Residual Strains

This paper presents microstructural, hardness and residual strain information for solid-state welds in creep-resistant Cr-Mo steel, made using the new local damage repair technique offered by friction taper stud welding (FTSW). The technique is suitable for making single welds to repair, for example, localised creep damage but can also be extended to deal with planar defects through the use of overlapping welds. Neutron diffraction was used to measure residual strains at a number of positions along a series of 5 overlapping FTS welds.

Galvannealed Steel

High strength 2024 aluminum alloy studs were joined to galvanized, galvannealed and non-coated steel sheets by using an advanced stud welding method. Effect of the coating layer on the interfacial microstructure and the tensile fracture load of the joints were evaluated. A specially-designed stud having a circular projection at its bottom was pressed against a sheet surface. A discharge current was introduced from the upper part of the stud. Local heating could be achieved by a high current density at a contact point between the projection and sheet. The observation of joint area revealed the projection was severely deformed and spread along the sheet surface. The coating layer of the galvanized steel sheet was removed at the joint interface under the charging voltage of 200 V, while that of the galvannealed one locally remained on the steel surface even at 400 V. This would be strongly related to the melting or liquidus and solidus temperatures of each coating layer. Joining was not achieved at a low charging voltage in the non-coated and galvannealed steel sheets, while high tensile fracture load was obtained even at 200 V in the galvanized ones.

Solid State Joining

Friction welding is a solid state joining technique used for joining similar and dissimilar materials with high integrity. This new technique is being successfully applied to the aerospace, automobile, and ship building industries, and is attracting more and more research interest. Owing to the significance, thermal analysis on friction stud welding of mild steel and aluminium combination is carried out in the present work. In this study the temperature profiles at different locations are predicted mathematically by using one dimensional finite element method.
