Evaluation of Fatigue Performance of Press Hardening Steel Joints Welded by GMAW-CSC and PAW Processes

چکیده
The application of press hardening steels is spreading from automobiles, where crashworthiness demands are critical, to other segments, such as the agricultural and road transport industries. However, operational conditions which equipment exposed requires heavier sheet gages adapted joining processes. In this context, fatigue recognized critical failure mode. present article describes procedures results testing performed on GMAW-CSC PAW butt-welded specimens 1500 MPa steel. Both methods suitable alternatives laser welding when relatively heavy-gaged components. obtained also related heat-affected zone characteristics weld bead surfaces. Additionally, some ground-flush were tested. test indicate that both provide performance. As-welded joints ultra-high strength steel accomplished a performance similar welds conventional remarkable increase was observed after flush grinding beads. plasma process presented less good due more extensive manufacturing geometric variability. adopting arc process, in association with post-weld geometry improvement, provides competitive laser-welded steels.

Fatigue Life of Repaired Welded Tubular Joints
In this study, the effect of repair on fatigue life of tubular joints is investigated. Six cracked specimens precedently subjected to fatigue loading undergone to weld repair. Two of those specimens were shot peened before primary fatigue loading. It is shown that repair gives rise to about 150% increase in fatigue life for original specimens while the increase of fatigue life for shot-peened ...
متن کاملImproving Fatigue Strength of Welded Joints by Ultrasonic Impact Treatment
Enhancement in fatigue performance of welded joints by Ultrasonic Impact Treatment (UIT) was evaluated with large-scale rolled beam and built-up specimens having yield strength of 345 to 760 MPa. Eighteen rolled-beam specimens having welded details at cover plates and transverse stiffeners and eight built-up specimens having only transverse stiffener details were fatigue tested after treating t...

To improve the usage of material in fatigue loaded complex welded structures a better calculation method (based on FEA) is needed than what is available on the market and an improved management of weld quality. Improved FE-procedures are directly applicable to design of generic structural components within virtually all industries using CAD and FEtools, irrespective of industrial sector. More a...
متن کاملThe Influence of Ultrasonic Impact Treatment on Fatigue Behaviour of Welded Joints in High-strength Steel
The unabated growth of the steel industry and progressively increasing operating loads on metal structures generate a need for a search for optimum engineering solutions to improve the loadcarrying capacity and reduce metal consumption. One way of resolving this problem is to utilise high-strength steels. It is common knowledge however that the improvement of the steel strength is accompanied b...
متن کاملUltra low cycle fatigue of welded steel joints under multiaxial loading
Ultra low cycle fatigue (ULCF) is a phenomenon that can be summarily defined as the deterioration of material properties under high amplitude cyclic loading, under which failure is reached typically within ten to twenty cycles. This phenomenon is observed in extreme loading scenarios such as earthquakes or exceptional winds where large cyclic strains are expected. Particularly sensitive are str...
