A real-time simulation enables process control through the combination of process monitoring and automated feedback, which increases the flexibility and quality of a process. Typically, before producing a whole additive manufacturing structure, a simplified experiment in the form of a beadon-plate experiment is performed to get a first insight into the process and to set parameters suitably. In this work, a reduced order model for the transient thermal problem of the bead-on-plate weld simulation is developed, allowing an efficient model calibration and control of the process. The proposed approach applies the proper generalized decomposition (PGD) method, a popular model order reduction technique, to decrease the computational effort of each model evaluation required multiple times in parameter estimation, control, and optimization. The welding torch is modeled by a moving heat source, which leads to difficulties separating space and time, a key ingredient in PGD simulations. A novel approach for separating space and time is applied and extended to 3D problems allowing the derivation of an efficient separated representation of the temperature. The results are verified against a standard finite element model showing excellent agreement. The reduced order model is also leveraged in a Bayesian model parameter estimation setup, speeding up calibrations and ultimately leading to an optimized real-time simulation approach for welding experiment using synthetic as well as real measurement data.

While the driving forces are known froma qualitative perspective, the quantitative assessment of the crucial parameters is not a trivial task. Therefore, herein, a welding-specific methodology to utilize life cycle assessment as a tool for evaluating the environmental impact of fusion welding processes is presented. In this context, two welding processes, resistance spot welding and laser beam welding, are analyzed for two different use cases. These comprise the welding of shear test specimens and a cap profile made of electrogalvanized sheets of DC 05þ ZE (1.0312) as representative of an automotive application. For both welding processes, the main influences on the resulting environmental impact categories are evaluated and compared. The requirements for ecological efficient welding processes are discussed and implemented.

As cooling rate increased, the predominantly acicular ferrite in Nb weld metal (WM) is substituted by bainite, with a consequence of obvious hardness increase, but in Ti WM, no great variation of acicular ferrite at all cooling rates contributed to little increment of hardness. The transition between bainite and acicular ferrite has been analysed from the point view of inclusions characteristics, chemical composition and cooling rate. Excellent Charpy toughness at 233 K was obtained with acicular ferrite as predominantly microstructure. Even with bainite weld of high hardness, the toughness was nearly enough to fulfill the minimal requirements. WM for Ti steel showed to be markedly less sensitive to the variations of cooling rate than that for Nb steel.

In this study, grain refinement was achieved through the addition of commercial grain refiner Al Ti5B1 to gas tungsten arc weld metal of the aluminium alloys 1050A (Al 99.5) and 5083 (Al Mg4.5Mn0.7). The grain refiner additions led to a significant reduction of the weld metal mean grain size (Alloy 1050A, 86 %; Alloy 5083, 44 %) with a change in grain shape from columnar to equiaxed. Tensile tests showed for Alloy 5083 that the weld metal's ductility can be increased through grain refinement. No improvement in weld metal strength (i.e. yield strength and ultimate tensile strength) was observed. Furthermore, tear tests with notched specimens revealed that the resistance against initiation and propagation of cracks in the weld metal can be enhanced through grain refinement. The toughness was observed to increase clearly by grain refinement in weld metal of commercial pure Al (Alloy 1050A). In Alloy 5083 weld metal, the toughness was not improved through grain refinement, likely because of a semi-continuous network of brittle intermetallic phases that facilitate crack propagation.

T1 - Influence of alloy and solidification parameters on grain refinement in aluminium weld metal due to inoculation N2 - Refinement of the weld metal grain structure can improve the mechanical properties of the weld and decrease the susceptibility to solidification cracking of the weld metal. In this study, commercial Al Ti5B1 grain refiner was used to refine the microstructure of LB (laser beam) and GTA (gas tungsten arc) aluminum welds by inoculation. The grain refiner additions led to a significant decrease in the weld metal mean grain size whereby a transition from columnar to equiaxed grain structure (Columnar to Equiaxed Transition, CET) was observed. The development of both grain size and shape depended upon the base metal (Al alloys 1050A, 5083 and 6082) and upon the welding process. The GTA welding process allowed a more pronounced and a more efficient refinement than in LB welds. Furthermore, the influence of the solidification conditions on the CET was investigated through temperature measurements in the weld metal. The temperature profiles revealed a faster solidification of LB welds than in GTA welds. The results from the temperature measurements were also used to estimate (according to an existing model) the critical thermal gradient at which the CET occurs.

New business models have been developed to benefit from the opportunities offered by a digitally connected world. However, the focus in on the smart factory consisting of autonomous acting cyber physical systems (CPS). The efficient implementation of such CPS within an industrial environment requires the digitalization of the corresponding production processes. The digital twin of the process under investigation enables to develop sophisticated monitoring and control strategies which are necessary to fulfil the requirements of individual product design. The need for a digitalization of the welding process is a logical consequence especially with regards to its industrial importance. The theoretical investigations and derived mathematical models of the welding process are well known since many decades. Anyhow, there is still a lack of industrial applicability of such models for an efficient and safe design of welded components. With respect to structural welding simulation that targets the heat effects of welding in terms of global quantities like temperature, solid phase distribution and residual stresses as well as distortions, the limited predictability of these quantities for arbitrary process parameters hinders its usability. This presentation aims to give an overview of the current state of the art in structural welding simulation to predict the evolution of welding induced temperatures, stresses and distortions. Emphasis is given to industrial applicability of such models by reduction of the calculation times for large real-world structures and improved prediction of optimal process parameters. Furthermore, the role of such models within a weld data management system is demonstrated. The accumulation and relational storage of simulation and measuring data improves the overall process knowledge. This enables virtual cause and effect analyses of new process parameters as basis for a control system design.

