A finite element model of the electrofusion welding of thermoplastic pipes
An advanced finite element (FE) model of the electrofusion welding of thermoplastic pipes has been developed using the ABAQUS FE package. The heat transfer analysis is coupled with thermal deformation analysis to include the time-dependent closure of the initial gap between the pipe and fitting....
