Authors: gangurde, bansode
Abstract: An important factor in welding process is selection of appropriate welding electrode. If a wrong
welding electrode is selected then it may give rise to various welding defects and ultimately lead to failure of
weld.In this paper, best welding electrode is selected from available alternatives of general purpose electrodes
for mild steel for Shielded Metal Arc Welding process (SMAW). The selection is done by using Technique for
Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method. The results are then compared with other
Multi Attribute Decision Making (MADM) methods; Simple Additive Weighing (SAW), Weighted Product
Method (WPM), Modified TOPSIS. The best ranked electrode by all the methods is then selected as the best
welding electrode from available alternatives2017-04-11T00:00:00Z
