The development and application of friction stir welding (FSW) technology in steel structures in the shipbuilding industry provide an effective tool of achieving superior joint integrity especially where reliability and damage tolerance are of major concerns. Since the shipbuilding components are inevitably subjected to dynamic or cyclic stresses in services, the fatigue properties of the friction stir welded joints must be properly evaluated to ensure the safety and longevity. This research intends to fulfill a clear knowledge gap that exists nowadays and, as such, it is dedicated to the study of welded steel shipbuilding joints in GL-A36 steel, with 4 mm thick. The fatigue resistance of base material and four plates in as-welded condition (using several different parameters, tools and pre-welding conditions) were investigated. The joints culminate globally with defect-free welds, from which tensile, microhardness, and fatigue analyses were performed. The fatigue tests were carried out with a constant amplitude loading, a stress ratio of R=0.1 and frequency between 100 and 120 Hz. The experimental results show the quality of the welding process applied to steel GL-A36 which is reflected in the mechanical properties of joints tested.

Welding Procedure

The vertical MAG welding procedure is a difficult position to be executed because the trend of the molten bath flowing. This article aims to present the achievement of vertical welding joints with a linear device with a radial oscillation system that should achieve automatic vertical welds and the correlation of the welding parameters with the movement of the welding torch in order to obtain these, using the MAG procedure, protective gas M 21 (82% argon + 18% CO2), welding wire SG2, the material of the welded pieces S 355 JR. Samples will be cut from the welded steel plates and they will be characterized from the mechanical point of view (hardness, microstructure and macrostructure).

Range Of Variation

A robust methodology to simulate virtually the residual stresses pattern in welded steel plates is presented. The methodology is applied to the structural analysis of typical welded plates belonging to ship structures, and the effect of residual stresses on the elastoplastic behavior of plates loaded axially is analyzed in comparison to the residual stress free case, both for tension and compression and including initial imperfections. Residual stresses affect in different manner plates with different geometries; thus a parametric study is performed covering the usual range of variation of the most important plate parameters that control the strength of the plates, more precisely the slenderness and the aspect ratio. The results from finite elements analysis are compared with codes and most established formulations and recommendations of applicability in the prediction of load-shortening curves for hull’s bending strength evaluation, ultimate strength and ultimate strain of plate elements are made.

Good Agreement

An explicit formula is presented for the design of welded steel plates subjected to uniform lateral pressure, on the basis of a designer-specified level of acceptable permanent set, including that due to welding. The formula is derived from a combination of theoretical and experimental studies and shows good agreement with experimental results. For the convenience of designers the formula is also given in the form of design curves. The paper also delineates the areas of application of this and other formulas for laterally loaded plating. In brief, the paper shows that for static and quasistatic loads the formula derived herein is more accurate than formulas based on either the pseudo-elastic or the rigid-plastic approach. As the load becomes more dynamic the rigid-plastic approach becomes more appropriate, and for high-speed impact loads the rigid-plastic approach is best. For quasistatic loads, such as slamming, the formula presented herein is somewhat conservative while the rigid-plastic formulas are somewhat optimistic. A similar formula for concentrated loads (such as wheel loads) will be presented in a subsequent paper.

The main objective of the current work was to produce sound Refill FSSW joints between AA6181-T4 aluminum and DP600 steel plates. The steel plates were used in two different surface conditions: with and without galvanized surface layer. The Taguchi statistical method was used to find out the set of parameters indicated to produce joint with higher mechanical resistance. Then, the possibility of joining these dissimilar metals using the Refill FSSW process was verified. Tool rotation speed and welding time were varied to observe its effect over the joint behavior. The results of lap shear tests showed that galvanized layers do not cause any substantial change on the final joint mechanical resistance, even though different joining mechanisms had been observed.
