For laser welds in thick section steel, the main cause of solidification cracking is the weld profile shape. The high depth to width ratio of laser welds causes restraint and means that high thermal stress acts across the weld where the solidification fronts meet, causing centreline cracking.
Two days later they will participate in a Rose Ceremony as the final step in their graduation process. While a rose is symbolic for many things, the School of Nursingâs Jasmine Clark says it has become a traditional event at UBC and a time-honoured tradition.
The Graduation Ceremonies mark the climax of the academic career of our students. Graduation also provides the opportunity for parents, family and friends to share in the celebrations and for their significant contribution to the success of those graduating to be recognised and acknowledged.
