Nowadays, welding is a widespread and highly developed joining method. More than 120 automatic and manually operated processes are applicable. As an unwanted side effect, heating and melting induce thermal strains and alter certain material properties. This leads to distortions and high residual stresses which should obviously be kept to a minimum. Therefore, various strategies are being developed in order to minimize distortions, materials are investigated and mechanical as well as thermal boundary conditions are researched. In contrast to welding, the aim of thermal forming is to deliberately use thermal strains to generate predicted shapes. In thermal forming well-defined heat sources offer a reproducible heat input into a highly localized area. The different forming mechanisms are specified and further investigated. Furthermore, thermal forming can overcome limits of the accessibility and avoid disadvantages of mechanical forming like the spring back effect.
The intention of the IWOTE'11 is to combine knowledge and experience in the fields of thermal forming and welding. Current shared questions concerning e.g. a quasi-static process behaviour, the analysis of large structures, size effects, the influence of the material strength and hardening behaviour and fast analysis methods will be discussed.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
