Die stetig zunehmenden Anforderungen hinsichtlich geringeren Kraftstoffverbrauchs, verminderter Schadstoffemission sowie der Erhöhung der passiven Sicherheit haben die Automobilindustrie vor Herausforderungen gestellt, denen nur durch einen konsequenten Einsatz moderner Stahlwerkstoffe zu begegnen ist. Die komplexe Gefügestruktur sowie die besonderen mechanischen Eigenschaften dieser Werkstoffe verursachen jedoch eine erhöhte Neigung zur Ausbildung von Rissen insbesondere bei Widerstandspunktschweißverbindungen.Insbesondere für kleine und mittelständische Unternehmen, die keine zeitaufwendigen und teuren Voruntersuchungen bezüglich der Rissanfälligkeit von Stählen während des Widerstandspunktschweißens durchführen können, ist zum Erhalt der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit die Kenntnis der Rissanfälligkeit einer von ihnen zu verarbeitenden Materialkombination von erheblicher Bedeutung. Durch eine einfach durchzuführende, werkstoffunabhängige Methode zur Bestimmung der Rissanfälligkeit beim Widerstandspunktschweißen, kann den KMUs die Möglichkeit zur schnellen und kostengünstigen Bewertung der Verarbeitungssicherheit zu verarbeitender Materialverbindungen bereitgestellt werden. Ziel des Forschungsvorhabens ist daher die Entwicklung einer einfachen und fertigungsnahen Methode zur Bestimmung der Rissanfälligkeit hochfester Stähle während des Widerstandspunkschweißens, die auf der gezielten, reproduzierbaren Erzeugung von Rissen basiert. Es wurde eine solche Prüfmethodik entwickelt, die auf einfach durchzuführenden experimentellen Versuchen basiert. Zu untersuchende Proben werden während des Schweißvorgangs mit einer Zugkraft belastet. Hierfür wird eine hydraulische Vorrichtung genutzt, die taillierte Flachzugproben mit definierter Kraft beaufschlagt. Infolge dessen stellt sich ein Spannungszustand ein, der die Rissbildung begünstigt. Somit können ausreichende Rissentstehungsraten erzielt werden, die eine vergleichende Beurteilung der resultierenden Risslängen zwischen den Werkstoffen zulassen. Die einfache, mobile Zugvorrichtung ermöglicht eine Nutzung der bestehenden Anlagentechnik. Durch eine Normierung der resultierenden Risslängen auf die Streckgrenze des Werkstoffs und die belastete Querschnittsfläche lassen sich ein Werkstoffranking beziehungsweise eine Klassifizierung der Rissanfälligkeit der untersuchten hochfesten Materialkombinationen erstellen. Auch zukünftig entwickelte Stahlwerkstoffe potentiell höherer Festigkeiten können untersucht werden. Weiterhin kann die entwickelte Methode als Grundlage für die Gewinnung von Basisdaten zur Untersuchung verschiedener Rissentstehungsarten während des Widerstandspunktschweißens eingesetzt werden.
Entwicklung eines Verfahrens zur Untersuchung der Heißrissresistenz lasergeschweißter Verbindungen
(2016)
In den letzten Jahrzehnten hat sich die Strahlschweißtechnik signifikant weiterentwickelt und als effizientes und wirtschaftliches Werkzeug in der Industrie etabliert. Für die Untersuchung der Heißrissresistenz verschiedener Werkstoffe existieren zahlreiche eigen- und fremdbeanspruchende Tests. Diese wurden aber speziell für andere Schweißverfahren, insbesondere das Lichtbogenschweißen, konzipiert.
Daher besteht die Notwendigkeit eines geeigneten Heißrisstests, bei dem Werkstoffe realen Strahlschweißbedingungen ausgesetzt werden können. Die Entwicklung sowie die Standardisierung einer aussagekräftigen experimentellen Methode stellen einen wichtigen Schritt auf dem Weg zur Vermeidung von Heißrissen und damit für die Gewährleistung der Sicherheit von gefügten Bauteilen dar. Ziel der Forschungsarbeiten ist es, einen geeigneten Test zur effektiven Untersuchung der Heißrissanfälligkeit von lasergeschweißten Verbindungen zu konzipieren und zu entwickeln.

