Abstract
Welding is a reliable and efficient metal-joining process widely used in industries. Residual stresses are inherent and detrimental in welded structures. Researchers have developed many direct measuring techniques for welding residual stress. Intelligent techniques have been developed to predict residual stresses to meet the demands of advanced manufacturing planning. The existing tools are limited in application and need attention. This research paper details the development and use of a function-replacing hybrid for predicting the residual stress in butt-welding.
