastic-plastic material model is discussed. The phasechange problems are analyzed. The numerical solution of fluid flow in welding is presented. Part III Heat Flow in Welding presents in details the solution of heat transfer equations under conditions of interest in welding. The restrictive assumptions will however limit the practical utility of the results. Nevertheless the results are useful in that they emphasize the variables involved and approximate the way in which they are related. In addition, such solutions provide the background for understanding more complicated solutions obtained numerically and provide guidance in making judgements. The numerical solutions of welding problems are focused on laser and electroslag welding. In Part IV Welding Stresses and Deformations coupled thermomechanical phenomena are discussed. First of all thermal stresses being the result of complex temperature changes and plastic strains in regions near the weld are analyzed. Deformations and residual stresses in welding structures are considered for chosen welding processes and geometry of elements. Cz~stochowa May 2004 Andrzej Sluzalec
