Residual stress in a large-diameter multi-pass butt-welded pipe joint was calculated for various welding pass sequences by thermal elastic-plastic analysis using the finite element method. The pipe joint used had an X-shaped groove, and the sequences of welding passes were changed. The distribution of residual stress depends on the welding pass sequences. The mechanism that produces residual stress in the welded pipe joint was studied in detail by using a simple prediction model. An optimum welding sequence for preventing stress-corrosion cracking was determined from the residual stress distribution. [S0094-9930(00)00701-0]

Calculations of residual stress fields, which arise after welding, cladding and tempering, were performed as applied to reactor pressure vessels (RPVs) of WWER types. These calculations are based on a procedure, which takes into account Feα↔Feγ transformation happening in base and weld metal under welding and cladding, and also creep during tempering. The procedure is based on solutions of the temperature and non-isothermal elasto-plastic problem with and without creep by the finite element method. On the basis of the performed investigation it is shown that Feα↔Feγ transformation may affect the residual stress distribution. An analysis of cases has been performed for which the above effect is strong and for which this effect may be ignored. On the basis of the calculation performed, an engineering procedure is proposed that allows to determine the residual stress fields in welds of the WWER-440 and WWER-1000 for various durations of post-weld tempering.

Welding Sequence

This work investigates the temperature distribution, deformation and residual stress in steel plates as a result of different sequences of welding. The single-pass gas tungsten arc welding process is simulated by a three dimensional nonlinear thermo-elasto-plastic approach. It is observed that the distribution of residual stress varies through the direction of plate thickness. It is concluded that the welding sequence affects not only the welding deformation but also the residual stress mainly in the lower layer of the plates. An in-depth discussion on the pattern of residual stress distribution is presented, especially on the width of the tension zone. Smaller residual tension zone and slightly lower compressive stress are found in thicker plate.

The welding residual stress of a butt-welded pipe joint is evaluated, using inherent strain analysis. The residual stress distribution is obtained in detail along the thickness direction. The residual stresses are similar to values obtained by direct measurement on the specimen surface; as if though direct measurement is not used for the inherent strain analysis. These results indicate that inherent strain analysis is effective in evaluating through-thickness residual stress in primary piping of girth welded joint.

Abstract The mean stresses of the single and multi-stacked film are experimentally investigated. After stacking several layers on a wafer, we measure the curvature on the wafer. Followed by peeling each layer stacked, we measure the curvature on the wafer, again. Mean residual stresses are calculated from radiuses of the curvatures using the Stoney’s equation[1]. Microcantilever beams is constructed by removing substrate and the deflection at the end of a beam is measured. Finite element method for determining residual stress distribution in multi-stacked films with a multi-step doping process is studied for use in micromachining applications. We propose a finite element program for residual stress analysis (RESA) in multi-stacked polysilicon film. The distribution of residual stress field in multi-stacked films is predicted using RESA. And it is established for the prediction method determining the deflection in a cantilever beam using finite element method (FEM).
