Existing data-driven studies have mainly addressed post-occurrence expulsion detection, process-end classification, or the identification of influencing factors, whereas online monitoring requires short-term risk estimation before the event occurs. In this study, expulsion prediction is formulated as a sliding-window-based pre-expulsion risk estimation task for the currently welded spot. A physics-guided hybrid GRU-XGBoost ensemble is developed to combine temporal learning from dynamic resistance and electrode-force signals with process-physics-related scalar features describing heat input, resistance state, and force response. The framework was evaluated on 2730 valid welds, including 588 expulsion and 2142 non-expulsion welds, using weld-grouped five-fold cross-validation with fold-level working-point selection. The ensemble achieved an area under the ROC curve of 0.945 ± 0.004 and a weld-level recall of 90.6 ± 3.7% at an average false alarm rate of 9.8 ± 0.2%, outperforming both individual branches. For the 533 correctly warned expulsion welds, the median early-warning lead time was 56 ms. These results indicate that online, physically interpretable pre-expulsion risk prediction is feasible under low-false-alarm constraints within the investigated RSW configuration and provide a basis for future adaptive monitoring and control studies."}],"publication":"Journal of Manufacturing Processes","type":"journal_article","keyword":["Resistance spot welding","Expulsion prediction","Physics-guided machine learning","Hybrid ensemble modelling","Process monitoring"],"department":[{"_id":"157"}],"file":[{"file_size":10864983,"access_level":"closed","file_name":"1-s2.0-S1526612526007012-main.pdf","date_updated":"2026-07-18T12:04:02Z","relation":"main_file","content_type":"application/pdf","success":1,"file_id":"66542","creator":"kekeyang","date_created":"2026-07-18T12:04:02Z"}],"date_created":"2026-07-18T12:03:15Z","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2026-07-18T12:07:50Z","article_type":"original","intvolume":"       174","title":"A physics-guided hybrid framework for online pre-expulsion prediction in resistance spot welding","year":"2026","publication_identifier":{"issn":["1526-6125"]},"author":[{"orcid":"0000-0001-9201-9304","last_name":"Yang","first_name":"Keke","full_name":"Yang, Keke","id":"65085"},{"last_name":"Li","first_name":"Chong","full_name":"Li, Chong"},{"full_name":"Beck, Robert","orcid":"0000-0001-9056-4528","last_name":"Beck","first_name":"Robert","id":"38279"},{"id":"7728","full_name":"Hein, David","first_name":"David","last_name":"Hein"},{"full_name":"Meschut, Gerson","first_name":"Gerson","last_name":"Meschut","orcid":"0000-0002-2763-1246","id":"32056"}],"doi":"10.1016/j.jmapro.2026.07.042","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1"}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}]},{"author":[{"id":"45779","full_name":"Böhnke, Max","first_name":"Max","last_name":"Böhnke"},{"id":"34782","full_name":"Bielak, Christian Roman","last_name":"Bielak","first_name":"Christian Roman"},{"id":"38279","full_name":"Beck, Robert","orcid":"0000-0001-9056-4528","last_name":"Beck","first_name":"Robert"},{"id":"7850","full_name":"Bobbert, Mathias","last_name":"Bobbert","first_name":"Mathias"},{"last_name":"Meschut","first_name":"Gerson","orcid":"0000-0002-2763-1246","full_name":"Meschut, Gerson","id":"32056"}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["2223-7690","2223-7704"]},"status":"public","year":"2024","title":"Development of a friction model for the numerical simulation of clinching processes","article_type":"original","publication_status":"published","date_updated":"2026-05-12T14:08:38Z","_id":"57742","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publisher":"Tsinghua University Press","user_id":"7850","doi":"10.26599/frict.2025.9441052","citation":{"chicago":"Böhnke, Max, Christian Roman Bielak, Robert Beck, Mathias Bobbert, and Gerson Meschut. “Development of a Friction Model for the Numerical Simulation of Clinching Processes.” <i>Friction</i>, 2024. <a href=\"https://doi.org/10.26599/frict.2025.9441052\">https://doi.org/10.26599/frict.2025.9441052</a>.","short":"M.
