Numerical and Analytical Modeling of Temperature Evolution in Laser Processing of Materials

Creator:

Ball, Stefan R.

Abstract:

The ultimate goal of this work is to analyze and compare two predictive models of thermal profile in laser processing of materials. An analytical method that uses closed-form equations to represent a geometric model of a laser heat source will be contrasted with a commercial computational fluid dynamics code that...
