Summary

The underwater welding problem has been formulated for the thermoelastic body as the sequence of the thermal free-boundary problem and the thermomechanical contact problem. The thermal free-boundary problem is discussed due to accounting for phase transformations. The contact problem is considered to establish interactions between a weld and elements of weldment and residual stresses inside the weldment.

Übersicht

Das Unterwasser-Schweißen wird als Folge eines thermischen Problems für einen thermoelastischen Körper mit freien Oberflächen und eines thermomechanischen Kontaktproblems formuliert. Das thermische Problem mit freien Oberflächen wird zwecks Berücksichtigung von Phasentransformationen erörtert. Das Kontaktproblem wird behandelt, um Wechselwirkungen zwischen Schweißnaht, verschweißten Teilen und Eigenspannungen zu ergründen.