T1 - Environmental and social life cycle assessment of welding technologies N2 - Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Social Life Cycle Assessment (SLCA) are applied in evaluating possible social and environmental impacts of the state-of-art welding technologies, such as Manual Metal Arc Welding (MMAW), Manual Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Automatic GMAW and Automatic Laser-Arc Hybrid Welding (LAHW). The LCA results indicate that for 1 meter weld seam, MMAW consumes the largest amount of resources (like filler material and coating on electrodes) and energy, which contributes to comparatively higher environmental impacts in global warming potential, acidification, photochemical ozone creation potential and eutrophication than other chosen processes. With regard to social aspects, the health issues and fair salary are under survey to compare the relative potential risk on human health caused by fumes in different welding technologies, and to indicate the sufficiency of current salary of welders in Germany. The results reflect that the wage status of welders is still fair and sufficient. The manual processes bring much higher potential risk of welders’ health than the automatic processes, especially MMAW.

In the current study, a filler metal consisting of aluminum base metal and different amounts of commercial grain refiner Al Ti5B1 was produced. The filler metal was then deposited in the base metal and fused in a GTA welding process. Additions of titanium and boron reduced the weld metal mean grain size considerably and resulted in a transition from columnar to equiaxed grain shape (CET). In commercial pure aluminum (Alloy 1050A), the grain-refining efficiency was higher than that in the Al alloys 6082 and 5083. Different welding and solidification parameters influenced the grain size response only slightly. Furthermore, the observed grain-size reduction was analyzed by means of the undercooling parameter P and the growth restriction parameter Q, which revealed the influence of solute elements and nucleant particles on grain size.

T1 - Simulation of the temperature field in laser beam welding by inverse technique N2 - This paper presents volume heat sources and the corresponding functional analytical Solutions for the transient temperature field. The considered energy distributions are normal, exponential and parabolic. The method follows the common approach in Computational Welding Mechanics (CWM) to account for the physics of the welding process and the resulting temperature field by phenomenological models for heat conduction. Therefore, the used heat source models are apparent heat sources that incorporate the real heat input as well as the fluid flow in the weld pool and the latent heat connected with phase transformations. The heat source models provide welding characteristics like thermal cycle and Fusion line in the cross section within short computational time. Consequently, inverse techniques on basis of optimisation algorithms enable the adaptation of the models to the experimental data efficiently. Furthermore, the direct evaluation of the energy distribution for the experimental fusion line in the cross section is demonstrated which enhances the numerical optimisation by reducing the number of unknown model Parameters and providing a reasonable initial guess within the model parameter space. The proposed temperature field models are validated with real laser beam welding experiments.

In this context aluminum alloys have a significant importance especially the heat treatable Al-Mg-Si alloys. With regards to welding the heat input causes the dissolving of the precipitates yielding a degradation of the strength properties. Furthermore, there is the risk of solidification cracking during welding for Al-Mg-Si alloys, especially AW 6082-T6. As a consequence Al-Mg-Si alloys are welded using a dissimilar filler material based on 5xxxx aluminum alloys that yields a reduction of resulting strength properties in comparison to the base material. Therefore, the paper presents the application of a novel massive filler wire for Al-Mg-Si alloys. The wire consists of AW 6082 with additionally added AlTi5B1 master alloy fostering the grain refinement of the weld metal. Exemplarily for the base material AW 6082-T6 GMA welding experiments are performed using the novel filler wire 6082TiB. It could be shown that solidification cracks could totally be avoided. The tensile strength of the welded joints are evaluated and compared with weldments using a conventional 5183 filler wire. Artificial aging is performed after welding in order to improve the strength properties by solution hardening showing the potential of these alloys.

The correct order of K magnitude is necessary in order to reproduce the residual stresses qualitatively and quantitatively.

T1 - Assessing carbon dioxide emission reduction potentials of improved manufacturing processes using multiregional input output frameworks N2 - Evaluating innovative process technologies has become highly important within the last decades. As standard tools different Life Cycle Assessment methods have been established, which are continuously improved. While those are designed for evaluating single processes they run into difficulties when it comes to assessing environmental impacts of process innovations at macroeconomic level. In this paper we develop a multi-step evaluation framework building on multi regional inputeoutput data that allows estimating macroeconomic impacts of new process technologies, considering the network characteristics of the global economy. Our procedure is as follows: i) we measure differences in material usage of process alternatives, ii) we identify where the standard processes are located within economic networks and virtually replace those by innovative process technologies, iii) we account for changes within economic systems and evaluate impacts on emissions. Within this paper we exemplarily apply the methodology to two recently developed innovative technologies: longitudinal large diameter steel pipe welding and turning of high-temperature resistant materials. While we find the macroeconomic impacts of very specific process innovations to be small, its conclusions can significantly differ from traditional process based approaches. Furthermore, information gained from the methodology provides relevant additional insights for decision makers extending the picture gained from traditional process life cycle assessment.

