Ebrahimi, Amin (author), Sattari, Mohammad (author), Babu, A. (author), Sood, A. (author), Römer, Gert Willem R.B.E. (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author)Laser beam shaping offers remarkable possibilities to control and optimise process stability and tailor material properties and structure in laser-based welding and additive manufacturing. However, little is known about the influence of laser beam shaping on the complex melt-pool behaviour, solidified melt-track bead profile and...journal article 2023

Ebrahimi, Amin (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author)Laser butt welding of thin metal sheets is a widely used fusion-based joining technique in industrial manufacturing. A comprehensive understanding of the complex transport phenomena during the welding process is essential for achieving high-quality welds. In the present work, high-fidelity numerical simulations are employed to investigate the...journal article 2023

Ebrahimi, Amin (author), Sattari, Mohammad (author), Bremer, Scholte J.L. (author), Luckabauer, Martin (author), Römer, Gert-willem R.B.E. (author), Richardson, I.M. (author), Kleijn, C.R. (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author)The absorptivity of a material is a major uncertainty in numerical simulations of laser welding and additive manufacturing, and its value is often calibrated through trial-and-error exercises. This adversely affects the capability of numerical simulations when predicting the process behaviour and can eventually hinder the exploitation of fully...journal article 2022

Ebrahimi, Amin (author), Kleijn, C.R. (author), Hermans, M.J.M. (author), Richardson, I.M. (author)Internal flow behaviour and melt-pool surface oscillations during arc welding are complex and not yet fully understood. In the present work, high-fidelity numerical simulations are employed to describe the effects of welding position, sulphur concentration (60-300 ppm) and travel speed (1.25-5 mms-1) on molten metal flow dynamics in fully...journal article 2021
