Abstract
A method includes receiving weld data about a weld, and analyzing, using a physics-based model, the weld data to predict a formation of a defect in the weld. The method further includes providing feedback to enable process optimization during a design stage or active control during welding to control a welding machine to correct for and eliminate the formation of the defect in the weld.
Claims16
A method comprising:
- receiving weld data about a weld;
- analyzing, using a physics-based model, the weld data to predict a formation of different types of defects in the weld and identify a formation of the different types of defects in the weld;
- and
- providing feedback to enable process optimization during a design stage or active control during welding to control a welding machine to correct for and eliminate the formation of an identified defect in the weld among the different types of defects.