This study presents mechanisms of the evolution of a narrowed region in the weld pool center during deep penetration laser beam welding. In numerous numerical studies presented in this study, it was also found that the local reduction of the weld pool size can cause detrimental effects on the melt flow behavior and the resulting properties of the welds. A particularly large influence of this effect was identified in three aspects. Firstly, the local variation of the solidification sequence of the weld pool causes an increase in the hot-cracking susceptibility due to a locally delayed solidification. Secondly, it was proven that a change in the local length and width of the weld pool is associated with an adverse impact on the potential flow routes of the molten material that induces stronger local variations of its solidification. Thus, the element mixing, e.g. during the welding with filler materials, is blocked. This leads to a non-homogeneous chemical composition of the final weld and can cause undesired effects on the final material properties. Finally, another observed effect is related to the reduced ability of process pores to reach the top surface. As this type of porosity is usually produced around the keyhole tip, the change of the fluid flow regime above this area plays a significant role in determining the final path of the pores until the premature solidification in the middle of the weld pool captures them. This study summarizes mainly numerical results which were supported by selected experimental validation results.

The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) technology is recognized as a promising approach for improving the quality of deep penetration laser beam welding. This study employs experimental and numerical methods to investigate the effects of an auxiliary oscillating magnetic field on reducing porosity in the laser beam welding of 5754
aluminum alloy. The experimental results clearly demonstrate a significant reduction of 97% in the porosity ratio of the welded joints applied with an oscillating magnetic field compared to those without magnetic field, thereby validating the efficiency of applying MHD technology in mitigating porosity during the laser beam welding process. In addition, a transient 3D multi-physical model has been developed, integrating the MHD model and metal vapor plume, to gain a more comprehensive understanding of the porosity suppression mechanism. The weld pool shape is significantly widened and enlarged because of the Lorentz force, which facilitates the escape of gas bubbles. Meanwhile, the introduction of an oscillating magnetic field generates a time-averaged downward Lorentz force. This averaged downward Lorentz force, in turn, enhances and stables the downward fluid flow, which hinders the bubble backward movement. Meanwhile, this averaged downward Lorentz force induces an upward electromagnetic expulsive force on the bubble, which effectively increases the upward escape velocity of bubbles in the weld pool. The simulation results agree well with the experimental results.
Through experimental observation and auxiliary numerical simulation, this investigation studies the different types of grain refinement of 5754 aluminum alloy laser beam welding by applying a transverse oscillating magnetic field. Scanning electron microscope results have proved that the application of a magnetic field can reduce the average crystal branch width and increase its number. The interaction between the induced eddy current generated by the Seebeck effect and the applied external magnetic field produces a Lorentz force, which is important for the increase in the number of crystal branches. Based on the theory of dendrite fragmentation and the magnetic field-induced branches increment, the grain size reduction caused by the magnetic field is studied. Furthermore, the effects of the magnetic field are ana lyzed by combining a phase field method model and simulations of nucleation and grain growth. The grain distribution and average grain size after welding verify the reliability of the model. In addition, the introduction of a magnetic field can increase the number of periodic three-dimensional solidification patterns. In the intersection of two periods of solidification patterns, the metal can be re-melted and then re-solidified, which prevents the grains, that have been solidified and formed previously, from further growth and generates some small cel lular grains in the new fusion line. The magnetic field increases the building frequency of these solidification structures and thus promotes this kind of grain refinement.

Experimental investigation of the laser-plume interaction during high power fiber laser welding
(2011)
The effect of the well-known plasma absorption and refraction in CO2-laser metal welding plumes is in case of high power solid state laser welding negligibly small. By contrast, the diffraction effects of shorter wavelength laser radiation are considerable. According
to the results of preliminary studies, the fine condensed metal particles in the welding plume can lead to essential worsening of the laser beam quality.
