Abstract
This paper gives a bibliographical review of the finite element methods (FEMs) applied to the analysis and simulation of welding processes. The bibliography at the end of the paper contains references to papers, conference proceedings and theses/dissertations on the subject that were published between 1976 and 1996. The following topics are included: modelling of welding processes in general, modelling of specific welding processes, influence of geometrical parameters, heat transfer and fluid flow in welds, residual stresses and deformation in welds, fracture mechanics and welding, fatigue of welded structures, destructive and nondestructive evaluation of weldments and cracks, welded tubular joints, pipes and pressure vessels/components, and welds in plates and other structures/components.
