Cracking

About the conference

This is the 5th Conference on Cracking Phenomena in Welding and Additive Manufacturing that follows four successful events in 2004, 2007, 2010, and 2014.

The purpose of the conference is to gather international experts to discuss cracking phenomena associated with welding and additive manufacturing, from both a scientific and practical standpoint.

Topics include solidification and liquation cracking, ductility-dip cracking, reheat and stress-relief cracking, hydrogen-induced cracking, weldability testing, simulation and modeling, measurement and quantification, and remedial measures.

Peer-reviewed proceedings of the workshop will be published. Proceedings from previous conferences have been highly cited and are valuable resources for engineers and scientists.
