Weld Pool Solidification
This part of the research pertains various phenomena
associated with the liquid to solid phase transformation during weld cooling.
The main issues are the effect of thermodynamics, kinetics, crystallography
and the weld cooling conditions on macro- and microstructure developments.
In specific, the research focuses on inclusion formation in low alloy steel
welds, welding of single crystals, and welding of transparent materials.
The salient features of this reserach are given below.
