In some situations, repair of the weld bead, also performed by electric arc welding, can be used to correct, and eliminate any discontinuities. However, electric arc welding causes the presence of residual stresses in the joint, which can impair its performance and not meet specific design requirements. In this paper, welded joints made of ASTM A 516 GR 70 steel plates, with a thickness of 30.5 mm, welded by the MAG—Metal Active Gas process (20% CO<sub>2</sub>) and using a “K” groove were analysed. The joints were manufactured with seven welding passes on each side of the groove. After welding, one batch underwent repair of the bead by TIG welding (Tungsten Insert Gas) and another batch underwent two repairs by TIG welding. Were presented results of the behaviour of the residual stress profile measured by X-ray diffraction and the Vickers microhardness profile in the joints as well the fracture toughness in the conditions only welded and submitted to repairs. The results indicated that the greater number of repair passes reduced the residual compressive stress values obtained in the material manufacturing process and caused a stabilization on the Vickers hardness values. It was concluded that compressive residual stresses did not play a major role in the R-curve results. The presence of discontinuities in the welded joint caused greater influence on the behaviour of the R curve.展开更多

Mode-Ⅱ loading experiment using BHW-35 steel at different temperatures show that there are two kinds of fracture mode.opening mode(or tensile mode)and sliding mode(or shear mode).A de- crease in temperature causes the fracture mode to change from shear mode to tensile mode.For BHW- 35 steel,this critical temperature is about-90C.Actually.under any kind of loading mode(mode Ⅰ,mode Ⅱ,mode Ⅲ or mixed mode),there always exist several kinds of potenital fracture modes (for example,opening mode.sliding mode.tearing mode or mixed mode).The effect of temperature under mode-Ⅱ loading is actually related to the change of the elastic-plastic properties of the material.展开更多

The influence of matching ratio of joints on the crack driving forces (J integral, crack mouth opening displacement CMOD) and strain distributions along the contour have been discussed in detail. The results indicate that the comprehensive effects of crack position and the matching ratio of welded joint dominate the distribution of strain along the contour. Moreover, the crack driving force increases with the decrease of the matching ratios in overmatched weldments.展开更多

The analysis method adopted combines the micromechanical approach with the effective elastic medium approach. The anisotropic constitutive relation of the effective elastic medium is based on the DMG damage model developed by the authors for microcrack weakened brittle materials undergoing damage in form of elastic modulus degradation as a result of stable microcrack growth. The stress and strain fields at the crack tip and the condition of path independence of J integral in the damage zone are discussed under some reasonable approximations. A modified J integral method is thereby proposed to calculate the ratio of near tip to remote stress intensity factors and compared with the conventional method of J conservation.展开更多
