The microstructure and mechanical properties of the heat-affected zone welded using the GTAW process on SDSS material used in offshore structures were analyzed. The chemical composition of the specimen material was analyzed using XRF. The microstructure of the heat-affected zone where the plate was welded was examined by SEM, and the ferrite volume fraction was assessed using the point count method of ASTM E562. A lot of ferrite was formed in the overheated weldment region, and In the weld cap where the cooling rate was fast, ferrite was not converted back to austenite and the microstructure was not uniform. From the ferrite phase fraction, it was shown that it can be applied to the pitting resistance equivalent numbers through changes in mechanical properties according to welding conditions.

Aluminum material, which has excellent corrosion resistance, durability, and light weight, is widely used in the field of shipbuilding, and welding is an essential technology in shipbuilding. currently, welding is efficiently used to assemble structures of various sizes in the shipbuilding process, but aluminum is a very sensitive material at high temperatures and in a molten state, so appropriate process control is essential. research on aluminum welding has been continuously conducted, but most of the research is on the butt welding method. therefore, in this study fillet welding experiments, which are essentially applied to the internal structure of aluminum ships, were performed and the correlation between welding beads and process variables was identified. for the welding experiment GMA fillet welding was performed on Al5083 material used in the shipbuilding industry, and the influence of the process variable was confirmed by analyzing the correlation through the analysis of the etched fillet weld bead cross section for the test result according to the process variable.

In Korea, most nuclear power plants were designed based on the design response spectrum of Regulatory Guide 1.60 of the NRC. However, in the case of earthquakes occurring in the country, the characteristics of seismic motions in Korea and the design response spectrum differed. The seismic motion in Korea had a higher spectral acceleration in the high-frequency range compared to the design response spectrum. The seismic capacity may be reduced when evaluating the seismic performance of the equipment with high-frequency earthquakes compared with what is evaluated by the design response spectrum for the equipment with a high natural frequency. Therefore, EPRI proposed the inelastic energy absorption factor for the equipment anchorage. In this study, the seismic performance of welding anchorage was evaluated by considering domestic seismic characteristics and EPRI's inelastic energy absorption factor. In order to reflect the characteristics of domestic earthquakes, the uniform hazard response spectrum (UHRS) of Uljin was used. Moreover, the seismic performance of the equipment was evaluated with a design response spectrum of R.G.1.60 and a uniform hazard response spectrum (UHRS) as seismic inputs. As a result, it was confirmed that the seismic performance of the weld anchorage could be increased when the inelastic energy absorption factor is used. Also, a comparative analysis was performed on the seismic capacity of the anchorage of equipment by the welding and the extended bolt.

In this study, SM45C-STKM13B hollow shaft of different thickness was joined by friction welding. After friction welding, we treated to specimen of annealing(post-weld heat treatment). The specimens were tested as-welded and post-weld heat treatment(PWHT). The mechanical properties including tensile test and vickers micro-hardness were examined. And then, the mechanical properties were compared for as-welded and PWHT in SM45C to STKM13B. Microstructure of joining part were examined in the weld interface and weld region and heat affected zone and base metal of weld parts.

구조용 강재의 용접부는 강재(Base metal, BM), 용접모재(Weld metal, WM), 열영향부(Heat affected zone, HAZ)로 구성된다. 용접부를 구성하는 이들 세 부분의 구조적 성질은 서로 다를 것이므로, 강재의 용접부의 구조 거동은 BM, WM, HAZ로 구성된 복합체의 거동으로 고려할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 용접부를 구성하는 BM, WM, HAZ 각각의 탄성계수를 나노압입으로 도출하고, 이들의 복합거동(composite action)을 고려한 용접부의 등가탄성계수(equivalent elastic modulus)를 산정하였다.

