Students have asked these similar questions

1) The development of residual stresses in weld joint is due to? O Heat treatment operations OUnevenly distributed non-elastic strain ONon-uniform heating and cooling O All of the above

Welding stainless steel is a complicated process because (uniform / intergranular / erosion) corrosion may happen, to avoid this issue post-weld-heat treatment is conducted to (precipitate / dissolve) carbide particles.

Question 1 1.1 Identify the weld defect shown in Figure 1 below. Provide reasons for your selection. Figure 1: Weld defect 1.2 Explain how the weld defect, shown in Figure 1, can occur. 1.3 Identify the joining process shown in Figure 2 and explain why this process is frequently used by automotive manufacturers. Figure 2: Joining process frequently used by automotive manufacturers 1.4 Explain the main differences between the joining process shown in Figure 2 and fusion welding processes. 1.5 Name important design considerations applicable to the joining process shown in Figure 2.
