Welding process generates distortion and residual stress in the weldment due to rapid heating and cooling. Welding distortion and residual stress in the welded structure result in many troubles such as dimensional inaccuracies in assembling and safety problem during service. The accurate prediction of welding residual stress is thus very important to improve the quality of weldment and find the way to reduce itself. This paper presents the simulation of welding-induced residual stress analysis to examine the cause of cracking in the SUS-overlay welding specimen at FPSO Moon Pool structure.

In this study, a series of fatigue test was performed to evaluate the fatigue strength of butt welded specimens. Effective notch stress through finite element analysis was conducted to analyze the fatigue results. As a results, no significant decrease in fatigue strength was observed when backplates were present. The S-N curve that based on effective notch stress appeared a similar fatigue lift to FAT 225 curve without reference to existence of backplates.

This study is to inspect the influence of the initial residual stress on fatigue crack growth behavior after the distribution of the initial residual stress is measured when the crack is growing from the compressive residual stress field. Also, the tensile residual stress field. Also, the influence of the variation of residual stress distribution on fatigue crack growth behavior at the crack tip is studied when the initial crack occurs on weld metal, bead interface and HAZ (Heat Affected Zone), respectively. For this purpose, CT-type specimen that crack parallel to the welding bead were manufactured by butt welding on the Al. Alloy 1100-O plate.

Most research to date concerning the cryogenic toughness of austenitic stainless steels has concentrated on the base metal and weld metal in weldments. The most severe problem faced on the conventional austenitic stainless steel is the thermal aging degradation such as sensitization and carbide induced embrittlement. In this paper, we investigate the cryogenic toughness degradation which can be occurred for austenitic stainless in welding. The test materials are austenitic stainless JN1, JJ1 and JK2 steels, which are materials recently developed for use in nuclear fusion apparatus at cryogenic temperature. The small punch(SP) test was conducted to detect similar isothermally aging condition with material degradation occurred in service welding. The single-specimen unloading compliance method was used to determine toughness degradation caused by thermal aging for austenitic stainless steels. In addition, we have investigated size effect on fracture toughness by using 20% side-grooved 0.5TCT specimens.

In this study, Fatigue crack growth behavior of the laser welded sheet metal due to a single overload was investigated. From Fatigue crack propagation test, it was observed that the retardation of fatigue crack growth has been more effective in the welded specimen than in the base metal. And if the distance between the welded part and the position of overload is too close the retardation of fatigue crack growth at the welded part has been decreased. From FEM analysis, it was observed the retardation has been more effective compressive residual stress than plastic zone.

Variation of welded-joint hardness and tensile strength of a accelerated-cooled fine-grained ferritic-pearlitic steel with heat input was investigated. In a weld heat-affected zone, a softened zone was formed and it had lower hardness than that of a base metal. While the width of a softened zone increased continuously with an increase of heat input up to 100kJ/cm. the minimum hardness in a softned zone was almost constant after a continuos decrease up to 60KJ/cm. Because of a softened zone, the welded-joint was fractured in the HAZ and its maximum reduction of tensile strength was about 20%. Measured welded-joint tensile strength and calculated minimum tensile strength in a welded-joint was almost same, which means that the plastic restraint of a softened zone did not occur in this experiment. It is believed that as a softened zone width-to-specimen thickness ratio is as high as 2~6 in this experiment, the plastic restraint effect does not occur. Theoretical analysis shows that the plastic restraint effect occurs only when the ratio is below 0.5.

This study investigated the effect of the system parameters on penetration depth measurement using infrared temperature sensing system. The distance from focusing lens to detector was varied to diminish the error in measuring weld bead width. The effect of bead surface shape on measured surface temperature profile was evaluated using specimen heated by electric resistance. The measuring distance from laser beam was changed to optimize the measuring point. The results indicated that the monitoring device of surface temperature using infrared detector array was applicable to real time penetration depth control.

In previous study, the decrease and recovery of total stiffness in welded structure was discussed on the basis of experimental examination through tensile loading and unloading test of welded specimen. The recovery of structure stiffness was caused by the release of welding residual stress through mechanical loading. In this study, analysis model that is indispensable for the effective application of MSR method was established on the basis of test and measurement result. Thermal elasto-plastic analysis for welding process was performed by non- coupled analysis. Analysis results of welding process were transfer to elasto-plastic model for tensile loading & unloading by restart technique. In elasto-plastic analysis model for mechanical loading & unloading, hardening appearance of weld metal was considered by rezoning technique and tying technique was used for JIG condition of test machine.

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.

보 플랜지 절취형 (Reduced Beam Section, RBS) 내진 철골모멘트접합부의 최근 실험결과를 살펴보면, 보 웨브를 볼트 접합한 시험체는 보 웨브를 용접한 시험체에 비해 조기에 스캘럽에서 취성파단이 발생하는 열등한 내진성능을 나타냈다. 과거 여러 연구자들이 수행한 실험 결과 및 본 연구의 수치해석 결과를 종합해 볼 때, 이러한 접합부의 조기 취성파괴는 고전 휨이론과 매우 다른 응력전달 메카니즘에서 기인하는 웨브 볼트의 슬립, 그리고 재료의 인성이 가장 낮은 스캘럽 부근의 응력집중과 밀접한 관련이 있는 것으로 분석된다. 본 연구에서는 실험 및 해석결과를 바탕으로 RBS 접합부의 실제 응력전달경로에 부합되는 새로운 보 웨브 볼트 설계법 및 개선된 상세를 제시하고 실물대 실험을 통하여 방안의 타당성을 입증하였다.
