[Image: info.png]
The aim of this book is to describe, in the first chapters, the different algorithms suitable for constructing a triangulation and, more precisely, a Delaunay triangulation. Then, the following chapters will indicate the way in which triangulation methods can be extended to develop meshing algorithms. Only Delaunay type methods are discussed here while observing that a large variety of meshing algorithms exists. To this end, the book is divided into three parts. The first part, devoted to triangulations, comprises the first four chapters. The second part dealing with meshing algorithms is made up of the five following chapters and the third part disdiscusses several applications in the four last chapters. A technical appendix and an index are also included in the book.

Finite Element Methods are used for numerous engineering applications where numerical solutions of partial differential equations are needed. As computers can now deal with the millions of parameters used in these methods, automatic error estimation and automatic adaptation of the utilised method (according to this error estimation), has become a hot research topic.
This text offers comprehensive coverage of this new field of automatic adaptation and error estimation, bringing together the work of eight outstanding researchers in this field who have completed a six year national research project within the German Science Foundation. The result is a state-of-the-art work in true reference style. Each chapter is self-contained and covers theoretical, algorithmic and software presentations as well as solved problems. A main feature consists of several carefully elaborated benchmarks of 2D- and 3D- applications.
* First book to go beyond the Finite Element Method in itself
* Covers material from a new research area
* Presents benchmarks of 2D- and 3D- applications
* Fits with the new trend for genetic strategies in engineering

  BS EN ISO 5817:2007 Welding. Fusion-welded joints in steel, nickel, titanium and thei
Posted by: mybest - 01-13-2012, 09:03 AM - Forum: British Standards (BS) - Replies (1)



BS EN ISO 5817:2007 Welding. Fusion-welded joints in steel, nickel, titanium and their alloys (beam welding excluded). Quality levels for imperfections

Size: 744 KB | Format: PDF | Quality: Original preprint | Year: 31 August 2007 | pages: 36 | ISBN: 978 0 580 56192 4

[Image: 92459238007044666110.png]


[Image: info.png]

BS EN ISO 5817 provides quality levels of imperfections in fusion-welded joints (except for beam welding) in all types of steel, nickel, titanium and their alloys. It applies to material thickness above 0,5 mm. It covers fully penetrated butt welds and all fillet welds. The principles of this international standard may also be applied to partial-penetration butt welds.

Quality levels for beam welded joints in steel are presented in BS EN ISO 13919-1 .

Three quality levels are given in order to permit application to a wide range of welded fabrication. They are designated by symbols B, C and D. Quality level B corresponds to the highest requirement on the finished weld. The quality levels refer to production quality and not to the fitness-for-purpose of the product manufactured.

This international standard applies to:

Unalloyed and alloy steels
Nickel and nickel alloys
Titanium and titanium alloys
Manual, mechanized and automatic welding
All welding positions
All types of welds, e.g. butt welds, fillet welds and branch connections.

BS EN ISO 5817 is an international standard that should be used as a reference in the drafting of application codes and/or other application standards. It contains a simplified selection of fusion weld imperfections based on the designations given in BS EN ISO 6520-1.

BS EN ISO 5817 defines the dimensions of typical imperfections which might be expected in normal fabrication. It may be used within a quality system for the production of welded joints. It provides three sets of dimensional values from which a selection can be made for a particular application. The quality level necessary in each case should be defined by the application standard or the responsible designer in conjunction with the manufacturer, user and/or other parties concerned. The quality level shall be prescribed before the start of production, preferably at the enquiry or order stage. For special purposes, additional details may be prescribed.

The quality levels given in BS EN ISO 5817 provide basic reference data and are not specifically related to any particular application. They refer to types of welded joint in fabrication and not to the complete product or component itself. It is possible, therefore, that different quality levels are applied to individual welded joints in the same product or component.

It would normally be expected that for a particular welded joint the dimensional limits for imperfections could all be covered by specifying one quality level. In some cases, it may be necessary to specify different quality levels for different imperfections in the same welded joint.

