Comparison of explosive welding of pure titanium/SUS 304 austenitic stainless steel and pure titanium/SUS 821L1 duplex stainless steel

Pure commercial titanium was welded with two types of stainless steel,namely SUS 304 austenitic stainless steel and SUS 821L1 duplex stainless steel.The wavy interface of SUS 821L1 was smaller than that of SUS 304.The vortex zone was observed from both longitudinal and transverse directions,and its composition was analyzed.The interface of Ti/SUS 821L11 was able to bear 401−431 MPa shear load while that of Ti/SUS 304 could withstand 352−387 MPa.The weldability window was used to analyze experimental phenomenon.Furthermore,the smoothed particle hydrodynamics(SPH)numerical simulation method was used to simulate the wavy interface.The trend of wavelength and amplitude change with strength and the stand-offs was consistent with the experimental results.

An insight into microstructural heterogeneities formation between weld subregions of laser welded copper to stainless steel joints

The effect of laser beam welding(LBW) process on the microstructure-mechanical property relationship of a dissimilar weld between the copper(Cu) and stainless steel(SS) was investigated.Backscattered electron(BSE) based scanning electron microscopy(SEM) imaging was used to characterize the highly heterogeneous microstructural features across the LBW(Cu-SS) weld.The BSE analysis thoroughly evidenced the complex microstructures produced at dissimilar weld interfaces and fusion zone along with the compositional information.Widely different grain growths from coarse columnar grains to equiaxed ultrafine grains were also evident along the Cu-weld interface.A highresolution electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD) analysis confirmed the existence of the grain refinement mechanism at the Cu-weld interface.Both tensile and impact properties of the dissimilar weld were found to be closely aligned with the property of Cu base metal.Microhardness gradients were spatially evident in the non-homogeneous material composition zones such as fusion zone and the Cu-weld interface regions.The heterogeneous nucleation spots across the weld sub-regions were clearly identified and interlinked with their microhardness measurements for a holistic understanding of structure-property relationships of the local weld sub-regions.The findings were effectively correlated to achieve an insight into the local microstructural gradients across the weld.

Tensile bond anchorage properties of Australian 500N steel bars in concrete

In order to investigate the tensile bond anchorage properties of Australian 500N steel bars in concrete, 111 pullout tests were conducted. The precise bond slip values have been gained by using the laser displacement sensor with high resolution, including the complete bond-slip curves. How the main anchorage factors such as concrete strength, bar diameter （8, I0, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32 and 36 mm） the concrete covered, embedded length and transverse reinforcement influencing the bond anchorage properties was studied under tensile condition. The process of the tensile force-slip failure for Australian 500N reinforcing steel can be divided into five stages： elastic stage, local slip stage, slip in ascent stage, slip in descent stage and remnant stage. The formula for calculating the tensile bond strength of Australian 500N reinforcing bar in concrete was proposed according to the test results, including the consistent model for tensile bond-slip relationship.

Influence of yield-to-tensile strength ratio(Y/T) on failure assessment of defect-free and corroded X70 steel pipeline

The effect of yield-to-tensile strength ratio(Y/T) on failure pressure of X70 pipeline without and with corrosion defects was investigated.The stress-strain response of materials was characterized by a power-law hardening curve.Two formulas to estimate the strain hardening exponent n for a special Y/T were obtained by least squared regression method and the influence of Y/T on n was analyzed.As an application of n-Y/T expression,the analytical solutions of burst pressure for X70 pipeline without and with corrosion defects were also obtained.The results indicate that the burst pressure of defect-free X70 pipe without corrosion defects is a function of the Y/T,pipe geometry t0/D0 and engineering tensile strength,and increases as Y/T or t0/D0 increases; whilst the burst pressure of corroded X70 pipe decreases with the increase of defect depths,d/t.Comparisons indicate that the present analytical solutions closely match available experimental and numerical data.

Effects of welding parameters and tool geometry on properties of 3003-H18 aluminum alloy to mild steel friction stir weld

Defect-free butt joints of 3003 Al alloy to mild steel plates with 3 mm thickness were performed using friction stir welding （FSW）. A heat input model reported for similar FSW was simplified and used to investigate the effects of welding speed, rotation speed and tool shoulder diameter on the microstructure and properties of dissimilar welds. The comparison between microstructure, intermetallics and strength of welds shows the good conformity between the results and the calculated heat input factor （HIF） achieved from the model. The joint strength is controlled by Al/Fe interface at HIF of 0.2-0.4, by TMAZ at HIF of 0.4-0.8 and by intermetallics and/or defects at HIF0.8.

Relationship between hydrogen concentration and mechanical properties of 5Ni-16Cr-Mo steel

The qualitative relationship between hydrogen concentration and notch tensile strength has been investigated for 5Ni-16Cr-Mo steel with different strength.The notch tensile strength was determined by means of slow strain rate test(SSRT)on circumferentially notched round bar specimens with the notch root radius of 0.15 mm after hydrogen charging.Meanwhile,the hydrogen diffusion behaviors of various strength steel were studied by thermal desorption spectroscopy(TDS)analysis.The SSRT results show that the T460 steel has higher susceptibility of hydrogen embrittlement in contrast with T520 steel.The activation energies and microstructure indicate that the dislocations and interfaces of martensitic laths are hydrogen traps in 5Ni-16Cr-Mo steel.By SSRT,the elastic limit of charged specimen loaded in air is higher than the flow stress without hydrogen charging before unloading,while the difference is defined as hydrogen-induced stress.The value of hydrogen-induced stress σ*increases linearly with hydrogen concentration:σ*=−0.622+2.015C0.The finite element analysis results of stress distributions near the notch tip have shown that the maximum principal stress increases with the notch root radius decreasing.

