MIG welding is an arc welding process in which a continuous solid wire electrode is fed through a welding gun and into the weld pool, joining the two base materials together.
A shielding gas is also sent through the welding gun and protects the weld pool from contamination.
In fact, MIG stands for “Metal Inert Gas”. The technical name for it is "Gas Metal Arc Welding" (or GMAW).

Welding Defects
Eurotech Now inteducing Welding Defects. Welding Defect is any type of flaw in the object which requires welding. Seven type of Welding Defect
Seven type of Common weld defects include:
1. Lack of fusion
2. Lack of penetration or excess penetration
3. Porosity
4. Inclusions
5. Cracking
6. Undercut
7. Lamellar tearing
Any of these defects are potentially disastrous as they can all give rise to high stress intensities which may result in sudden unexpected failure below the design load or in the case of cyclic loading, failure after fewer load cycles than predicted.
There are numerous welding processes including arc welding, electron beam welding,
friction welding, laser welding, and resistance welding. This article will concentrate on arc
welding, which is the most common technique used to join most steels. Factors affecting
weld quality will be discussed and how to avoid common weld defects will be presented.
Arc welding requires striking a low-voltage, high-current arc between an electrode and the
base metal. The intense heat generated with this arc melts the base metal and allows the
joining of two components. The characteristic of the metal that is being welded and the joint
type (i.e. groove, fillet, etc.) dictates the welding parameters and the procedure that needs to
be followed to obtain a sound weld joint.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Electrodes
Flux Coating (Electrodes used in MMAW):
➔ Coating on electrode core wire is provided with various hydrocarbons, low ionization potential
elements, binders ( like Na and K silicates are invariably used ) etc to perform specific roles.
➔ To provide protective shielding gas environment to the arc zone and weld pool with the help of
inactive gases (like carbon dioxide) generated by thermal decomposition of constituents present in
coatings such as hydrocarbon, cellulose, charcoal, cotton, starch, wood flour.
➔ To remove impurities from the weld pool by forming slag as constituents present in coatings such as
titania, fluorspar, china-clay react with impurities and oxides in present weld pool.
➔ To deoxidize weld metal and clean the weld metal: Elements oxidized in the weld pool may act as
inclusions and deteriorate the performance of the weld joint. Therefore, metal oxides and other
impurities present in weld metal are removed by deoxidation and slag formation. For this purpose,
deoxidizers like Ferro-Mn, silicates of Mg and Al are frequently incorporated in the coating material.
➔ To increase viscosity of the molten metal and slag so as to reduce tendency of falling down of
molten weld metal in horizontal, overhead and vertical welding. This is done by adding constituents
like TiO2 and CaF2 in the coating material. These constituents increase the viscosity of the slag.

Coated electrodes used in MMAW:
6. Electrodes classification on the basis of coating constituents:
➔ Cellulosic electrodes: Coating consists of high cellulosic content more than 30% and TiO2 up
to 20%. These are all position electrodes and produce deep penetration because of extra heat
generated during burning of cellulosic materials. However, high spatter losses are associated
with these electrodes.
➔ Rutile electrodes: Coating consists of TiO2 up to 45% and SiO2 around 20%. These
electrodes are widely used for general work and are called general purpose electrodes.
➔ Acidic electrodes (Iron Oxide): Coating consists of iron oxide more than 20%. Sometimes it
may be up to 40%, other constituents may be TiO2 10% and CaCO3 10%. Such electrodes
produce self detaching slag and smooth weld finish and are used normally in flat position.
➔ Basic electrodes (Low hydrogen electrodes): Coating consist of CaCO3 around 40% and
CaF2 15-20%. These electrodes normally require baking at temperature of approximately 250
° C for 1-2 hrs or as per manufacturer's instructions. Such electrodes produce high quality
weld deposits which has high resistance to cracking. This is because hydrogen is removed
from weld metal by the action of fluorine i.e. forming HF acid as CaF2 generates fluorine on
dissociation in the heat of arc.
Selection Process of Welding Electrodes
7. Selection Process of Welding Electrodes
Role of common constituents added as a flux coatings (in MMAW electrode) are as following:
S. No. Constituent in Flux Role of welding arc features
1 Quartz (SiO2) Increases current-carrying capacity
2 Rutile (TiO2 ) Increases slag viscosity,good re-striking
3 Magnetite (Fe3O4 ) Refines transfer of droplets through the arc
4 Calcareous spar (CaCO3 ) Reduces arc voltage, produces inactive
shielding gas, slag formation
5 Fluorspar (CaF2 ) Increases slag viscosity of basic
electrodes,decreases ionization
6 Calcareous- fluorspar (K2O Al2O3
6SiO2 )
Improves arc stability by easy ionization

Electrodes on the basis of coating factor
➔ Coating factor: Diameter of coated electrode / Diameter of core wire
➔ Light coated electrode: coating factor = 1.25

Tungsten Electrodes
➔ Pure Tungsten Electrode (Green Colour)
➔ Thoriated Electrode
1. 1.0 % thorium (Yellow Colour)
2. 2.0 % thorium (Red Colour)
➔ Zirconiated Electrode
1. 0.3 % to 0.5 % zirconium (Brown
Colour)
➔ Pure tungsten (99.5 % tungsten) electrodes are generally used on less critical welding operations than the
tungsten which are alloyed. This type of electrodes has a relatively low current carrying capacity and a low
resistance to contamination.
➔ Thoriated tungsten electrode (1.0 or 2.0 % thorium) are superior to pure tungsten electrodes because of
their higher electron output, better arc starting and arc stability, high current carrying capacity, longer life
and greater resistance to contamination.
➔ Tungsten electrode containing 0.3 to 0.5 % zirconium generally fall between pure tungsten and thoriated
tungsten electrodes in terms of performance. There is, however indication of better performance in certain
types of welding using AC power.
