A Novel metric for Quantifying fluidity in welding wires
This presentation introduces a novel metric—Lfluidity—to quantify weld fluidity, a property long understood anecdotally but never formally defined. Rishiekesh Ramgopal shares how fluidity, linked to alloy freezing range and heat input, influences weld quality and operator perception.
