This phenomenon is generally known as a blue brittleness or a dynamic strain aging and is related to testing temperature, solute atom contents (carbon and/or nitrogen contents), strain rate and so forth.On the other hand, for base metal of QT-type high strength low alloy steels in which solute atoms such as carbon and nitrogen are fixed as carbide, nitride or carbo-nitride by heat treatment, such embrit-tlement seems to be not apt to occur comparatively. But, even if QT-type steels, there is a possibility of dynamic strain aging in heat-affected zone (HAZ) because of the above carbide, nitride or carbo-nitride dissolving by welding heats, and the consequent embrittlernent.This study was investigated about the ductility loss due to dynamic strain aging in HAZ of a 80 kg/mm2 class high strength low alloy steel.It is found by this study that dynamic strain aging and, thus, the ductility loss can occur in HAZ even if QT-type steels. The degree of ductility loss is increased in the order of upper bainite, lower bainite and martensite structure.These results can be qualitatively interpreted by considering as interaction between dislocations and solute atoms, specifically nitrogen atoms rather than carbon atoms.Transformed HAZ, which is heated above 1200°C and has martensite structure and, thus, a high content of free nitrogen atoms, is sensitive to ductility loss due to dynamic strain aging as well as the deterioration of grain coarsened HAZ toughness.","PeriodicalId":273687,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Japan Welding Society","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133611840","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the paper, the effect of plastic deformation on fatigue crack closure in low strength material and its welded joint was studied.The results are as follows. Crack closure would be caused by plastic deformation near crack surface. Generally, crack opening ratio in high yield strength material is higher than that in low yield one. This tendency based on the degree of deformation near crack surface. In addition, in welded joint, crack propagation rate was higher than mother metal, though crack opening ratio showed almost 1 by the effect of residual stress. This could be explained by the effect of restrain for plastic deformation, which was induced by existence of compresive stress field ahead of crack.","PeriodicalId":273687,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Japan Welding Society","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126632807","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If the mechanical properties of steels and weld metals subjected to thermal prestraining cycles can be estimated conveniently, it is easy to analyze the deformation behaviors of weld joints by use of numerical computation procedures.In this study three kinds of weld metals, which are formed at weld joints of a carbon steel (SM41B), an austenitic stainless steel (SUS304) and a martensitic cast steel (SCS5), were used for experiments. Their mechanical properties depended upon the thermal prestraining conditions, for example, peak temperature, retention time at constant temperature, multi-thermal prestraining cycles. The experimental results indicated that elastic limit, yield stress, strength coefficient and strain hardening exponent of materials sub-jected to thermal prestraining cycles could be expressed as a function of Vickers hardness.As an application, the material constants for elastic-plastic FEM analysis were determined from the Vickers hardness distribution of weld and butt weld joint were analyzed in terms of plastic zone extension from the view of mechanical heterogeneity.","PeriodicalId":273687,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Japan Welding Society","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128147059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And prevention of sensitization in HAZ was investigated from the view point of chemical composition.The susceptibility to intergarnular corrosion in HAZ agreed with the carbide behavior during weld thermal cycle and aging so far as the aging heat treatment condition of this work. The carbide in the base metal overaged is solid soluted and nucleates at the grain boundary by weld thermal cycle, and the carbide precipitated and grew during aging. The chrominm depleted zone has not healed after aged for 15 hours at 823K, so the carbide caused the intergranular sensitization.The sensitization in HAZ of 15Cr-75Ni Alloy can be prevented by the suitable addition of Nb; Nb/ C<40 in weight ratio.","PeriodicalId":273687,"journal":{"name":"Transactions of the Japan Welding Society","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121418942","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

So, the method for estimating the nozzle current during welding is designed and, by this method, the nozzle current is estimated under various conditions in connection with the cross-sectional area of the nozzle.Adopting above results to high current narrow gap welding process, it is clarified that more stable and uniform penetration can be obtained by using the nozzle with large cross-sectional area.

In this system, weaving width well corresponds to groove width independently to variation of deposited amount of metal. Namely, variation value of weaving width is same as that of groove width. Based on this relationship, welding speed control system has been developed. Where, only the variation value of weaving width is used as detected parameter, and optimum value of welding speed to keep bead height constant is calculated and output at every cycle of weaving. The pulsed MAG arc welding system for multi-pass welding of V shaped butt joint has been developed. Main function of this system is adaptive microcomputer control with above mentioned arc sensor method, such as seam tracking, weaving width control and bead height control for every pass of welding.In addition, following functions are also composed: built-up sequence control where number of passes is automatically decided from weaving width, simplified operating system by man-machine dialogic style with liquid crystal display and a key board, and use of a couple of optical fiber cable for transmission of multiple control signals.
