This book presents the use of
ABAQUS software in a simplified manner, for use in welding-related
issues. Increasing human needs leads to the creation of complicated
scientific problems. In the majority of these problems, it is necessary
to join different parts and geometries together. Classical methods such
as elasticity theory of stress distribution and governing equations of
temperature distribution are not appropriate for solving these
complicated problems. To overcome these challenges, finite element
methods are proposed in order to solve different processes using
differential equation. ABAQUS is a user-friendly commercial finite
element software for modeling different processes in mechanical, civil,
aerospace and other engineering fields. This book contains unified and
detailed tutorials for professionals and students who are interested in
simulating different welding processes using the ABAQUS finite element
software.
