Abstract
System of engineering computer analysis of laser, electron beam and hybrid welding LaserCAD is described, which allows predicting the weld pool shape and dimensions, structure and properties of weld and HAZ metal. The system is based on physically adequate numerical-analytical models of laser and electron beam treatment processes, contains databases on materials and equipment, and has user-friendly interface.
Keywords: laser welding, electron beam welding, laser-arc welding, mathematical models, engineering computer analysis
