Title: Strain and distortion monitoring during arc welding by 3D digital image correlation

Abstract

A novel three-dimensional (3D) digital image correlation (DIC) approach using a stereovision system was developed to measure the evolution of strain and distortion near the fusion zone during the gas tungsten arc welding process. Unlike the previously reported two-dimensional (2D) DIC approach using a single camera, the 3D DIC method was immune to the out-of-plane displacement and was capable of measuring 3D deformation. Both 2D and 3D DIC approaches in welding applications were based on the utilisation of the novel high-temperature speckle and the pulsed laser illumination plus bandpass filters. However, the speckle pattern was partially specular reflective causing issues in subset matching in the 3D approach. In conclusion, a new algorithm and experimental procedure was incorporated to solve this problem.

In situ strain and temperature measurement and modelling during arc welding

Journal Article Chen, Jian ; Yu, Xinghua ; Miller, Roger G. ; ... - Science and Technology of Welding and Joining

In this study, experiments and numerical models were applied to investigate the thermal and mechanical behaviours of materials adjacent to the weld pool during arc welding. In the experiment, a new high temperature strain measurement technique based on digital image correlation (DIC) was developed and applied to measure the in situ strain evolution. In contrast to the conventional DIC method that is vulnerable to the high temperature and intense arc light involved in fusion welding processes, the new technique utilised a special surface preparation method to produce high temperature sustaining speckle patterns required by the DIC algorithm as well asmore »« less

Method for conducting in situ high-temperature digital image correlation with simultaneous synchrotron measurements under thermomechanical conditions

Journal Article Rossmann, Lin ; Sarley, Brooke ; Hernandez, Johnathan ; ... - Review of Scientific Instruments

This work presents a novel method of obtaining in situ strain measurements at high temperature by simultaneous digital image correlation (DIC), which provides the total strain on the specimen surface, and synchrotron x-ray diffraction (XRD), which provides lattice strains of crystalline materials. DIC at high temperature requires specialized techniques to overcome the effects of increased blackbody radiation that would otherwise overexpose the images. The technique presented herein is unique in that it can be used with a sample enclosed in an infrared heater, remotely and simultaneously with synchrotron XRD measurements. The heater included a window for camera access, and themore »« less

Finite Element Analysis and In-Situ Measurement of Out-of-Plane Distortion in Thin Plate TIG Welding

Journal Article Huang, Hui ; Yin, Xianqing ; Feng, Zhili ; ... - Materials

Transient distortion of thin plate in the welding process usually has a complicated mode and large magnitude. Quantitative measurement and prediction of full-field distortion are challenging and rarely reported up to now. In this study, the out-of-plane distortion of a thin plate during the Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding process was measured using the digital image correlation (DIC) method. A simulation model based on thermal elastic–plastic finite element method (FEM) and DIC measured geometric imperfection were developed for accurate prediction of the transient welding distortion. The numerical results and experimental data agreed very well in both out-of-plane deformation modes andmore »« less

On-line weld penetration detection and control in automated gas tungsten arc welding. Ph.D. Thesis

Thesis/Dissertation Banerjee, P

The present work was undertaken to study the feasibility of monitoring and controlling weld penetration variations in real-time using an infrared detector. Weld penetration variations induced on mild steel plates were examined with an infrared detector and the acquired data analyzed to detect weld penetration variations using a mathematical analysis. Selected weld penetration indicators were developed and used to demonstrate on-line weld penetration control. A three-dimensional solid-state, transient heat transfer model was also developed to help identify key changes in thermal distributions which could be used as weld penetration indicators. A transient three-dimensional heat transfer model was used to solvemore »« less
Camera system resolution and its influence on digital image correlation

Journal Article Reu, Phillip L. ; Sweatt, William ; Miller, Timothy ; ... - Experimental Mechanics

Digital image correlation (DIC) uses images from a camera and lens system to make quantitative measurements of the shape, displacement, and strain of test objects. This increasingly popular method has had little research on the influence of the imaging system resolution on the DIC results. This paper investigates the entire imaging system and studies how both the camera and lens resolution influence the DIC results as a function of the system Modulation Transfer Function (MTF). It will show that when making spatial resolution decisions (including speckle size) the resolution limiting component should be considered. A consequence of the loss ofmore »« less
