File Description [top]

Weldasearch® is a database of short abstracts of articles on welding, joining, and allied technologies. T It aims to be a comprehensive record of appropriate worldwide literature published since 1966. Every aspect of welding and allied processes is covered including design, materials science, fatigue and fracture mechanics, equipment for joining and cutting processes, corrosion, surfacing, microjoining, metallurgy and materials science, quality control, inspection, non-destructive testing, health and safety, and commercial applications.

Weldasearch® has comprehensive coverage of all key industry sectors including aerospace, automotive, electronics, shipbuilding, fabrication of bridges, pipelines, offshore structures and pressure vessels, fabrication of power generation, nuclear and process plant, robotics and automation, repair and maintenance. Processes of welding, brazing and soldering, microjoining, diffusion bonding, thermal cutting, surfacing and hardfacing, thermal spraying are covered.

For indexing the database uses Descriptors which are taken from the International Welding Thesaurus, which can be found at: http://www.iiwelding.org. Click the "Publications" tab, then "Terminology" to access the thesaurus.
