摘要

The purpose of this paper is to propose a kind of mixed logical dynamical (MLD) model to predict the back bead width of pulsed GTAW process with misalignment. Misalignment is considered as discrete input and the nonlinear welding process is approximated using piecewise linear models. A MLD model is then established and gives a good prediction quality of the back bead width of pulsed GTAW process with misalignment. The stability and reliability of the MLD model are tested by a closed loop control experiment. This study shows that the MW framework is a good modeling method for pulsed GTAW process. Thus, a solid foundation for penetration control of welding process is established based on the MLD model.
