This paper uses both numerical simulation method and experimental research method to study on welding residual stress of high-strength steel of the cone-cylinder hull. Welding is often accompanied by a larger welding residual stress, which directly affects the safety and service life of the hull structure. In order to obtain the distribution of the welding residual stress, the welding procedure was developed by its parameter language by using FE analysis software in this paper. Then the welding residual stress of hot spot region was measured through X-ray nondestructive testing method, and compared it with simulation results. Finally, considering the residual stress as the initial stress, this paper analyzed dynamic response process of the welding structure under combined actions of the welding residual stress and multiaxial loads, which could more accurately determine the stress of welding structure and the location of fatigue risk point. According to the amplitude of damage parameters and strain time-history curve, we can estimate the fatigue life of structure by selecting the corresponding damage models.

Residual stress is inevitable during welding, which will greatly affect the reliability of the structure. The purpose of this paper was to study the residual stress of the hoop structure caused by the cooling shrinkage of the weld when the outer cylinder was wrapped and welded under the condition of the existing inner cylinder. In this paper, the “method of killing activating elements” of ANSYS was used to simulate the three-dimensional finite element of the hoop structure. In the case of applying interlayer friction, the welding-forming process and welding circumferential residual stress of the hoop structure were analyzed. The blind hole method was used to test the residual stress distribution of the hoop structure, and the test results were compared with the finite element simulation results to verify the reliability of the simulation calculation method and the reliability of the calculation results. Then, the influence factors of the maximum welding residual stress of the hoop structure were studied. The results show that the maximum residual stress of the outer plate surface of the hoop structure decreases with the increase of the welding energy, the thickness of the laminate, the width of the weld seam, the welding speed, and the radius of the container. Based on the results of numerical simulation, the ternary first-order equations of the maximum residual stress of the hoop structure with respect to the welding speed, the thickness of the laminate, and the width of the weld seam were established. Then, the optimal welding parameters were obtained by optimizing the equations, which provided an important basis for the safe use and optimal design of the welding hoop structure.

5A06 Aluminum Alloy

Laser welding–brazing of 5A06 aluminum to Ti6Al4V titanium in a butt configuration was carried out to discuss the influences of welding parameters on dissimilar joint properties. The effects of laser offset, welding speed, and laser power on the spreading length of the molten aluminum liquid, interface fracture zone width (IFZW), fracture roughness, intermetallic compounds (IMCs) thickness, and tensile strength were also investigated. The microstructure and fracture of the joint were also studied. The results show that the tensile strength of the joint is not only influenced by the thickness and type of IMCs, but also influenced by the spreading ability of the aluminum liquid, the fracture area broken at the Ti/fusing zone (FZ) interface, and the relative area of the brittle and ductile fracture in FZ. A dissimilar butt joint with an IMC thickness of 2.79 μm was obtained by adjusting the laser offset, welding speed, and laser power to 500 μm, 11 mm/s and 1130 W, respectively. The maximum tensile strength of the joint was up to 183 MPa, which is equivalent to 83% of the tensile strength of the 5A06 aluminum alloy.

Abstract Vacuum roll-cladding (VRC) is an effective method to produce high quality ultra-heavy AISI P20 plate steel. In the process of VRC, reasonable welding process of electron beam welding (EBW) can significantly avoid welding cracks and reduce the cost. In this paper, the electron beam welding process of AISI P20 tool steel was simulated by using a combined heat source model based on finite element method, and the temperature field and stress field under different welding parameters were studied respectively . The results showed that welding parameters have a greater effect on weld penetration than that of weld width, which making the aspect ratio increases with the increase of welding current, and decrease with the increase of welding speed. The weld morphologies were consistent with those of the modeling and the measured thermal heat curves were good agreement with those of simulated, which was verified the feasibility and effectiveness of temperature fields. The results of stress fields under different welding parameters indicat ed that lower welding speed and higher welding current resulting in lower residual stress at welded joint, which means lower risk of cracking after EBW. The results of this study have been successfully applied to industrial production.

This research aims to study the dissimilar tailor-welded blanks between DP590 and DP980 dual phase steels using the autonomous GTAW process. The summarized results are as follows. It was found that utilized welding parameters in DP590 and DP980 steel butt joint were able to achieve complete penetration joint and there were not any defects. Furthermore, the dissimilar weld zone produced the hardness profilevalue between the DP590 and DP980 base metal. In particularly, DP590-HAZ region resulted in harden zone. Meanwhile, DP980-HAZ region induced a soften zone. By the way, the harden DP590-HAZ exhibited fine columnar martensite with a ferrite matrix. On the other hand, the soften DP980-HAZ represented a tempered martensite structures. Comparing the tensile test was carried out in order to investigate dissimilar welded joint strength in the different rolling directions. It was suggested that the specimen welded along to rolling direction was evidently larger tensile strength (1092 MPa) than the welding transverse to rolling direction (638 MPa). Moreover, the weakest fracture occurred apparently on the region of DP590-BM rather than the HAZ region.

To improve the weld quality of AA 5083 plate using AA 5356 filler rod, an automatic TIG welding system is developed, by which welding speed can be controlled and a uniform speed is obtained. Welding of aluminium 5083 plate is carried out for different welding currents and welding speeds. In this work, the effect of welding speed and current on, the tensile strength of the weld, hardness at the three different zones viz. weld metal, HAZ and base metal are investigated. The temperature is measured at the HAZ and base metal. The hardness and temperature on the weld zone and the base metal are greatly influenced by the welding speed and current. It is found that the weld strength is influenced by different values of weld current and speed, but sometimes with high current, welding speed has no specific effect on the tensile strength of the weld. The effect of material deposition rate on the weld strength in uniform welding is studied. The weld thickness to width ratio is an important aspect in the analysis of weld strength. The values obtained for current and speed are taken for optimizing the strength and hardness, using Taguchi method and utility concept.

The lightweight titanium alloys possess good resistance to corrosion and temperature. They are used in turbine engines and aircraft structures. The strength of weld joint is dependent on thermal history in the weld zone and the weld bead geometry. The quality of weld can be improved by specifying the optimal welding parameters. Trial-and-error experimental methods are time-consuming and expensive. This paper deals with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models to carry out three-dimensional thermo-fluid analysis. Buoyancy and Marnangoni stress are incorporated. Temperature dependent properties of Ti-6Al-4V alloy and the process conditions are specified for generating the weld bead profile. The CFD model is validated initially through comparison of existing test data. Further studies are made by conducting tests on the pulsating laser welding of Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The effects of welding speed, pulse width and pulse frequency on the weld bead geometry are examined. This study confirms the adequacy of modeling and simulations of weld bead geometry with test results.

The aim of this paper is to present the simulation and experiment of the welding butt-joint aluminum alloys to low carbon steel using Visual-weld software and the metal inert gas (MIG) welding process. The workpiece is set up in a virtual environment with an area of 150 x 70 x 5 mm, a welding speed at 3.5 mm/s, and a heating source of 2.5 kW. The finite element method (FEM) is used as a powerful tool in simulating, calculating and predicting the welding stress and distortion at the early stage of the design process and development of welding products. The metallurgical process, deformation, hardness, etc. are investigated using the FEM in Sysweld software. The microstructure of the intermetallic layer is observed using scanning electron microscopy. The hardness of the intermetallic layer is examined using Vickers hardness testing. Tensile strength and bending strength are examined by tensile and compress multimeter equipment. To improve the quality of the aluminum/steel welds, the IMCs layer should be as small as possible. The experimental results are better if the welding current of range of 95 – 100 A and the welding speed is from 3.5 to 4 mm/s.
