 Analysis and Optimization of Bead Geometry by Using Response Surface MethodologyAsif Ahmad, Shahnawaz Alam and Meenu Sharma A chapter in Response Surface Methodology - Research Advances and Applications from IntechOpen Abstract: Analysis of bead geometry is very important in product design and manufacturing. Defect-free products with reliability are the demanding parameter in the manufacturing Industry. In this study, we have analyzed and optimized bead geometry parameters such as height of reinforcement (HOR), depth of Heat Affected Zone (DOH), and width of Heat Affected Zone (WOH) by using Central Composite Design (CCD) of response surface methodology (RSM). In this study, peak current and pulse frequency are the most important process parameters for HOR and the optimum combination obtained are (160 A, 80 A, 100 Hz, and 45%) further HOR at this optimum was found to be 1.41 mm, which is close to 1.45 mm. Similarly, peak current and pulse frequency are the most important process parameter for WOH and the optimum combination obtained are (160 A, 80 A, 150 Hz, and 45%) further WOH at this optimum was found to be 1.32 mm, which is close to 1.37 mm. Again, similarly peak current and pulse frequency are the most important process parameter for DOH and the optimum combination obtained are (160 A, 80 A, 100 Hz, and 45%) further DOH at this optimum was found to be 1.26 mm which is close to 1.58 mm.
