Abstract:An extensive network of trunk pipelines, existing and under construction, working under hard environmental conditions necessitates the development of non-destructive testing techniques to be applied to diagnosing a current state of pipes and welded joints in the process of production and use. This paper reports on the results of the microstructural analysis and the study of the mechanical and magnetic properties of the different zones of welded joints (base metal, heat-affected zone material and weld material)… Show more
