Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) is a widely used method of joining aluminium and its alloys. Despite the fact that a lot of research has been done in this area for several decades, there are many unresolved issues on the welding process control. Optimization of square wave alternating current profiles is one of them. This paper presents the results of studies on control of spatial position of an arc by an improved heat input algorithm taking into account the necessary relationship between direct current of straight and reverse polarity. It is shown that an increase in direct current reverse polarity to over 10 A contributes to expansion of a cathode spots space and, consequently, a greater deviation of the arc from the axis of a tungsten electrode. The spatial position of the arc is almost coaxial to the tungsten electrode when direct current reverse polarity is short-term reduced to 5 A at the final stage. These results are correct for a wide range of the square wave alternating current profiles.

Abstract. Pulse volume (PV) and its related measures, such as modified normalized pulse volume (mNPV), direct-current component (DC), and pulse rate (PR), derived from the finger-photoplethysmogram (FPPG), are useful psychophysiological measures. Although considerable uncertainties exist in finger-photoplethysmography, little is known about the extent of the adverse effects on the measures. In this study, we therefore examined the inter-method reliability of each index across sensor positions and light intensities, which are major disturbance factors of FPPG. From the tips of the index fingers of 12 participants in a resting state, three simultaneous FPPGs having overlapping optical paths were recorded, with their light intensity being changed in three steps. The analysis revealed that the minimum values of three coefficients of Cronbach’s α for ln PV, ln mNPV, ln DC, and PR across positions were .948, .850, .922, and 1.000, respectively, and that those across intensities were .774, .985, .485, and .998, respectively. These findings suggest that ln mNPV and PR can be used for psychophysiological studies irrespective of minor differences in sensor attachment positions and light source intensity, whereas and ln DC can also be used for such studies but under the condition of light intensity being fixed.