This work is devoted to the investigation of the lasermatter interaction during up to 20 kW ytterbium fiber laser welding of thick mild steel plates. The plume attenuation of a probe 1.3 µm wavelength diode laser beam as well as of continuous radiation in 250-600 nm
wavelength range was measured during welding with and without Ar shielding gas supply. The measured results allow it to calculate average size and concentration of fine condensed metal particles in
different plume areas using the multi-wavelength method and the Mie scattering theory. The plume temperature, which determines the condensation conditions, was measured by means of Fe I atom
spectral line emission registration.
The obtained results can be also of interest for remote metal treatment with high-power fiber or disc lasers.

Experimental study and numerical simulation of hot crack formation for novel laser weldability test.
(2015)
Laser beam welding is a widely established manufacturing process in several industries. The solidification cracking seriously effecting the safety of welded joints could arise during the beam welding of stainless steels caused by high solidification rates. In this study the controlled tensile weldability test (CTW) was used to investigate the solidification cracking susceptibility the fully austenitic stainless steels CrMnNi (1.4376), CrNi (1.4301), CrNiMo (1.4404) and CrNiSi (1.4828) during laser beam welding. The test facility allows welding of specimens with simultaneous application of tensile load along or cross to the welding direction while the speed of tensile force application is either constant or increases linearly. The tensile force increment and/or the displacement are set by means of a CNC controller. Trials were conducted by varying the ultimate tensile strain and cross-head speed while keeping the welding parameters constant. By observing the crack-no crack behaviour and estimating the generated crack length for each trail using a new optimized experimental procedure the influence of the two important conditions (the strain and the strain rate) for the formation of solidification cracks can be investigated, the critical values of strain and strain rate that are responsible for solidification cracking formation have been determined. In the present study a three-dimensional FEM using the contact element technique was developed to simulate the solidification cracking during laser full penetration welding under external load conditions for the steel 1.4376 in order to get a better understanding of the mechanisms of hot crack initiation and the theoretical results were compared to the experimental ones. By comparing the resulting solidification crack with simulated crack, it is possible to determine the critical condition of solidification crack formation in the region where the strains and the strain rates cannot be measured due to the high temperature. The results show a good agreement between numerical calculation and experiment. It is proposed that the solidification cracking susceptibility may be predicted by FEM analysis by using the correct mechanical and thermo-physical constants of the materials.
Die in dieser Studie vorgestellte einfache Probengeometrie zeigt sich in Verbindung mit der
angewandten Versuchs- und Auswertemethodik geeignet, um den umwandlungsplastischen (TRIP)-Parameter K unter Verwendung des thermomechanischen Simulators Gleeble® 3500 experimentell zu bestimmen.
Der TRIP-Parameter K wurde für die Grundwerkstoffe S355J2+N und S960QL, sowie für den hochlegierten Zusatzwerkstoff CN13-4 -IG bestimmt.
Die numerische Einflussanalyse zeigt, dass bei der Berechnung von (Oberflächen-)Schweißeigen-spannungen die Vernachlässigung des TRIP-Effektes kaum einen Einfluss auf die Längseigenspannungen hat. Im Gegensatz da zu resultieren gegenüber dem Referenzfall signifikante Abweichungen der
Quereigenspannungen im und um den Schweißnahtbereich.
Die Verdopplung des TRIP-Parameters K gegenüber dem Referenzfall hat nur einen vernachlässigbaren Einfluss auf die Längs- sowie Quereigenspannungen auf der Oberfläche.
Für eine qualitative und quantitative numerische Nachbildung der experimentell bestimmten Längs- und Quereigenspannungen ist die Berücksichtigung der Größenordnung des material-abhängigen TRIP-Parameters K notwendig.
Experimentelle und numerische Analyse des Geometrieeinflusses auf den Schweißeigenspannungszustand
(2009)
Die vorliegende Arbeit stellt Untersuchungen im Rahmen eines Forschungsprojektes mit Schwerpunkt in der experimentellen und numerischen Analyse schweißbedingter Eigenspannungen und Verzüge beim Mehrlagenschweißen dar. Das Auftreten von kritischen Eigenspannungszuständen und untolerierbaren Verzügen während des Fertigungsprozesses verursacht durch erforderliche Nacharbeiten, wie z.B. Richten oder Wärmenachbehandlungen, zusätzliche Kosten. Diese Nacharbeiten können vermieden werden, wenn die numerische Schweißsimulation auf der Grundlage von zuverlässigen Berechnungsergebnissen zur Optimierung angewandt wird.
