The influence of gas metal arc welding on angular distortion of T-joint
Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) or gas metal arc welding is one of the joining technologies and widely used in metal fabrication. The quality of a joint is greatly influenced by the selection of parameter setting of GMAW. One of the quality issues faced in welding is angular distortion. This research f...

Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) or gas metal arc welding is one of the joining technologies and widely used in metal fabrication.