The choice of quality level for any application should take account of design considerations, subsequent processing (e.g. surfacing), mode of stressing (e.g. static, dynamic), service conditions (e.g. temperature, environment) and consequences of failure. Economic factors are also important and should include not only the cost of welding but also of inspection, test and repair.

Although BS EN ISO 5817 includes types of imperfection relevant to the fusion welding processes listed in Clause 1, only those which are applicable to the process and application in question need to be considered.

Imperfections are quoted in terms of their actual dimensions, and their detection and evaluation may require the use of one or more methods of non-destructive testing. The detection and sizing of imperfections is dependent on the inspection methods and the extent of testing specified in the application standard or contract.

BS EN ISO 5817 is directly applicable to visual testing of welds and does not include details of recommended methods of detection or sizing by non-destructive means. It should be considered that there are difficulties in using these limits to establish appropriate criteria applicable to non-destructive testing methods such as ultrasonic, radiographic, eddy current, penetrate, magnetic particle testing and may need to be supplemented by requirements for inspection, examining and testing.

The values given for imperfections are for welds produced using normal welding practice. Requirements for smaller (more stringent) values may include additional manufacturing processes, e.g. grinding, TIG dressing.

The following welding processes and their defined sub-processes in accordance with BS EN ISO 4063:

Metal-arc welding without gas protection
Submerged-arc welding
Gas-shielded metal-arc welding
Gas-shielded welding with non-consumable electrodes
Plasma arc welding
Oxy-fuel gas welding (for steel only).

Metallurgical aspects, e.g. grain size, hardness, are not covered by BS EN ISO 5817.

  ISO 3834: Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials
Posted by: mybest - 01-13-2012, 05:09 AM - Forum: ISO - Replies (7)

PD CEN ISO/TR 3834-6:2007 Quality requirements for fusion welding of metallic materials. Guidelines on implementing ISO 3834

Size: 1.4 MB | Format: PDF | Quality: Original preprint | Year: 31 May 2007 | pages: 32 | ISBN: 978 0 580 50779 3

[Image: 47471640132253408054.png]


[Image: info.png]

PD CEN ISO/TR 3834-6:2007 gives guidelines for the implementation of requirements given in the other parts of BS EN ISO 3834, and is intended to help manufacturers and users select the part of BS EN ISO 3834 appropriate to their needs. It is expected that they will already be familiar with BS EN ISO 3834 series as a whole.

Welding is a special process in that the final result may not be able to be verified by testing. The quality of the weld is manufactured into the product, not inspected. This means that welding normally requires continuous control or that specific procedures be followed, or both. BS EN ISO 3834 deals with quality requirements in welding and has been prepared in order to identify those controls and procedures.

BS EN ISO 3834 is not a quality system standard intended to take the place of ISO 9001, but a useful, additional tool for use when ISO 9001 is applied by manufacturers, in which case the meeting of its requirements needs to be recorded in certificates or documentation. However, BS EN ISO 3834 can be used independently of ISO 9001.

BS EN ISO 3834 is intended for the fusion welding of metallic materials, and its application is independent of the products manufactured. However, its principles and many of its detailed requirements are also relevant for other welding and welding-related processes.

Among other international standards covering resistance welding and thermal spraying are BS EN ISO 14554 and BS EN ISO 14922, respectively.

One of the aims of BS EN ISO 3834 is to define requirements in the field of welding so that contracting parties or regulators do not have to do it themselves. A reference to a particular part of BS EN ISO 3834 should be sufficient to demonstrate the capabilities of the manufacturer to control welding activities for the type of work being done. This concept also applies to committees responsible for drafting product standards.

BS EN ISO 3834 does not in itself require external assessment or certification. However, assessments by customers and certification by independent bodies are growing trends in commercial relations and the standard can serve as a basis for these purposes, as well as for the demonstration of performance by those manufacturers implementing it.
