摘要:Hybrid laser-MIG welding of 8 mm thick Q345 steel plates was carried out using different laser-to-arc heat input ratio (QRLA). The effects of QRLA on the cross-sectional macro-morphology and the microstructures in the hybrid welded joint were investigated. Development of temperature field distribution in the welding process and residual stress distribution in the welded joint under different QRLA were also analyzed. The results show that the weld bead width decreases while peak temperature in the welding process increases with elevated QRLA. The microstructure of coarse grained HAZ is mostly martensite due to the high welding speed, and the amount of martensite increases with elevated QRLA. The stress levels of equivalent residual stress, longitudinal residual stress, transverse residual stress and through-thickness stress all reduce moderately as laser power increases with QRLA in the range of 0.72~1.0. However, the stress levels of the four stresses increases slightly as laser power increases with QRLA in the range of 1.0~1.18.
摘要:To meet the requirements of weight and cost reduction at the same time, the titanium/aluminum composite structure has a good application prospect, but because of the great physical and chemical performance difference between titanium alloy and aluminum alloy, adopts the traditional welding method is difficult to form a reliable connection, and friction stir spot welding technology has great advantage in connecting dissimilar metals, current research on titanium/aluminium alloy friction stir spot welding is very little. Spot welding experiments were carried out on 2 mm thick TC4 titanium alloy and 6061 aluminum alloy by refill friction stir spot welding. Based on the response surface method, the second-order response model of welding process parameters and tensile-shear fracture load was established, and the effect of process parameters on the joint was studied. The influence of process parameters on the tensile-shear fracture load of joints was studied, and the tensile-shear fracture load of spot joints was predicted through optimization of process parameters. The experimental results show that the response model is very accurate, and the average error between the predicted value and the experimental value is about 2.41%. The best welding process parameters obtained are the welding tool speed 1 052.9 r/min, the plunge depth 2.19 mm, and the welding time 3.01s .
摘要:In this paper, an effective prediction method is proposed to predict the FSW weld deformation for the large-size structures using partition mapping of inherent strain under the local-global mapping frame. The contact state between fixtures and weldment is considered by contact constraints in the thermoelastic-plastic simulation of local structure. The detailed partition scheme is determined by the distribution characteristics of residual plastic strain on the basis of the prediction results of local structure, and the partition scheme is implemented to the global structure for the partition mapping of inherent strain. For the welding of small-size 6061-T6 aluminum alloy sheet, the weld deformations are predicted under the contact and fixed constraint states by thermoelastic-plastic simulation, and these results are analyzed and compared with the experimental data. The results show that the prediction results considering contact constraints are closer to the experimental data and can capture actual asymmetric deformation, thus it is necessary that the contact constraints between fixtures and weldment are modeled in the local structure. The proposed method is applied to the welding of large-size 6061-T6 aluminum alloy plates, and the prediction results are compared with those obtained by thermoelastic-plastic method considering the contact constraints between fixtures and weldment. The results show that the proposed method can effectively predict the welding FSW deformation of large-size plates.
摘要:Laser scanning welding is a highly efficient new laser welding technology, with unique laser beam positioning, wide scanning range, high flexibility, long working distance and other advantages, compared to traditional laser welding, its multi-point welding characteristics can largely enhance the welding efficiency. Overview of the working principle and classification of laser scanning welding technology, focusing on the laser scanning welding characteristics and research status of several common alloys such as aluminum, magnesium, titanium, copper and copper alloys, and aluminum-steel. The stirring effect of the scanning laser beam on the molten pool can effectively improve the defects in the aluminum alloy weld, the microstructure of small holes and the force changes in the welding process is a breakthrough point for future research on scanning laser welding of aluminum alloys. Laser scanning welding can significantly improve the quality of weld forming of magnesium alloys, optimization, control, adjustment of different laser scanning welding process parameters operating window and the development of relevant process specifications, as well as how to control the formation of the intermediate phase and its content is the focus of research on scanning welding magnesium alloys need to break through. An important difficulty in laser scanning welding of titanium alloys is the instability of the keyhole during the welding process, which largely affects the weld formation. The stability of the keyhole depends on its force state, so the first step is to control the movement of the laser beam (such as scanning trajectory, scanning amplitude, scanning frequency, etc.). The low absorption and high thermal conductivity of copper and copper alloys require higher laser power for scanning welding copper. The required equipment, high cost and possible inclusions limit the diffusion of the process, and more research is still needed to understand the mechanism of scanning welding of copper alloys and to overcome the problems of low process stability, large spatter and high porosity during welding. Laser scanning welding of other heterogeneous alloys such as magnesium - aluminum, aluminum - copper, magnesium - titanium, titanium - aluminum alloy will also be the focus of future laser scanning welding research. Finally, for the shortcomings in the existing research proposed laser scanning welding challenges and future development trends.

