Drawing on state-of-the-art research results, this second edition presents fundamental aspects of important processes in resistance welding and discusses their implications on real-world welding applications. This updated edition incorporates many new features: more metallurgical aspects of materials, such as steels, aluminum and magnesium alloys, zinc, and copper; commonly used electric current waveforms; and magnesium welding in terms of cracking and expulsion. Along with new 2-D and 3-D lobe diagrams, it discusses the effect of individual welding parameters and new materials for the ultrasonic evaluation of welds.
