Effect of the welding heat input on residual stresses in butt-welds of dissimilar pipe joints
اثر ورودی حرارت جوشکاری بر تنشهای پسماند در جوشهای لب به لب اتصالات لوله غیرمشابه

ABSTRACT
This study used finite element techniques to analyse the thermo-mechanical behaviour and residual stresses in dissimilar butt-welded pipes. The residual stresses at the surface of some weld specimens were measured experimentally by using the hole-drilling method. The results of the finite element analysis were compared with experimentally measured data to evaluate the accuracy of the finite element modelling. Based on this study, a modelling procedure with reasonable accuracy was developed. The developed finite element modelling was used to study the effects of welding heat input on magnitude and distribution of welding residual stresses in butt-welded pipes made of ferritic and austenitic steels. The hoop and axial residual stresses in dissimilar pipe joints of 8 mm thick for V-groove shape were studied. It is shown that the welding heat input has a significant effect on magnitude and distribution of residual stresses in the stainless steel side of the studied joints.
Numerical and experimental study of thermally induced residual stress in the hybrid laser–GMA welding process
مطالعه عددی و تجربی تنش پسماند حرارتی در فرآیند جوشکاری لیزری هیبریدی-GMA

ABSTRACT
A model based on a double-ellipsoidal volume heat source to simulate the gas metal arc welding (GMAW) heat input and a cylindrical volume heat source to simulate the laser beam heat input was developed to predict the temperature field and thermally induced residual stress in the hybrid laser–gas metal arc (GMA) welding process. Numerical simulation shows that higher residual stress is distributed in the weld bead and surrounding heat-affected zone (HAZ). Effects of the welding speed on the isotherms and residual stress of the welded joint are also studied. It is found that an increase in welding speed can reduce the residual stress concentration in the as-weld specimen. A series of experiments has been performed to verify the developed thermo-mechanical finite element model (FEM), and a qualitative agreement of residual stress distribution and weld geometrical size is shown to exist.
Creep in amorphous metals
خزش در فلزات آمورف (شیشه فلزات)

ABSTRACT
This paper reviews the work on creep behavior of amorphous metals. There have been, overthe past several years, a few reviews of the mechanical behavior of amorphous metals. Ofthese, the review of the creep properties of amorphous metals by Schuh et al. though oldestof the three, is particularly noteworthy and the reader is referred to this article publishedin 2007. The current review of creep of amorphous metals particularly focuses on thoseworks since that review and places the work prior to 2007 in a different context where newdevelopments warrant.
Forming metal powders by electrolysis
ساخت پودرهای فلزی توسط الکترولیز

ABSTRACT
Fossil fuels will eventually be replaced by renewables. Currently, the most feasible and efficient way of utilising renewable energy is to convert it to electricity. In response to this change, fossil energy-based pyrometallurgical processes will inevitably shift to electricity driven processes. This chapter considers the feasibility of direct conversion of mineral to metal powder using a new electrochemical method, the FFC Cambridge process. The discussion will be on the background of electrometallurgy and powder metallurgy, the principles of the new process and its application for metal powder production, and the direct route from oxide precursors to alloyed powders.

اثر سرعت جوشکاری و توان بر تنش پسماند

مطالعه ای با استفاده از شبیه سازی و اعتبارسنجی تجربی

ABSTRACT
The temperature distribution and residual stresses for a GTAW circumferential butt joint of AISI 304 stainless steel using numerical simulation have been evaluated. For evaluation of weld induced residual stresses, the analysis of heat source fitting was carried out with heat inputs ranging from 200 to 500 J/mm to arrive at optimal heat input for obtaining proper weld penetration and heat affected zone (HAZ). For this chosen heat input, the influence of different weld speeds and powers on the temperature distribution and the residual stresses is studied. The heat source analysis revealed the best choice of heat input as 300 J/mm. The residual stresses on the inner and outer surfaces, and along the radial direction were computed. Increase in temperature distribution as well as longitudinal and circumferential residual stresses was observed with the increase in weld speed and power. The validity of the results obtained from numerical simulation is demonstrated with full scale shop floor welding experiments.
Sintering behavior and dielectric properties of BaTiO3 ceramics with glass addition for internal capacitor of LTCC
رفتار سینترینگ و خواص دی الکتریکی سرامیک های BaTiO3 با افزودنی شیشه برای خازن داخلی LTCC

