WELDING SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
The last four decades have seen tremendous developments in the art, science and technology of welding. During the second war the use of welding was limited to the repair and maintenance jobs. Now it is used to weld structures of serious structural integrity like space-crafts and fission chambers of atomic power plants. The developments in welding are taking place at a fantastic rate. It has now become a group activity requiring skills from different disciplines. Some major contributors are: metallurgists, designers, engineers, architects, physicists, chemists. safety engineers etc. A lot of descriptive and quantitative material is available in the welding textbooks. The major goal of the present book is to provide the welding engineers and managers responsible for activities related to welding with the latest developments in the science and technology of welding and to prepare them to tackle the day-to-day problems at welding sites in a systematic, scientific and logical manner. This need the author has felt during his past 30 years of teaching this subject both at undergraduate and graduate level and giving refresher and short-term courses to the practicing engineers. The book completely covers the syllabus of “Advanced Welding Technology’—an elective course of UPTU, Lucknow in addition to covering a wide spectrum of other important topics of general interest to the practicing engineers and students of mechanical, production and industrial and industrial metallurgy engineering branches.
