The authors develop a controller for simulated robotic welding, using a Gaussian-process surrogate trained on a finite-volume thermal model to adjust power-source settings as a robot slows along an L-shaped seam. Finite-volume checks placed 12 of 12 closed-loop stations, versus 9 of 12 open-loop stations, within an illustrative width band; these were simulations, not validated welds.
