Abstract: Simple butt welds were produced using a particular metal and a variety of combinations of current, voltage, and welding velocity. Four metals possessing quite different physical properties were ...

Abstract: Die friction and redundant deformation cause working stresses in drawing to be greater than simple homogeneous deformation would demand. At small die angles, frictional effects are large but the ...

Abstract: Values of the redundant work factor in rod drawing were determined experimentally for four metals over a wide range of variables; none of the metals were strain hardened prior to drawing. The ...
