The effect of heat on clay behaviour is characterized by non-linearity and irreversibility. Due to the complex influence of temperature, thermomechanical factors have to be taken into account for the numerical simulation of the behaviour of such materials. A cyclic thermo-viscoplastic model is devel

β¦ Synopsis
Welding is a very complex process where electrical energy and filler metal are transferred to a weldment via an electric are. Coupled electromagnetic, thermal, mechanical, and metallurgical processes occur in the heat affected zone (HAZ). Metallurgical processes: melting, solidification, and solid phase transformations as well as combustion are in the heart of this manufacturing technique. The modern approach to modelling of welding leads to two models: (i) thermo-mechanical process occurring in a viscoplastic body, (ii) thermo-mechano-metallurgical process in an inelastic body. Results are shown for a simple welding benchmark problem formulated for two thick plates.
