(a) What do you understand by polarity in welding? Compare DC -welding with AC welding .which polarity will you select while welding. (b) What do you understand by friction welding? Where is it suitable?discuss its principle . What are the differences amongst the homogenous, autogenesis and heterogeneous process? Give example of each process. (c) Describe with the sketches, the mechanism of explosive welding. Also briefly write about weld interfaceand welding parameters .what are the applications of the explosive welding? Q3-Attempt any two of the following: (3 x 2 = 6) (a)-Explain radiography, ultrasonic and magnetic particles inspection test used to inspect welding joints. (b)-Explain why in welding of certain materials, preheating, post heating and normalizing are essential. (c)-Explain the effect of recrystallization and grain structure of weld properties. Q4- answers any two of the following: (3 x 2 = 6) (a)- Define weld ability of materials and mention the factors on which weld ability depends. (b) - what is weld decay? How can weld decay be avoided? (c)- What are the characteristics of HAZ? Also explain the factors affecting HAZ. Q5- Attempt any four parts of the following. (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) (f) (1.5 x 4 = 6)

Define weld ability of material and the factors on which weld ability depends. Explain HAZ with a neat figure. Mentionthe design considerations to be made to get quality weld. Mention normally encountered welding defects and remedial measures taken. Explain weld decay in stainless steel and how it is controlled. What are the causes of residual stress in welding? Explain any two measuring techniques.
