...Christopher Bayley; John Goldak Weld build-up or weld cladding is a welding process in which weld metal can be deposited in order to reclaim the material thickness. In certain applications, welding induced distortions must be controlled while simultaneously minimizing welding induced residual...

...D. J. Taylor; T. R. Watkins; C. R. Hubbard; M. R. Hill; W. A. Meith Tantalum refractory liners were explosively clad into cylindrical pressure vessels, some of which had been previously autofrettaged. Using explosive cladding, the refractory liner formed a metallurgical bond with the steel...

...Z. H. Ning; R. H. Liu; S. Q. Huang; X. S. Lu Craze cracking and clad disbonding typically occur in cladding due to thermomechanical cycling and high property mismatch between dissimilar materials in a coke drum. The thermoelasticity problem in a coke drum with cladding is assumed quasi-static...

...B. Yildirim; H. F. Nied In this study, finite element models are developed to analyze and predict the transient temperature profiles, residual stresses, and distortion incurred during deposition of protective overlay cladding on boiler tube waterwall panels. Plane strain models are used to simulate...
