Welding of Tubular Structures focuses on the testing, processes, and techniques involved in welding tubular structures in different environments and conditions. The book stresses that the analysis of weldment testing is valuable to the structural integrity of every welded material. Presenting the literature of various authors who have conducted experiments and tests on this topic, the book starts by outlining the testing measures done on weldments on offshore structures, hangars, towers, and other edifices. These discussions are backed up by numerical representations to support the claims of authors, particularly on the effectiveness of the techniques used in welding. The book also presents a comparative study on the behavior of steel, aluminum, and other materials when subjected to stress. This discussion is followed by experiments to test the strength of the welded materials. Much attention is given when these materials start to crack and suffer from fatigue. With this in consideration, analysis is particularly devoted to the research on why these welded materials fail. The text is a vital source of information to those in the welding sector, particularly those working in offshore structures.

Welding of Tubular Structures focuses on the testing, techniques, and other processes connected with welding tubular structures in different conditions and environments. The selection features the works of individuals who have devoted time in the study of welding, particularly on tubular structures and other materials. The discussions focus on the design of connections of welded structures, including the process of welding and inspection. Attention is given to weldments on offshore structures, and primary concerns include the testing of the materials used and how these materials fall short if subjected to stress and fatigue. Different welding techniques used on offshore structures are also discussed. Welding techniques on other materials are also noted. These discussions are supported by studies that are backed up by numerical representations, which is aimed at validating the strength of welded materials. Consideration is given when these welded materials suffer from crack or fatigue. Analysis of the factors why these welded materials fail to meet standards is done. A comparative study is also conducted on aluminum, steel, and other products when these are subjected to stress in different conditions and environments. The book is a primary source of data to those in the welding sector, particularly those working in offshore structures.

This is the third in a series of compendiums devoted to the subject of weld hot cracking. It contains 22 papers presented at the 3rd International Hot Cracking Workshop in Columbus, Ohio USA in March 2010. In the context of this workshop, the term “hot cracking” refers to elevated temperature cracking associated with either the weld metal or heat-affected zone. These hot cracking phenomena include weld solidification cracking, HAZ and weld metal liquation cracking, and ductility-dip cracking. The book is divided into three major sections based on material type; specifically aluminum alloys, steels, and nickel-base alloys. Each of these sections begins with a keynote paper from prominent researchers in the field: Dr. Sindo Kou from the University of Wisconsin, Dr. Thomas Böllinghaus from BAM and the University of Magdeburg, and Dr. John DuPont from Lehigh University. The papers contained within include the latest insight into the mechanisms associated with hot cracking in these materials and methods to prevent cracking through material selection, process modification, or other means. The three Hot Cracking Phenomena in Welds compendiums combined contain a total of 64 papers and represent the best collection of papers on the topic of hot cracking ever assembled.