Characterization of tensile and shear loading on indented PC-strand cable bolts

The tensile and shear strength of intrinsic bolting support systems has always been a major concern of designers. A comprehensive laboratory testing program was designed to evaluate the tensile and shear strength of individual wires and completely wound PC-strand cables. PC-strand cables with smooth wires and the recent anchorage enhancement innovation of indentation were evaluated and compared. The testing protocol detailed in ISO Standard 15630 utilizes a mandrel system that was investigated at 3different diameters which alters the wire to mandrel ratio from 2:1 to 9:1. The results demonstrate that the difference between smooth and indented wires is statistically insignificant when larger diameter mandrels are used,and that indentation does not adversely affect strand properties and performance.Insight into the shearing mechanism and evaluation techniques are discussed with the introduction of triaxial loading to describe the PC-strand tensile and shearing mechanisms. Another important result indicates that the shear strength of PC-strand cable bolting systems has a greater shear strength value than traditional steel bar bolting systems.

Effect laws and mechanisms of different temperatures on isothermal tensile fracture morphologies of high-strength boron steel

The fracture behaviour and morphologies of high-strength boron steel were investigated at different temperatures at a constant strain rate of 0.1 s-1 based on isothermal tensile tests. Fracture mechanisms were also analyzed based on the relationship between microstructure transformation and continuous cooling transformation(CCT) curves. It is found that 1) fractures of the investigated steel at high temperatures are dimple fractures; 2) the deformation of high-strength boron steel at high temperatures accelerates diffusion transformations; thus, to obtain full martensite, a higher cooling rate is needed; and 3) the investigated steel has the best plasticity when the deformation temperature is 750 °C.

Study on high speed tension property of B-grade bulletproof steel

In this paper, the high speed tension experiments have been performed on ultra high strength bulletproof steel. The specimen were cut from B-grade bulletproof steel sheet after hard-module quenching with thickness of 2.3 mm. The mechanical properties at strain rates of 0.001 s^-1, 0.01 s^-1, 0.1 s^-1 and 1 s^-1 were carried out on MTSS10, while those at higher strain rates of 200 s^-1, 500 s^-1 and i 000 s^-1 were tested on HTM5020 high speed tension tester and Hopkinson bar. The data from the high speed tension experiments were fitted via Johnson-Cook constitutive equation, and the fracture surface of each specimen was analyzed by scanning electron microscope （SEM）. The results indicate that, the shoot resistance capability of bulletproof steel is closely related to its strength, thickness and flow behaviors under high strain rate. The shoot resistance will be improved in the case of higher strength and better matching between strength and elongation. The Johnson-Cook constitutive equation fitted via experimental data provides fundament to numerical simulation. With the increase of strain rate, the size and depth of dimple trend to decrease and the depth of dimple changes less in steel with lower strength and higher elongation. The SEM analysis of fracture aspect is of benefit for further understanding of deformation and fracture mode under high strain rate.

Relationship between Quality and Attributes of Elliptical Spot Welds of High Strength Steel

More high strength steel （HSS） sheets are being applied in the automobile industry to improve safety and fuel efficiency. When HSS is spot welded, the strength of the welded-joint is usually determined by the attributes of the weld nugget. However, it is difficult to obtain the circular nugget and to establish the relationship between the weld attributes and welding quality because of a large number of variables and experimental uncertainty. In the paper, the numerical analysis model of tensile-shear strength test for HSS spot welds was established. And the critical ellipticity of the elliptical spot weld was determined through finite element analysis. Quantitative relationship between elliptical weld attributes and weld strength was investigated statistically using the Latin hypercube and regression analysis method. The sheet thickness, nugget eUipticity, hardness radio and yield strength have the most influential attributes in affecting welding quality. The research results can be used as a guideline for HSS resistance spot welding design.

Austenite/martensite structure and corresponding ultrahigh strength and high ductility of steels processed by Q&P techniques

The microstructure of steels treated by Q&P(quenching and partitioning) process was characterized,a method of controlling retained austenite fraction based on inhomogeneous martensitic transformation was proposed,and the mechanical properties of steels treated by Q&P process were measured.The results show that the microstructure of the studied steels is mainly composed of initial martensite,fresh martensite and retained austenite.The initial marteniste formed at the first quenching step is easily etched;the fresh martensite formed at the final quenching step looks like 'blocky' type phase,and the retained austenite is mainly located on the packet boundary and initial austenite grain boundary.The inhomogeneous microstructure causes the experimental optimum quenching temperature corresponding to maximum retained austenite fraction to be higher than the calculation based on CPE(constrained paraequilibrium) model.The product of tensile strength and total tensile elongation is 47.5 GPa%,and tensile strength of 1760 MPa was obtained for the steel with carbon content of 0.51 wt%.The TRIP(transformation induced plasticity) effects of the large fractioned metastable austenite make a main contribution to the high ductility improvement,and the martensitic matrix provides high strength.
