Stress-relief annealing (SR treatment) is often applied to relieve welding residual stresses in the fabrication process of pressure vessels, etc. This study aims at development of an efficient method as simple as hand calculation to estimate reduction of residual stresses of a very thick welded joint by SR treatment. In the first report, an estimating method was developed for relaxation tests, in uniaxial stress state, at changing and constant temperatures because the stress relaxation phenomenon is considerably similar to that observed in the SR treatment of a joint. In the second report, the stresses relaxed by SR treatment in a very thick welded joint were analyzed accurately by the finite element method based on thermal elastic-plastic creep theory. The characteristics of the changes of the welding residual stresses in multiaxial stress state were studied in detail for further development of the estimating method to SR treatment of a very thick welded joint, of which the stress state and boundary condition are very complex. In this report, the estimating equations in multiaxial stress states are developed for the stress relaxation phenomenon in the thick welded joints, based on the foregoing characteristics.

Stress-relief annealing (SR treatment) is often applied to relieve welding residual stresses in the fabrication process of pressure vessels, etc. This study aims at development of an efficient method as simple as hand calculation to estimate reduction of residual stresses of very thick welded joint by SR treatment. In this first report, an estimating method is developed for relaxation tests, in uniaxial stress state, at changing and constant temperatures because the stress relaxation phenomenon is very similar to that observed in the SR treatment of a joint. Using the various relations between stress and strains in the relaxation tests, estimating equations are formulated in order to simply calculate the change of the stress. The results obtained by applying the equations are compared with the highly accurate analytical result based on the finite element method. Both results show such a good coincidence that the appropriateness of the adopted method is confirmed. In the next report, this method is extended to SR treatment of a very thick welded joint, of which the stress state and boundary condition are very complex.

Multiaxial Creep

The high temperature creep tests of standard specimen and double U-type notch specimen of T92 steel were carried out under different stresses at 650 °C. Then optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to observe the fracture morphology and microstructure. The results show that the multiaxial stress state leads to the creep fracture cracking initiation in notch. Under multiaxial stress state, the failure mode of T92 steel is transgranular and dimple plastic fracture, and is more obvious with the increase of creep life. Compared with under uniaxial stress state, the precipitates under multiaxial stress state are larger in size and quantity, and are much coarser.

Multiaxial Stress State

Strength and fatigue lifetime of structural ceramics under multiaxial stress state have been estimated and compared with experimental data. Biaxial strength tests were done by an anticlastic bending test method at room temperature. Biaxial fatigue tests were done by anticlastic bending and also ring-on-ring test method at 1200°C in air. Fracture probability and lifetime were predicted on the basis of a Weibull multiaxial distribution function and subcritical crack growth, using the results of stress analyses by the finite element method. Modified maximum hoop stress theory including an empirical parameter, T, was applied to the equivalent normal stress in the multiaxial distribution function. The empirical parameter T represents a shear stress sensitivity to mixed-mode fracture due to a grain interlocking effect. It has been confirmed that the predicted fracture probability and the fatigue lifetime agrees well with the experimental data if grain interlocking effects are taking into account.
