FEM Modeling of Welded Joints

FEM modeling techniques

Classify modern modeling approaches and tools for the efficient calculation and evaluation of welded joints.

Standards for weld calculations

Standards for weld calculations

FKM, Eurocode, DVS 1612, and IIW recommendations Learn about them and apply them using practical examples.

Weld Quality and Durability of Welded Joints

Seam quality and durability

Understand the relationship between weld quality and durability and improve fatigue strength through appropriate post-weld heat treatment.

Contents & details

From the properties of welded joints to various clamping concepts, to standard-compliant strength verifications and the evaluation of weld quality.
