Influence of Post-Weld Heat Treatment on the Microstructure, Microhardness, and Toughness of a Weld Metal for Hot Bend

In this work, a weld metal in K65 pipeline steel pipe has been processed through self-designed post-weld heat treatments including reheating and tempering associated with hot bending. The microstructures and the corresponding toughness and microhardness of the weld metal subjected to the post-weld heat treatments have been investigated. Results show that with the increase in reheating temperatu...

Effect of Heat Input on the Weld Metal Toughness of Chromium-Molybdenum Steel

An attempt has been made to determine the strength and impact properties of Cr-Mo steel weld and base materials by varying the current during manual metal arc welding. Toughness over a temperature range from -32 to 100°C of base, heat affected zone (HAZ) and weld zones at three current settings are made. It is observed that the deterioration in notch toughness at any zone with the temperature d...

Interfacial Fracture Toughness Measurement and Improvement for Composite/metal Interfaces

Adhesive bonding is enlarging its application range as a practical method for the joining of dissimilar materials in automotives, aircrafts, microelectronics and medical devices industries replacing conventional joining techniques such as welding, bolting and riveting [1-5]. Especially for joining of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites to other structural materials such as metal, traditio...
