Abstract :
The correlation between electrical resistance and mechanical strength of welded joints is derived, based on a model of the dislocation structure of the heat affected zone. This correlation is confirmed experimentally with a fairly good fit between observed and theoretical results. The possibility of using the derived relationship in the automatic detection of faulty welded elements during production is discussed.
