- Due to highly complex physics and mechanics behind, the causes of laser welding defects like undercuts, lack of fusion or pores and their impact on the fracture mechanics under load are only partially understood. High speed imaging enables to identify and study intermediate process and load conditions, respectively, that might fully determine whether and when certain welding defects occur and cause failure in operation. Accompanied by modelling and simulation, a systematic approach is aimed at for a theoretical description of the essential effects.
