Abstract:The circumferential surface crack propagation and the effect of weld-induced residual stress were analyzed to comprehensively understand the mechanical behavior and fracture resistance of dissimilar girth welded joints of steel castings. The evaluation of stress intensity factors is conducted for circumferential cracks on internal surfaces, aiming to predict the fracture toughness of dissimilar welded joints. The distribution of weld-induced residual stress is obtained by thermal elastic-plastic finite element… Show more
