Science and Technology of Welding and Joining Science and Technology of Welding and Joining, provides rapid peer-reviewed coverage of developments in the welding and joining of all classes of materials and is published on behalf of the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining, and in association with the Japan Welding Society. The journal's comprehensive scope encompasses all welding and joining techniques (brazing, soldering, mechanical joining, etc.) and aspects such as characterization of heat sources, mathematical modelling of transport phenomena, weld pool solidification, phase transformations in weldments, microstructure-property relationships, welding processes, weld sensing, control and automation, neural network applications, and joining of advanced materials, including plastics and composites. >> Visit the journal homepage >> Sign up for Table of >> View contents of the latest Science and Technology of Welding and Joining was conceived by Stan David, Tarasankar DebRoy and Harry Bhadeshia during a scientific meeting in Austria in 1995. They noticed a lack of scientific journals dedicated to welding and decided to establish a rigorous and efficient outlet for all aspects of welding and joining. The creation of the journal was swift and the first issue was published in 1996 by the Institute of Materials in London, now the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining. >> Read more about the Stan David
Stan David is a consultant whose research interests include solidification behaviour of welds, welding of intermetallic alloys, phase stability, process modelling and residual stresses in weldments. He recently retired as a Corporate Fellow of UT-Battelle and the head of the Materials Joining and Non-destructive Testing Group in the Metals and Ceramics Division of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, USA. Stan was awarded a fellowship of the Minerals, Metals and Materials Society (TMS) in 2001. He has published over 300 papers and he was the organiser of the Trends in Welding Research Conferences and has edited several welding conference proceedings.
Tarasankar has edited four books and authored over 280 papers. He is a Fellow of ASM International and American Welding Society (AWS) and Honorary Member of AWS.
Harry is also a Distinguished Professor at the Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur, a Foreign Fellow of the Indian National Academy of Engineering and has collaborations with research institutes and companies worldwide. STWJ has strived to provide a dedicated compendium of information on a particular subject through the publication of theme issues. Coverage has been broad; from friction stir welding of steels and spot welding to residual stresses in welding. Theme issues are usually guest edited by a leading researcher in the field and provide the most recent research results in topical areas. >> Read more and view these A thousand gems: A celebration of STWJ In this special issue STWJ celebrates publishing just over 1000 articles since its inception in 1996. To commemorate this occasion, a special issue was published in mid-2011. Eminent authors were asked to assess their subject areas and describe future developments in that context. A sense of adventure which can border on speculation as far as the future is concerned makes for a lively issue. The Societies Institute of Materials, Mineral & Mining The Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining (IOM3) is a major UK engineering institution whose activities encompass the whole materials cycle, from exploration and extraction, through characterisation, processing, forming, finishing and application, to product recycling and land reuse. It exists to promote and develop all aspects of materials science and engineering, geology, mining and associated technologies, mineral and petroleum engineering and extraction metallurgy, as a leading authority in the worldwide materials and mining community. >> Find out more about the Japan Welding Society The purpose of the society is to conduct research on the contact of Welding and Joining which aims to improve academic dissemination of technology and to contribute to the development of culture. |
Dr Stan David Neutron characterization of welds and joints By Stan David, Zhili Feng and Xun-Li Wang, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, USA When a metal or alloy is subjected to weld thermal cycle, a number of changes take place. The material undergoes phase transformation and development of residual stresses that can greatly impact the performance of weldments. Therefore, it is critical to understand, characterise and quantify these phenomena using experimental techniques. Often characterisation of these events in welds, relies on destructive postmortem analysis of the weldment. It has not been possible to know what really happens in situ during welding. Basic models, animations and unsolved problems in welding A lecture by Professor Tarasankar DebRoy of Pennsylvania State University. The lecture was given to a selected audience at the University of Cambridge during his stay as a Royal Academy of Engineering Visiting Professor.

Open-access publishing Science and Technology of Welding and Joining is a MORE OpenChoice journal. MORE OpenChoice is Maney's hybrid open-access publishing model which works alongside the traditional subscription model. The free dissemination of sponsored papers is an important step in maximizing the impact of research, particularly in the developing world. To prevent any inappropriate influence, or conflict of interest, authors opt for MORE OpenChoice only once a paper has been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication. |
