SPOT WELDING RESIDUAL STRESSES ASSESSMENT USING NONLINEAR NUMERICAL TECHNIQUE

A description is given of the resistance spot welding process in terms of internal behavior of the weld as welding takes place. Heat input due to spot welding of steel sheet plate causes temperature gradient in the parent metal. After cooling, residual stresses appear around the welding zone reduci...