국내에서 개발중인 콘크리트 저장용기는 방사성 물질의 격납 건전성을 유지하기 위하여 내부에 캐니스터를 포함하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 콘크리트 저장용기 내부 캐니스터의 뚜껑 용접시, 용접시간 저감과 이에 따른 캐니스터 용접부의 구조적 건 전성을 확보하기 위한 방안으로, 정상, 비정상 및 사고조건에서 캐니스터 용접부 균열을 진전시키는 하중에 의해 발생되는 균열 깊이를 분석하여, 용접부의 최대 허용결함깊이를 평가하였다. 정상, 비정상 및 사고조건에서의 구조해석은 범용 유한 요소해석 프로그램인 ABAQUS를 사용하였으며, 허용결함깊이는 ASME B&PV Code Section XI에 따라 막응력과 조합하중 에 대해 평가하였다. 평가결과 콘크리트 저장용기의 캐니스터 용접부의 허용결함깊이는 18.75 mm로 평가되었으며, 이는 NUREG-1536에서 권고하고 있는 임계결함깊이를 만족하고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The relationship between the addition of metallic additives and the geometry of gas metal arc weld deposit were studied by using Φ1.6mm flux-cored wire designed for hypo-eutectic Fe-Cr-C-Si hardfacing. It was found that the addition of metallic additives, such as Mn, Ti, Al and Si, by less than 0.5wt.% of the overall wire weight affected the dilution of weld deposit by changing the metal transfer mode during welding. The lowest dilution for each additives could be obtained at the transition point between spray and short circuit modes. The bead width was considered to be affected by the increase of arc length due to the oxidizing effect and by the molten pool flow behavior due to the Marangoni effect. Among additives, Mn and Al are considered to be effective in increasing bead width by decreasing the sulfur level and by inducing Marangoni flow directly at the molten pool, respectively.

용접접합부 균열의 파괴역학적 해석을 위해서는 용접중에 발생하는 잔류응력해석과 파괴해석이 병행되어야 한다. 잔류응력이 존재하면 J-적분은 더 이상 적분경고에 관계없이 인정한 값을 갖는 특성을 잃어버리게 된다. 또한 균질한 재료와는 달리 이종재료 계면균열에서는 균열선난에서 Mode I과 Mode II의 파괴거동이 동시에 발생한다. 그러므로 이종강재 용접접합부 균열의 J-적분 해석을 위해서는 이종강재 용접시 발생하는 잔류응력이 존재하는 경우에도 적분경로에 관계없이 일정한 값을 갖는 새로운 J-적분식이 도입되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 J-적분을 수정하여, 이종강재 용접시 발생하는 잔류응력이 존재하는 경우에 경로 독립성을 유지하는 J-적분을 고찰하고, 이를 이용하여 잔류응력과 외력이 동시에 작용하는 균열선단에서의 J-적분을 해석할 수 있는 프로그램을 개발하였다. 자체개발한 탄소성 해석프로그램을 이용하여 이종강재 용접시 잔류응력과 외력에 대한 응력분포를 계산하였으며, 이를 이용하여 잔류응력과 외력의 복합하중에 대한 J-적분을 계산하였다.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the ultimate strength of carbon steel (SS400) fillet-welded connections with weld metal fracture through monotonic tensile test. Specimens of CTFW series (transverse fillet weld against loading direction), CLFW series (longitudinal fillet weld against loading direction) and CFW series (a combination of transverse weld and longitudinal weld) failed by tensile fracture, shear fracture and block shear fracture, respectively. Test strengths were compared according to welding direction and weld length

In this study, structural behaviors such as ultimate strength and fracture shape of duplex stainless steel (STS329FLD) fillet-welded connections according to welding direction were investigated through monotonic tensile test. Main variables are weld length and welding direction against the loading direction. Specimens of SDTFW series (transverse to the loading direction) and SDLFW series (longitudinal to the loading direction) failed by tensile fracture and shear fracture, respectively. Ultimate strengths got higher with the increase of weld length and SDTFW series showed higher ultimate strengths than SDLFW series.
