η = P/(σ_t*t_p*L)
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Efficiency of Welded Joints - The Efficiency of Welded Joints refers to the strength of a welded joint with respect to the strength of the base metal.
Tensile Force on Welded Plates - (Measured in Newton) - Tensile Force on Welded Plates is the stretching force acting on the plates that are welded.
Tensile Stress in Weld - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile Stress in Weld is the average stress experienced by the Weld Beads when the joint plates are brought to tension.
Welded Base Plate Thickness - (Measured in Meter) - Welded Base Plate Thickness is defined as the thickness of the base plate that is welded to another plate.
Length of Weld - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Weld is the linear distance of the welding segment joined by the welded joint.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Tensile Force on Welded Plates: 16.5 Kilonewton --> 16500 Newton (Check conversion here)
Tensile Stress in Weld: 56.4 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 56400000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Welded Base Plate Thickness: 18 Millimeter --> 0.018 Meter (Check conversion here)
Length of Weld: 19.5 Millimeter --> 0.0195 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

η = P/(σ_t*t_p*L) --> 16500/(56400000*0.018*0.0195)

Evaluating ... ...
