Abstract The paper analyzes the behavior of the deformation characteristics of welded joints made of TiNi alloy with a shape memory effect. Comparison of the level of tensile strength of welded samples made by the TIG method in an Ar and He atmosphere was carried out using a Instron 5985 universal machine. The study of the material structure in the weld zone and the heat-affected zone was carried out on longitudinal sections using a JSM-6490LV electron microscope. To estimate the mechanical parameters PMT-3 microhardness tester was used. The calorimetric parameters of the welded samples were obtained using a differential scanning calorimeters METTLER TOLEDO 822e and TA Instruments Q20. To analyze the gradient properties at the weld zone and the heat-affected zone, the temperature fields were calculated using the thermal conductivity equation included in the model of the residual stress mechanism.

The article describes the main loads affecting shaped backups of the unit of combined process of continuous casting and deformation in billets production. Importance of determining the temperature fields and thermoelastic stresses in shaped backups with collars is provided at formation of several billets, at slab compression and at idle during water cooling of backups. The authors describe strength and thermophysical properties of steel from which the backups are made. Geometry of backups with collars used for obtaining billets of three different shapes in one pass is shown. Initial data of the temperature field calculation are given for backups with collars of the combined unit. Temperature boundary conditions are considered for calculation of temperature fields of backups with collars. Boundary conditions determining temperature of such backups are described and values of the heat flow and effective heat transfer coefficient are given. The results of calculation of temperature fields are performed in four sections and are given for typical lines and points located on contact surface of backups with collars and in contact layer at depth of 5 mm from the working surface. The sizes of finite elements grid which is used at calculation of temperature field of backups with collars are provided. Temperature field of backups with collars is determined on the basis of solution of unsteady thermal conductivity equation corresponding initial and boundary conditions. Values and regularities of temperature distribution in bases and in tops of the middle and extreme edges of the shaped backups are presented during slab compression and at idle when obtaining billets of three shapes in one pass at the unit of combined continuous casting and deformation.

The thermal conductivity problem of functionally graded plate is studied under different temperature fields by a new concise BEM in this paper. At first, we convert the heat conduction differential equation of functionally graded materials (FGMs) to a homogeneous material thermal conductivity equation by using variable substitution, then the Galerkin boundary integral equation is reduced to be a system of linear equations. Finally we arrive at an internal temperature of objects, and plot the distribution graphics and effects of material parameters on temperature distribution. It proves that the new concise BEM is very effective.

This study evaluated the microstructure, grain size, and mechanical properties of the alloy 800H rotary friction welds in as-welded and post-weld heat-treated conditions. The standards for the alloy 800H not only specify the composition and mechanical properties but also the minimum grain sizes. This is because these alloys are mostly used in creep resisting applications. The dynamic recrystallization of the highly strained and plasticized material during friction welding resulted in the fine grain structure (20 ± 2 µm) in the weld zone. However, a small increase in grain size was observed in the heat-affected zone of the weldment with a slight decrease in hardness compared to the base metal. Post-weld solution heat treatment (PWHT) of the friction weld joints increased the grain size (42 ± 4 µm) in the weld zone. Both as-welded and post-weld solution heat-treated friction weld joints failed in the heat-affected zone during the room temperature tensile testing and showed a lower yield strength and ultimate tensile strength than the base metal. A fracture analysis of the failed tensile samples revealed ductile fracture features. However, in high-temperature tensile testing, post-weld solution heat-treated joints exhibited superior elongation and strength compared to the as-welded joints due to the increase in the grain size of the weld metal. It was demonstrated in this study that the minimum grain size requirement of the alloy 800H friction weld joints could be successfully met by PWHT with improved strength and elongation, especially at high temperatures.

The effects of welding wire composition on microstructure and mechanical properties of welded joint in Al-Mg-Si alloy were studied by electrochemical test, X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and metallographic analysis. The results show that the weld zone is composed of coarse columnar dendrites and fine equated grains. Recrystallized grains are observed in the fusion zone, and the microstructure in the heat affected zone is coarsened by welding heat. The hardness curve of welded joint is like W-shaped, the highest hardness point appears near the fusion zone, and the lowest hardness point is in the heat affected zone. The main second phases of welded joints are: matrix α-Al, Mg2Si, AlMnSi, elemental Si and SiO2. The addition of rare earth in welding wire can refine the grain in weld zone obviously, produce fine grain strengthening effect, and improve the electrochemical performance of weld.

