I am looking to add to the induction welding page and these are some of the changes I had looked into making. Please direct me in the right direction and provide any suggestions. I have attempted to upload and cite a photograph explaining the process, but I do not know how to do so.

Induction welding was first discovered by Michael Faraday. The basics of induction welding explain that the magnetic field's direction is dependent on the direction of current flow. and the field's direction will change at the same rate as the current's frequency. For example, a 120Hz AC current will cause the field to change directions 120 times a second. This concept is known as Faraday's Law.

When induction welding takes place, the work pieces heat up to under the melting temperature and the edges of the pieces are placed together impurities get forced out to give a solid forge weld.[1]

Induction welding is used for joining a multitude of thermoplastics and thermosetting matrix composites.[2]
