This study was investigated on the impact toughness and microstructure of welded metal and heat affected zone for Hi Nitrogen TiN Steel. With welding procedures, welding heat input applied were 30, 79 and 264 kJ/cm. TiN steel has shown very small prior austenite grain size for all the welding heat input applied, which was considered to result from the effect of TiN particles. In case of single SAW and EGW welding, the dilution rate of base metal into the weld was not high, resulting that there were no significant effects of base metal chemical composition on the mechanical properties of welds. However, TSAW with double Ypreparation carried very high dilution rate so that TiN steel has impaired the toughness of weld metal because N content in the weld was increased through the dilution of base metal.

This study was investigated on the impact toughness and microstructure of welded metal and heat affected zone for B grade steel. With welding procedures, welding heat inputs applied were 30, 79 and 264 kJ/cm, Prior austenite grain size in coarse zone has increased with increasing welding heat input for B grade steel. The toughness of fusion line zone of Bgrade steel has decreased with increasing welding heat input while the toughness fusion line +3 and +5 mm zone increased contrarily.

Joining thin aluminum alloy is difficult using most welding techniques. Many of problems associated burn-through by the high heat input. Common welding techniques are TIG, MIG, and MIG-PULSE welding. The VP-GMAW provides more control of the heat balance in the welding arc by taking advantage of the different arc characteristics obtained with each of the two polarities. In this paper, we proposed new VP-GMAW method by control DSP 320C32, and the characteristic and experiment result-voltage, current, welding bead, penetration by this method are presented.

본 논문에서는 Nd-YAG 레이저 용접 프로세스를 이용하여 두께가 다른 STS304스테인레스 박강판을 대상으로한 점용접에 관한 연구로서, 레이저 용접은 미소부위에 효율적인 접합가공이 가능한 공정으로 비접촉식 가열원을 이용하기 때문에 접합공정 중 기계적 변형이 없고, 레이저 빔을 국부가열원으로 하여 매우 좁은 부분에 제한적으로 열을 가할 수 있어서 강한 금속적 결합이 요구되는 소형부품의 접합에 이용될 수 있다. 뿐만 아니라 공정 변수들을 변화시켜 실제 접합부에 들어 가는 입열량을 쉽게 제어할 수 있다는 등 많은 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 1mm이하의 스테인레스 박판에 대한 레이저 점용접을 FDM과 신경회로망을 이용하여 해석하고 용접부의 너겟 크기, 용접부 깊이 등의 형상을 예측하였다. 또한 레이저 점용접에 있어서의 주요 변수인 펄스 에너지, 펄스 타임, 박판의 두께, 두 판사이의 간극크기 등득 변화시켜 실험하고 수치해석을 검증하기 위하여 여러 가지 강에 대한 레이저 점용접 실험을 수행하였다. 또한 수치해석 시뮬레이션을 위하여 윈도우 프로그래밍을 개발하였다.

In this study, experiments of welding deformation considering dog-pieces setting were performed to assess the effect of dog-pieces on welding deformations quantitatively and an analysis method of welding deformations considering dog-pieces was proposed. Experimental results show the relationship between welding deformations and dog-pieces setting quantitatively. The maximum reduction of welding deformation was measured as 74%. The proposed numerical analysis method to predict welding deformations is one of thermal elasto-plastic analyses using a circular heat flux and finite elements model and has been verified through experiments of welding deformation. The proposed analysis method is expected to be used in a variety of fields as an analysis tool to assess or establish guidelines for a proper use of dog-pieces.

Shielded metal arc welding, one-ploe and two-pole submerged arc welding were accomplished to investigate microstructure changes on phase transformation behavior in $60kg/mm^2$ quenched and tempered high strength steel. Microstructures were examined by optical micrograph and TEM. In shielded metal arc welding (oxygen 250ppm), the inclusions were small size (0.3-0.5$\mu\textrm{m}$)and small in number. In submerged arc welding (oxygen 430-529ppm), the inclusions were larger(0.7-2$\mu\textrm{m}$) than that of shielded metal arc welding and large in number. Microstructure mainly depends on number and distribution of inclusions in fusion zone of weld metal. It was noticed that a limited number of inclusions favors the formation of acicular ferrite.

The residual stresses produced by a circumferential weld between axisymmetric cylinders are one of the most important problems concerning buckling strength, fatigue strength, stress corrosion cracking in shell structures, and arc quite different from those due to a butt weld between flat plates. This paper presents experimental studies on weld cylinder models of various heat inputs and thin cylinder diameters by blind hole drilling method. As a result, it is certified that weld residual stress (axial stress and hoop stress) is larger, as heat input and shell cylinder diameter are larger, and that experimental results show good agreement with the result of preceding researchers.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate optimum welding conditions of STS 304 thin sheet by GTA welding and control 6 $\delta$--fenite which is harmful in mechanical processing, corrosion problem and can be formed brittle a phase in using long term at high temperature. One series of automatic welds was made using argon plus 10, 20, 30 % nitrogen to ensure a fully austenite deposit. Results obtained were summarized as follows: 1) 6 $\sigma$ferrite content in the weld metals is influenced largely by the nitrogen content. 2) Additions of nitrogen to the shielding gas can significantly reduce the amount of retained delta ferrite and result in an increase in hot cracking. 3) Bead width was increased when Ar + $N_2$ shielding gas was used and travel speed was increased. 4) Ar+$N_2$ shielding gas made weld metal ductile and reduce 6 -$\delta$-ferrite.

Laser welding of metals has been widely used to improve a wear resistance and a corrosion resistance of the industrial parts. The objective of this research works is to investigate the influence of the process parameters, such as the welding for metals with CW Nd:YAG lasers. The bead-on-plate welding tests are carried out for several combinations of the experimental conditions. In order to quantitatively examine the characteristics of the butt welding, the welding quality of the cut section, stain-stress behavior and the hardness of the welded part are investigated. From the results of the investigation, it has been shown that the optimal welding condition without defects in the vicinity of the welded area and with a good welding quality is 1325W of the laser power, and 1.4m/min of laser welding speed.

Orbital GTA welding is used in the pressure pipe line of auto-mobile, LNG and plant piping. To weld the pipe line safely, to some extent, the back bead must be formed in the root pass. In the plate welding the back bead can be observed, but in the pipe welding, the back bead can not be observed directly. In the welding around circumference, the parameters such as gravity, surface tension and arc force are different at each position. And then D/B for welding condition at each position are required. We also studied about the setting of the optimum orbital welding condition by controlling heat input.
