Computational and Mathematical Model with Phase Change and Metal Addition Applied to GMAW

This work presents a 3D computational/mathematical model to solve the heat diffusion equation with phase change, considering metal addition, complex geometry, and thermal properties varying with temperature. The finite volume method was used and the computational code was implemented in C++, using a...