Different microstructures in the weld zone of a metal structure including a fusion zone and a heat affected zone, are formed as compared to the base material. Consequently, the mechanical properties in the weld zone are different from those in the base material to a certain degree owing to different microstructures and residual welding stresses. When a welded structure is loaded, the mechanical behavior of the welded structure might be different from the case of a structure with homogeneous mechanical properties. It is known that obtaining the mechanical properties in the weld is generally difficult owing to the narrow regions of the weld and interfaces. As an alternative way to obtain the weld mechanical properties, the weld mechanical properties of Alloy800HT, SUS316L, and Alloy617, were recently measured using an instrumented indentation technique, and the representative weld mechanical properties of these materials were estimated with a 95% lower confidence level for later structural analyses of the welded structures.

A numerical model of a solar wall (SW) with transparent insulation (TI) is proposed in this article. The model is based on the finite-difference method and thermal conductivity equation, with a heat source term for the absorber. Using this model, the energy efficiency of a solar wall with transparent insulation (SW-TI) with honeycomb insulation made of modified cellulose acetate was analyzed in the case of different climatic conditions prevailing in Poland, different orientations of the envelope, and different insulation thicknesses. Simulations were carried out throughout the whole heating period. Monthly energy balances and temperature distributions for the analyzed envelopes at individual moments of the heating period are the basic results of the simulations. It was found that the use of 108 and 88 mm thick insulation was the most recommended in the considered temperate climate. Placing transparent insulation on a wall with an eastern or western orientation caused the annual heat balance of the envelope to decrease by 24–31% in relation to the value of this balance in the case of a southern orientation. The monthly heat balances obtained using the proposed model give results consistent with the method of calculating heat gains for opaque building envelopes with transparent insulation included in the PN-EN ISO 13790:2008 standard.

The awareness of the presence of local brittle zones (LBZs) in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of welds has led to the requirements for minimum initiation (CTOD) toughness for the HAZ for critical applications (API RP 2Z, CSA S473). Such an approach, however, is expensive to implement and limits the number of potential steel suppliers. A fracture control philosophy that is proposed to be an attractive alternative for heat-affected zones containing LBZs is the prevention of crack propagation rather than of crack initiation. Such an approach would be viable if it could be demonstrated that cracks initiated in the LBZs will be arrested without causing catastrophic failure, notwithstanding the low initiation (CTOD) toughness resulting from the presence of LBZs. Unstable propagation of a crack initiating from an LBZ requires the rupture of tougher microstructural regions surrounding the LBZ in HAZ, and therefore the CTOD value reflecting the presence of LBZ is unlikely to provide a true indication of the potential for fast fracture along the heat-affected zone. Base metal specifications (CSA S473) usually ensure that small unstable cracks propagating from the weld zone into the base metal would be arrested. Past work has also shown that unstable crack initiation resulting from interaction of surface semi-elliptical cracks parallel to the fusion boundary with the local brittle zones can get arrested once the crack has popped through the depth of the LBZ. However, the potential for arrest when a through-thickness HAZ crack runs parallel to the fusion boundary, and thus parallel to the LBZs, has not been examined previously. To investigate the likelihood of fast fracture within the HAZ, a test program has been carried out that involved performing compact plane strain (ASTM E1221) and plane stress crack arrest tests on a heataffected zone that contained LBZs, and thus exhibited unacceptable low CTOD toughness for resistance to brittle fracture initiation. The results indicated that in contrast to the initiation toughness (CTOD toughness), the crack arrest toughness was little influenced by the presence of local brittle zones. Instead, the superior toughness of the larger proportion of finer-grain HAZ surrounding the LBZ present along the crack path has a greater influence on the crack arrest toughness. It further seems that there may be potential to estimate the HAZ crack arrest toughness from more conventional smaller-scale laboratory tests, such as conventional or precracked instrumented Charpy impact tests.

Secure and cost effective joining methods are key points for practical applications of plastic pipelines. The morphology and material structure of welded joints are complicated in comparison with the base pipe material. The formation of the weld is highly dependent on both thermal history and stress state. Consequently, the material parameters characterizing the weld joint and corresponding heated zone influence the reliability and safety of the welded pipe system as a whole. In the contribution a welded polymer-polymer butt joint is considered and its possible damage caused by slow crack growing in the weld zone is numerically analyzed. The numerical model takes into account the geometry of the bead and changes in material properties inside the weld zone. The results obtained from welded specimens are compared with those for a smooth specimen from the base material. The conclusions described in the paper can be used for a better transfer of fracture mechanics characteristics between laboratory specimens and real pipes.
