The American Society of Naval Engineers continues to be in contact with federal, state and local authorities with respect to the health and safety concerns surrounding the coronavirus (COVID-19) and its potential impact on attendance at future ASNE symposia and events. Following the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance:  https://www.cdc.gov, and based upon current information, ASNE has revised TSS 2020 to start with a virtual first conference in the beginning of August. We look forward to seeing our members, sponsors and registrants virtually on 04-05 August 2020. Then, in November we look forward to hosting an in-person conference at The Sheraton Pentagon City Hotel. Thank you for your continued partnership and attendance!

Reducing Shipbuilding and Ship Repair Costs Through the Proper Use of Welding Engineering

Welding engineering is often underutilized during ship construction, leading to inefficiencies, production errors and increased life cycle costs. Navy Vessels are enormous structures that house large complex weapons, propulsion systems, and personnel dedicated to the defense of our nation. Due to their extensive size, welding is a critical process in the production of these massive structures. Properly engineering welds is an interdisciplinary process that must incorporate many different engineering disciplines. Knowledge of chemistry, material science, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, manufacturing optimization and mechanics, along with their interaction, are all critical in order to have a complete understanding of the materials joining process. This knowledge then must be integrated into welding design, materials selection, welding processing, and testing plans to ensure the implemented welds perform to their desired specification. Increased utilization of proper welding engineering concepts can increase productivity, reduce bottle necks, and prevent welding failures that drive up shipbuilding and ship maintenance costs.
