Dimensional Analysis and Validity of Uniaxial Residual Stress Distribution for Welded Box Sections by András Horváth, Dénes Kollár

“…A comprehensive parametric analysis investigates the effects of primary welding variables, such as heat source power and welding speed, alongside geometric parameters of the heat source model using random Latin hypercube sampling technique in the analyzed parameter set. The relationship between the size and shape of the characteristic isotherms, i.e., the aspect ratio and the Rosenthal number, underscores that the analyzed welding heat sources are in the fast regime with the validity of uniaxial residual stresses based on the analytical assumption (minimal values are AR = 9.94 and Ro = 30.47). …”
