Course Overview

The purpose of this course is to give familiar with the concepts and terminology in welding engineering. Student will understand how welding design is built on a foundation of heat flow stress, structural analysis and fitness for services. In this course the students will learn the basic theory of various materials joining processes including arc, resistance, solid state, and high energy density welding.

Learning Achievement

1. Point out the basic terminology of welding engineering. 2. Design the size of influence area by welding and estimate stresses in that area. 3. Study and explain design concepts, failure criteria and inspection method in welding engineering appeared in latest literature.