The automatic calibration of the phenomenological model is performed by a multi-variable global optimisation routine which yields the optimal fit between simulated and experimental weld charcteristics without the need for initial model parameters. For exemplary welding processes it is shown that linear 3D heat conduction models can approximate measured temperature fields with a high accuracy. The modelling approach presented comprises the automatic calibration against multiple experiments which permits simulating the temperature field for unknown process parameters.

Designer und Fertiger der Gründungsstrukturen von Windenergiean-lagen vor wachsende Herausforderungen. Neben dem Gründungskonzept der XL-Monopiles rückt wegen der Kombination aus dem vergleichsweise geringen Materialverbrauch bei gleichzeitig hoher Steifigkeit, auch die Jacketgründung in den Fokus. Der Fertigungsaufwand der Jackets ist verglichen mit Monopiles groß; kann jedoch durch die Nutzung von Standardrohren mit automatisiert gefertigten Jacketknoten reduziert werden. Vor diesem Hintergrund beschreibt der vorliegende Forschungsbericht den Fertigungs-prozess zum automatisierten Schweißen von X-förmigen Hohlprofilknoten für Jacket-Gründungsstrukturen von Offshore-Windenergieanlagen. Ein weiteres wesentliches Ziel dieses Vorhabens war die konsequente Digitalisierung der schweißtechnischen Fertigungskette während der automatisierten Schweißung der X-Knoten. Die so ge-speicherten Prozessparameter können zum einen als Grundlage einer Qualitätskon-trolle dienen, zum anderen ermöglichen sie eine vollständige Nachverfolgbarkeit der automatisiert gefertigten Rohrknoten. Der zweite maßgebend in diesem Bericht behandelte Aspekt umfasst die Quantifizie-rung der Einflüsse aus Fertigungsautomatisierung und Innenschweißen auf die Ermü-dungsfestigkeit der Hohlprofilknoten auf Basis serieller Ermüdungsversuche. Dazu wurden im Projekt zwei Serien mit jeweils 16 Schwingversuchen an ein- und doppel-seitig automatisiert geschweißten X-Knoten durchgeführt und entsprechende Struktur-spannungswöhlerlinien für die automatisiert gefertigten X-Knoten bestimmt. Die Ergebnisse dieser Ermüdungsversuche werden abschließend in numerischen Untersuchungen auf Basis der Strukturspannungs- und des Kerbspannungskonzeptes gegenübergestellt, um die Prognosefähigkeit beider Konzepte für die ermüdungs-kritischen Bereiche des X-Knotens bewerten zu können. Durch die im Forschungsvorhaben durchgeführten schweißtechnischen, experimen-tellen und numerischen Analysen konnte das Potential automatisiert gefertigter Rohr-knoten hinsichtlich Reproduzierbarkeit und Ermüdungsverhalten quantifiziert werden. Zusätzlich konnte der Einfluss der inneren Schweißnaht auf die Ermüdungsfestigkeit bewertet werden. N2 - The development within the offshore wind sector towards more powerful turbines combined with increasing water depth for new wind parks is challenging both the designer as well as the manufacturer of bottom fixed support structures. Besides XL-monopiles, the market developed an innovative and economic jacket support structure, which is based on automatically manufactured tubular joints combined with standardized pipes. Besides the improvements for a serial manufacturing process the automatically welded tubular joints show a great potential in terms of fatigue resistance e.g. due to a smooth weld geometry without sharp notches. However, these benefits are not considered yet within the fatigue design process of automatically manufactured jacket substructures according to standards and guidelines due to the lack of suitable S-N curves. Therefore, within this research project the automatically welding process of tubular joints for jacket support structures of offshore wind energy turbines was developed. Additionally, the project was focused on a consistent digitalization of the welding production chain during the automated welding of the X-joints. These stored process parameters can then serve as the basis for quality checks and a complete traceability of the automatically produced tubular joints is enabled. The second aspect dealt within this report is the quantification of the effects of production automation and internal welding on the fatigue resistance of the tubular joints by performing serial fatigue tests. For this purpose, two series each with 16 fatigue tests on single- and double-sided automatically welded X-joints were carried out in the project to determine structural stress based S-N curves for the automatically welded X-joints. The results of these fatigue tests are then compared to numerical investigations based on the structural stress as well as notch stress approach. The outcomes are then compared to evaluate the capability of both approaches for the prediction of the fatigue-critical locations within the X-joints. Based on the analysis of the welding procedure as well as the experimental and numerical investigations within this research project, the potential of automatically manufactured tubular joints with regard to reproducibility and fatigue behaviour was investigated. In addition, the effects of an inner root layer on the fatigue resistance was evaluated.