ABSTRACT
The addition effects of ZnO–B2O3–SiO2 (ZBS) glass on both the sintering behavior and dielectric properties of BaTiO3 were investigated in developing low-temperature-fired BaTiO3-based ceramics for LTCC devices. X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and a dilatometer were used to examine the effect of ZBS glass on BaTiO3 densification and the chemical reaction between the glass and BaTiO3. The results indicate that ZBS glass can be used as a sintering aid to reduce the sintering temperature of BaTiO3 from 1300 to 900 ◦C without secondary phase formation. The dielectric properties of BaTiO3 with ZBS glass sintered at 900 ◦C show a relative density of 95%, a high dielectric constant of 994, and a dielectric loss of 1.6%.
Heat Transfer and Deformation Behavior of Shell Solidification
in Wide and Thick Slab Continuous Casting Mold
انتقال حرارت و رفتار تغییرشکل انجماد پوستهای در ورق بزرگ و ضخیم قالب ریختهگری پیوسته

ABSTRACT
The shell solidification in continuous casting mold is a rather complex process that is coupled with thermal and mechanical behaviors, which are related to numerous of defects occurring in slabs surface and subsurface during practical continuous casting. Intending to increase the understanding of shell thermal and mechanical behaviors in continuous casting molds to improve the casting process, numerous studies[1-13] have been conducted over the past few decades by numerical simulation. However, among these previous studies, most of the mathematical models neglected the effects of mold flux film on shell heat transfer[1-6,11] or assumed that the mold flux film distribution in shell/mold gap was uniform or changed linearly with the mold height[7-10,12,13]. It is obvious that the assumptions did not conform to the actual case of practical continuous casting that the mold flux film in mold distributes dynamically both along mold height and circumference with the evolutions of shell/mold gap and shell temperature, and affects the shell thermal and mechanical behaviors greatly.

Effect of Vibration during GTAW Welding on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Ti6Al4V
تاثیر ارتعاش در طی جوشکاری GTAW روی ریزساختار و خواص مکانیکی Ti6Al4V

ABSTRACT
The drive to improve weld quality and process parameters demands the use of improved welding tech niques and materials [1]. Titanium and its alloys are considered to be the best engineering metals for indus trial applications because of their excellent strengthto weight ratio, high fatigue life, toughness, resistance to corrosion and good fatigue strength [2, 3].
Welding methods such as gas tungsten arc, resis tance, and diffusion welding have been developed in response to the expansion of the titanium industry.
Titanium alloys easily absorb harmful gases because of their high chemical activity, resulting in poor mechanical properties and unstable structure [4, 5]. Gas tungsten arc welding is the preferred method for avoiding these deficiencies [6]. The weld ing of titanium alloys often increases grain size in the welded metal and heat affected zones [7]. Fusion zones typically exhibit coarse columnar grains in response to prevailing thermal conditions during welded metal solidification [6]. These columnar grains produce inferior mechanical properties in the welds [1]. Methods of weld grain refinement include inocu with heterogeneous nucleants, surface nucleation induced by gas impingement, introduction of physical disturbance through techniques such as elec tromagnetic stirring [4]. Vibratory techniques, and pulsed current welding techniques [8].

رفتار استحاله سرد شدن پیوسته فولاد خط لولهی X70

ABSTRACT
The comprehensive mechanical properties of steel depended on the final microstructure and grain refinement. In order to obtain high performance pipeline steel, composition design and the application of controlled rolling and controlled cooling technology had become a key, especially the latter which had decisive influence on the product’s final texture and comprehensive performance in modern iron and steel material production. Along with the development of the modern rolling equipment as well as the in-depth study of controlled rolling and controlled cooling technology, the application of controlled rolling and controlled cooling technology had become an important means of fully excavating the potential of the material properties based on the existing material chemical compositions and it had got the extensive attention from modern iron and steel materials research field.