摘要:The electrode arc stability is the main factor that affects its manufacturability. In order to avoid the impact of SMAW on the evaluation of arc stability due to differences in welder skills, and it is difficult to make a true and objective evaluation of the electrode process stability. Based on the electrode welding robot, the welding electrical parameters of the E308L-16 electrode is tested through the arc analyzer, and combining the high-speed camera and other synchronous detection platforms, the characteristic information related to the metal transfer shape is extracted, and the arc stability of E308L-16 electrode is studied. The results show that by controlling the feedback control arc voltage of the welding robot, the E308L-16 electrode can achieve two different transition modes: short circuiting transfer and flux-wall guided transfer. At19 V, the main form of metal transfer is short circuiting transfer of large particles. During the welding process, the sleeve depth is small and the welding current is large. At 21 V or above, the main form of metal transfer is flux-wall guided transfer. Compared with welding current, feedback control arc voltage is the dominant factor to determine the metal transfer form. The arc stability is better when the medium and long arc operation is adopted in the test.
摘要:Numerical simulation analysis has been widely used in temperature and material flow study relate to FSW process. In this paper, three numerical simulation analysis methods—— Computational Fluid Dynamics method, Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian method, Couple Eulerian Lagrangian method——widely used in recent years is reviewed. The three methods have their own characteristics. The CFD method was adopted earlier, but this method ignores the hardening behavior of the base metal and the peeling behavior . ALE method avoid excessive distortion of the mesh during solution, but are still essentially Lagrangian meshes. The CEL method using Euler analysis is more consistent with the prediction of base metal flow, but the calculation cost is relatively high.The researcher should select the model according to the focus。Some issues in FSW study with numerical simulation method are pointed out. Finally, the development trends of numerical simulation in FSW study were also predicted.

摘要:After the impact and vibration test of rail transit vehicles, some equipment 304 stainless steel welded parts appeared fracture failure. In order to improve the mechanical properties of 304 stainless steel after welding, in this paper, by means of metallographic microscope, scanning electron microscope, hardness and tensile test, the effects of medium and low temperature heat treatment process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of 2 mm thick 304 stainless steel plate TIG welded joints were studied. It is found that the microstructure of the untreated weld is composed of γ-austenite and δ-ferrite after heat treatment at 400 ℃ for 30 min, and δ-ferrite mainly distributes in the Cr-rich zone and appears as a worm, and the content of δ-ferrite decreases to some extent after heat treatment. After heat treatment, the hardness of welded joints is lower than that of untreated ones. The yield strength of welded joints after welding is 189.5 MPa, and the strain is 64.5%. After heat treatment, the yield strength is 221 MPa, the strain is 72.7%, and the yield strength is increased by 16.6%, reaching the yield strength of base metal. The fracture surface shows ductile fracture characteristics and no significant welding defects, mainly showing deep dimples, and the dimples are distributed with second phase particles, which hinder the slip and cause stress concentration and produce micro-pits, which become one of the main craters of cracks.

摘要:Steel catenary riser (SCR) is the main component of floating platform. It is extremely prone to fatigue damage under service conditions due to the influence of various environmental factors such as ocean waves, tides and typhoons. In order to solve the problem about fatigue failure of steel catenary riser(SCR)affected by cyclic load in deep water environment, full-automatic GMAW welding process and mechanical tests were developed by using cold metal transition(CMT)for root pass and pulse mode for fill and cap pass for SCR S-lay. The test results of mechanical properties meet the requirements of SCR welding specification. The fatigue properties of all test welds meet or exceed the 95% level of confidence based on BS7608(1993) D mean curve as OD and E mean curve as ID.Because cold metal transition for root pass without backing is the technology of single side welding and double side forming, it has the advantages of smaller welding heat input and no spatter, ensuring the smooth transition between weld root forming and base metal, so as to reduce stress concentration and improve the fatigue resistance of SCR welds.

摘要:When austenitic stainless steel works in corrosive medium, it is easy to generate stress corrosion crack if residual stress exists in welded joint, so stress relief treatment is needed. The influence of different stress relieving methods and their combinations on residual stress of 304L stainless steel welded joint are studied experimentally. The results show that both the simple stress relief annealing method and the mechanical vibration aging treatment can effectively relieve the peak stress of the weld and weld toe, the stress peak drops are equivalent, and the stress relief annealing method relieves stress more uniformly. Compared with the simple vibration aging treatment, the decrease of stress peak of vibration aging + stress relief annealing method are not obvious, compared with the vibration aging after the first annealing, the stress peak of the weld reduces slightly. Compared with the simple stress relief annealing method, the stress relief annealing + vibration aging method results in a significant decrease in the stress peak.
摘要:According to the national standard GB/T1591-2018 "Low-alloy High-strength Steel" and the examples of steel structure construction, this paper analyzes the essential difference between Q355 and Q345 based upon the chemical composition of the steel. It further expounds upon the characteristics of Q355 low carbon, micro-alloy, pure purification and fine grain with the concept of carbon equivalent, which illustrates the objective fact that Q355 is a typically new type of fine grain steel. Based on the analysis, this paper only considers that the strength and grain refinement of the welded joints of high-strength steel are directly related to the micro-alloyed elements of steel. The welding thermal cycle will cause the loss of alloying elements. Therefore, the loss of alloying elements will increase after one more thermal cycle, which is unfavorable to the quality of welded joint and will inevitably reduce the comprehensive properties of the welded joint. This is the key to welding Q355 steel.
