Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joints the materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by inducing fusion. It is as distinct process from lower temperature metal-joining techniques such as brazing and soldering, to high temperature welding process and this process keep the base metal from melted. In addition, to melt the base metal, a filler material is typically added to the joint to form a pool of molten material that cools at room temperature, forming a joint that is usually stronger than the base material. Pressure may also be used along with heat, or by itself, to produce a weldment. The current study presents the effects of distortion that occurred in single-V and single bevel welded mild steel. It also includes the macro and microstructure analysis, mechanical properties and also the consumable usage along the time needed to complete the bevel and welding process. As a result, single- V is way more safe and reliable to use to withhold large load compare to single bevel.In term of financial, single bevel way more ahead.

The research described in this article presents a new contactless method of introducing mechanical vibrations into the base material during CO2 laser welding of low-carbon steel. The experimental procedure boiled down to subjecting a P235GH steel pipe with a 60 mm diameter, 3.2 mm wall thickness and 500 mm length to acoustic signals with a resonant frequency during the welding process. Acoustic vibrations with a frequency of 1385, 110 and 50 Hz were introduced into the pipe along the axis and transversely from the outer surface. The obtained welds were then subjected to structural tests and Vickers hardness measurements. The results of comparative tests show the impact of such introduced vibrations on the granular structure of the welds, as well as on their microhardness in specific areas, such as the face, penetration depth and the heat-affected zone. The effectiveness of the proposed method of introducing vibrations in the scope of grain size and shape as well as changes in the hardness distribution in the obtained welds is demonstrated.

This work investigates the fatigue performance of 10 mm AISI C1018 low carbon steel plates welded with ER70S-6 using a gas metal arc welding-based spin-arc welding process. Welded joint microstructure is characterized by bainite, acicular ferrite, and allotriomorphic ferrite along with pearlite in the ferritic matrix. The tensile strength of the weld metal was comparable with base metal and meets the mechanical property requirements in accordance with the ASTM A311/A311M-04 (2020) standard. The fatigue strengths of base metal and weld metal are 121 and 126 MPa, respectively, after sustaining 106 cycles. During cyclic loading, fracture surfaces were distinctly noticed as the crack initiation, crack propagation, and final rupture regions. The decrease in alternating stress increased the fatigue cycles to final rupture, and the nature of fatigue fracture was ductile with dimples and voids.

The Impact

Welding dissimilar materials become inevitable in engineering industries. There are many issues/problems associated with the welding of dissimilar materials, related to the welding process and its parameters. The current work investigates the effect of laser welding conditions on the toughness of dissimilar welded components. In this study, CO2 laser welding has been successfully applied for joining 316 stainless steel with low carbon steel (F/A). Design of experiment techniques has been used for different effective welding parameters (laser power, welding speed, and focus position) to optimize the dissimilar F/A joints in terms of its mechanical properties. Taguchi approach was applied to optimize the welding parameters. Three factors with five levels each (L-25) were employed in these models. Impact strength was measured at room temperature by using the universal pendulum impact tester. The results were compared with the impact strength of the base material. The results were analysed using ANOVA and S/N ratio for optimal parameters combination. It is evident that Taguchi approach has decreased the number of experiments without negative effects on the result.

In order to systematically study the morphology and distribution of M7C3 and TiC which in situ synthesized by plasma arc in the surfacing layer, plasma arc was used to clad the Fe-Cr-Ti-C wear-resistant alloy on low-carbon steel. And high corrosion experiment was applied to the surfacing layer. The hardness, microstructure and phase constitution of the surfacing layer were investigated through the tests of hardness, OM, EDS, SEM and XRD analysis. The results shows that irregular hexagonal (Cross-section) and strip (Side) M7C3 and petal-like, granular TiC were in situ synthesized in the surfacing layer. The M7C3 and TiC was combined closely. The M7C3 grains which closed to the fusion line of the base metal and surfacing layer are fine, but the ones that away from the fusion line are larger caused by the large temperature gradient. Smooth metallurgical bonding layer was formed between the surfacing layer and the base metal, it has a good metallurgical bonding. The phenomenon that carbon diffusion into the base material was clearly, the hardness near the fusion zone was improved effectively.

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) on the bend testing results of low carbon steel welding joints. The results of this study are expected to determine the cracks that occur from the root bend and face bend testings in the AC and DC welding process. This study used experimental method, where the research was done by giving AC and direct polarity DC (DC-) SMAW welding treatments. The material used in this research was low carbon steel plate DIN 17100 Grade ST 44, thickness 10 with E7016 electrode type. The process of welding joints used a single V seam, strong current of 90A, and the welding position of 1G. The testing of welding joints was carried out by bend testing using the standard acceptance of AWS D1.1 root bend and face bend testing results. The results of the bend testing showed that the AC welding root bend test specimen held no cracks while the DC welding root bend test held cracks with incompelete penetration and open crack defects. On the contrary, the AC welding face bend test had open crack defects and in the DC welding face bend test was found a crack. Thus, there was a difference in the crack resistance of the welding joint from the types of current used through the root bend test and face bend test. Therefore, it can be summarized that AC welding is better for root welding and DC welding is good for capping welding.

Temperature Range

Induced residual stresses on AISI 1020 low carbon steel plate during Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding process was evaluated in this study using experimental and Finite Element Method (FEM). The temperature range measured from the welding experimentation was 251°C-423°C, while the temperature range measured from the FEM was 230°C-563°C; whereas, the residual stress range measured from the welding experimentation was 144MPa-402Mpa, while the residual range measured from the FEM was 233-477MPa respectively. Comparing the temperature and stress results obtained from both methods, it was observed that the range of temperature and residual stresses measured were not exactly the same due to the principles at which both methods operate but disparities between the methods were not outrageous. However, these values can be fed back to optimization tools to obtain optimal parameters for best practices.  Results of the induced stress distribution was created from a static study where the thermal results were used as loading conditions and it was observed that the temperature increased as the von-Mises stress increased, indicating that induced stresses in welded component may hamper the longevity of such component in service condition. Hence, post-weld heat treatment is imperative in order to stress relieve metals after welding operation and improve their service life.
