摘要

This is the report of the seventh conference, held July 8-12, 1997 in SanFrancisco, California, and was presented in conjunction with the American Welding Society, The Welding Institute and the National Institute of Standards and Technology. Attendees were able to observe how computers can be used for more than just databases. In addition to tutorials, the following were covered: case studies, controls and controllers, sensing, process automation, modeling heat and fluid flow, modeling thermomechanical effects, and modeling residual stress or mechanical effects. Also covered were the Internet and networked systems in the welding industry.
