Due to excellent weld quality, orbital welding with TIG is widely applied to pipe welding. But concave back bead is formed easily in overhead and inclined-up position of butt orbital welding. It is difficult to find a paper to overcome this problem. In this study, in order to make convex back bead in overhead and inclined-up position of pipe 5G welding, control method of molten pool was actively investigated. Melt run welds were conducted on thickness 4.0mm SS400 with overhead and inclined-up position and was observed the variation of bead shape after welding with the bead former developed. The height of back bead showed the trend of increase as the distance from molten pool to the bead former was decreased. Also, there is no trend in the bead width of front and back as welding position was changed or the distance from molten pool to the bead former was decreased.

Titanium and its alloys have been widely using in the various field of industry application due to high corrosion resistant properties and mechanical properties. Titanium is highly reactive in the high temperature state and the formation of titanium oxide and porosities in the nuggets of fusion welding will results in the degradation of the mechanical properties. For this reason the studies of friction stir welding for titanium have been investigated recently. The FSW zones of titanium were classified by the weld nugget (WN), the linear transition boundary (TB) and the heat affected zone (HAZ). The WN along with titanium parent was characterized by the presence of twins and dislocations. The average grain size and hardness of WN has been changed according to heat input. The grain refinement resulted from the FSW increased the hardness in the stir zone. Sound dissimilar joints between SUS 304 and CP-Ti were achieved using an advancing speed of 50 mm/min and rotation speeds in the range of 700-1100 rpm. Aluminum 1060 and titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V plates were lap joined by friction stir welding, hence the ultimate tensile shear strength of joint reached 100% of Al 1060. Mg alloy and Ti were successfully butt joined by inserting a probe into the Mg alloy plate with slightly offsetting. But Ti-Al intermetallic compound layers formed at the interface of these joints.

The Friction Stir Welding(FSW) has mainly been used for making butt joints in Al alloys. Development of Friction Stir Lap Welding(FSLW) would expand the number of applications. Microstructure of FSLW in A5052-H112 alloy was investigated under varying rotation and welding speed. As the rotation speed was increased and the welding speed was decreased, a amount of heat was increased. As a result, bead interval was narrower, bead width are larger, and experimental bead interval was almost similar to theoretical bead interval. Typical microstructures of FSLW A5052-H112 alloy consist of three zones, including Stir Zone(SZ), Thermo-Mechanically Affected Zone(TMAZ) and Heat Affected Zone(HAZ). As a amount of heat was increased, average grain size was larger in three zones. Nevertheless, the aspect ratio was almost fixed for FSLW conditions. The misorientation of SZ, HAZ and TMAZ was examined. A large number of low angle grain boundaries, which were formed by severe plastic deformation, were showed in TMAZ as comparison with SZ and HAZ. Microhardness distribution was high in order of BM, SZ, TMAZ, and HAZ. The Micro-hardness distribution in HAZ, TMAZ of upper plate were lager than lower plate. Relationship between average grain size and microhardness was almost corresponded to Hall-Petch equation.

소재시험편(素材試驗片)과 맞대기 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)을 대상(對象)으로 피로시험(疲勞試驗)을 행(行)하여 작용최대응력(作用最大應力)-피로수명(疲勞壽命)(S-N)선도(線圖), 소성변형율(塑性變形率)-하중반복회수(荷重反復回數)(${\varepsilon}_p$-N)선도(線圖), 초기균열발생시(初期龜裂發生時)의 소성변형율(塑性變形率)-피로수명(疲勞壽命)(${\varepsilon}_p-N_c$)선도(線圖) 및 균열성장율(龜裂成長率)-응력확대계수변동범위(應力擴大係數變動範圍)(da/dN-${\Delta}K$)선도(線圖)를 그려서 강구조물(鋼構造物) 용접부(鎔接部)에서의 여러가지 피로거동(疲勞擧動)을 검토(檢討)하였다. 본(本) 연구(硏究)에서 얻어진 결과(結果)를 요약(要約)하면 다음과 같다. 하중반복회수(荷重反復回數) $2{\times}10^6$ cycle에서의 피로강도(疲勞强度)는 용접부(鎔接部)가 소재부(素材部)의 약(約) 60%였으며 강복응력(降伏應力)에 대한 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 비(比)는 소재부(素材部)와 용접부(鎔接部)가 각각(各各) 0.72, 0.65로 나타났다. 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)의 S-N 선도(線圖)는 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 감소(減少)가 완만(緩慢)한 구간(區間)과 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 감소(減少)가 큰 구간(區間)으로 분류(分類)되어 작용최대응력(作用最大應力)이 작을 수록 피로강도(疲勞强度)의 감소(減少)가 커지는 현상(現象)을 보였다. 두 구간(區間)으로 구분(區分)되지 않은 S-N 선도(線圖)에 의한 피로강도(疲勞强度)에 비(比)해 $2{\times}10^6$ cycle에서의 피로강도(疲勞强度)가 약(約) 83%에 해당(該當)하였다. 이는 낮은 응력(應力)에서 용접부(鎔接部) 내부결함(內部缺陷)의 영향(影響)이 크게 작용(作用)하는 때문이 아닌가 생각된다. 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)의 경우(境遇) 소재시험편(素材試驗片)에 비(比)해, 또 작용최대응력(作用最大應力)이 클수록 초기균열발생(初期龜裂發生)이 빠르고 균열발생직전(龜裂發生直前)의 소성변형율(塑性變形率)의 증가(增加)가 급격(急激)한 것을 알 수 있었다. 소재시험편(素材試驗片)에서 ${\varepsilon}_p-N_c$ 관계식(關係式)의 상수(常數) ${\alpha}$값이 0.42 로 Manson, Coffin의 연구결과(硏究結果)와 거의 일치(一致)하였고 용접시험편(鎔接試驗片)에서는 이 값이 0.28 로 이들의 연구결과(硏究結果)와 큰 차이(差異)를 나타내었는데, 이는 피로(疲勞)에 의한 용접부(鎔接部) 소성변형(塑性變形)의 급격(急激)한 변화(變化)와 내부결함(內部缺陷)의 영향(影響)이 작용(作用)했기 때문이 아닌가 생각된다. 이와 같은 결과(結果)로 볼 때 기존(旣存)의 강구조물(鋼構造物) 및 향후(向後) 신설(新設)될 강구조물(鋼構造物) 용접부(鎔接部)의 품질(品質) 및 피로(疲勞)에 대한 안전성(安全性)에 적절(適切)한 대책(對策)이 요망(要望)되며, 이 분야(分野)에 관한 더 많은 연구(硏究)가 행(行)해져야 되리라고 사료(思料)된다.
