Abstract
Structure of the computer system developed by the authors for rational selection of consumables for electric arc welding of structural steels is described. The system is based on mathematical modelling of physical-metallurgical phenomena occurring during arc welding using data provided by manufacturers of welding consumables on chemical composition of deposited metal, welding parameters and conditions, as well as deposition efficiency.
Keywords: arc welding, welded joint, heat-affected zone, chemical composition, microstructure, mechanical properties, welding consumables, computer modelling