Die Analyse des Eigenspannungszustandes erfolgt an 5 mm dicken Blechen des unlegierten Baustahls S355J2, wobei Stumpfnaht-Verbindungen mittels Metall-Aktiv-Gas-(MAG)-Schweißen ausgeführt worden sind. Im Zusammenhang mit den Experimenten werden sowohl Temperaturzyklen und Eigenspannungen gemessen als auch Schmelzbadgeometrie und Mikrostruktur ermittelt.
Auf der Basis eines experimentell validierten Temperaturfeldes und umfangreichen röntgenografischen Eigenspannungsuntersuchungen erfolgen numerische Strukturberechnungen. Die auftretenden Phasenumwandlungen werden in der Simulation berücksichtigt.
Die Betrachtung verschiedener Blechkonfigurationen gibt den Einfluss der Blechlänge auf das Niveau der entstehenden Eigenspannungen wieder. Es stellt sich heraus, dass sich die Quereigenspannungen in den nahtnahen Bereich mit zunehmender Blechlänge in den Druckbereich verschieben. Dieses Verhalten kann durch die experimentell validierte Struktursimulation des vorliegenden Prozesses numerisch abgebildet werden und schafft somit den Ausgangspunkt für die spätere Berechnung von mehrlagigen Schweißnähten.
Extended weldability lobes in resistance spot welding of advanced high strength steels (AHSS)
(2009)
The objective of this paper is to demonstrate a new simulation technique which allows the fast and automatic generation to temperature fields based on a combination of empirical and phenomenological modelling techniques. 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. The validation of this composite simulation model is performed for exemplary welding processes and includes the prediction of the fusion line in the cross section and the corresponding thermal cycles.
Fast temperature field generation for welding simulation and reduction of experimental effort
(2009)
The quality of welding processes is governed by the occurring induced distortions yielding an
increase in production costs due to necessary reworking. Especially for more complex specimens
it is difficult to evaluate the optimal configuration of welding sequences in order to
minimise the distortion. Even experienced welding operators can solve this task only by trial
and error which is time and cost consuming.
In modern engineering the application of welding simulation is already known to be able to
analyse the heat effects of welding virtually. However, the welding process is governed by
complex physical interactions. Thus, recent weld thermal models are based on many simplifications.
The state of the art is to apply numerical methods in order to solve the transient heat
conduction equation. Therefore, it is not possible to use the real process parameters as input
for the mathematical model. The model parameters which allow calculating a temperature
field that is in best agreement with the experiments cannot be defined directly but inversely by
multiple simulations runs. In case of numerical simulation software based on finite discretisation
schemes this approach is very time consuming and requires expert users. The weld
thermal model contains an initial weakness which has to be adapted by finding an optimal set
of model parameters. This process of calibration is often done against few experiments. The
range of model validity is limited. An extension can be obtained by performing a calibration
against multiple experiments.
The focus of the paper is to show a combined modelling technique which provides an efficient
solution of the inverse heat conduction problem mentioned above. On the one hand the inverse
problem is solved by application of fast weld thermal models which are closed form
solutions of the heat conduction equation. In addition, a global optimisation algorithm allows
an automated calibration of the weld thermal model. This technique is able to provide a temperature
field automatically that fits the experimental one with high accuracy within minutes
on ordinary office computers. This fast paradigm permits confirming the application of welding
simulation in an industrial environment as automotive industry.
On the other hand, the initial model weakness is compensated by calibrating the model
against multiple experiments. The unknown relationship between model and process parameters
is approximated by a neural network. The validity of the model is increased successively
and enables to decrease experimental effort. For a test case it is shown, that this approach
yields accurate temperature fields within very short amount of time for unknown process parameters
as input data to the model contributing to the requirement to construct a substitute
system of the real welding process.
