A mechanistic model was developed for predicting carbon dioxide corrosion rates of carbon steel pipes in multiphase flow conditions. The model incorporates the chemistry, thermodynamics of carbon dioxide dissolution, multiphase mass transfer, electrochemical kinetics on the metal surface and the presence of a corrosion product film. The predicted corrosion rates show good agreement with the exp...

in iran, for column design, double i shape section is used due to lack of ipb profile. double i shape column performance is ambiguous in existing steel structures, especially when subjected to seismic loading. in this paper, double i shape column behavior is evaluated with 3d nonlinear analyses. monotonic behavior of 6 specimens and hysteretic behavior of other six specimens have been simulated...

The present study presents the influence of welding current, welding voltage, welding speed and external magnetic field on hardness of shielded metal arc welded mild steel joints. Mild steel plates of 6 mm thickness were used as the base material for preparing single pass butt welded joints. Speed of welding was provided by cross slide of a lathe machine, external magnetic field was obtained by...

Offshore windmills and pipeline networks are examples of strategic infrastructures used for the production clean energy storage long-distance transportation hydrocarbons, hydrogen water. The relevant structural elements mainly made welded portions steel pipes, which often interact with aggressive fluids hostile environments. Material aging is thus accelerated localized damage processes promoted...

The research carried out by the authors of this paper is focused on technological process Inconel 625 welding with MAG–CMT (Metal Active Gas-Cold Metal Transfer) method. was welded to substrate material, which 16Mo3 steel. Both materials are used produce so-called bimetallic tubes, in practice serve as a part equipment intended for waste incineration. For reason, tubes must withstand extreme co...

Distribution of residual stresses arising after welding is quite complex and inhomogeneous. Many factors have influence on the magnitude and the profile of the stress distribution curve. In the present paper an x-ray technique was used to analyze the residual stress distribution in steel sheets jointed by industrial welding with linear or circular weld seams. Interpretation of experimental resu...

The most common problem of welding dissimilar metals (DMWs) with respect to residual stresses is the differences in the coefficient of thermal expansion and heat conductivity of the two welded metals. In the present work, a CO2 continuous laser welding process was successfully applied and optimized for joining a dissimilar AISI 316 stainless steel and low carbon steel plates. The Taguchi approa...
