Recently many research are going on in the field of application of Laser-Arc hybrid welding for superstructures such as ship-structures, transport vehicles etc. however, the study on heat distribution and welding residual stress of hybrid weld by numerical simulation leaves much to be desired. Therefore a Finite Element based numerical comparison of heat distribution and thermal history in both the FCAW and Hybrid welding been made in this study. Based on this thermal outputs from the present model could be sequentially coupled to suitable mechanical models to predict appropriate mechanical characteristics such as residual stress.

In this paper the influence of postweld heat treatment on mechanical properties of SMAW and FCAW stainless steel weldments was examined and the obtained results are as follows ; (1) The amount of $\delta$-ferrite formed by SMAW and FCAW process decreased with increasing holding temperature and time in post weld heat treatment(PWHT), and it was found that the reduced ferrite was transformed into sigma phase after $800^{circ}C{\times}50hr$ PWHT. This sigma phase, even though it was very small, resulted in brittleness of dissimilar weldment between carbon steel and stainless steel in bending test, however in similar weldment between stainless steel and stainless steel was not occured. (2) The chemical composition of sigma phase was measured to 28-30%Cr, 7-9%Mo, 4-6Ni in 316L weldment, and also 35-37%Cr, 0.9-1.0Mo, 6-8%Ni in 309L weldment by EDS analysis.

590MPa grade weldable steels were gas metal arc welded with flux cored wires. Welding parameters such as current, voltage, and speed were varied independently. Effects of each parameter on the strength and chemical composition of weld metal were investigated. Increase of voltage caused decrease of weld metal tensile strength due to the low recovery of alloying elements such as carbon and manganese. On the contrary, increase of current and speed resulted in increase of weld metal strength because of higher recovery of the alloying elements.

주강소재 보수용접부의 품질 및 용접생산성 향상을 위해 기존 용접후열처리 조건(이하 PWHT)을 모재에 적용하는 품질열처리(이하 NTT)로의 대체 및 반자동 FCAW 용접방법의 적용 가능성을 확인하기 위해 상온 및 고온 물성평가(고온인장강도, 크리프 파단강도)를 수행한 결과, 제작 공정 측면에서 FCAW의 적용이 가능한 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 PWHT 대신 NTT를 적용함으로서 용접방법별 물성 편차가 줄어드는 NTT 열처리의 긍정적 효과가 확인되어, 궁극적으로 기존 PWHT 및 NTT 모두 적용이 가능한 것으로 확인되었다.

A feasibility study on the application of self?shielded flux cored arc welding to the on-site SM520 steel bridge box fabrication for express trains and high way construction instead of gas-shield flux cored arc welding was conducted in terms of weld soundness, mechanical properties, toughness and microstructures. All welded specimens made with the self?shielded FCAW process were tested by magnetic particle and ultrasonic techniques and they were found to be sound. All multipass weld specimens made with both self-shielded and gas-shielded FCAW processes showed yield and tensile strengths of $462{\sim}549\;MPa$ and $548{\sim}640\;MPa$, respectively. The impact values of Charpy V-Notch weld specimens also met with the required value of 40J at $-20^{\circ}C$. The hardness values of the top area of weldments were higher than those of the bottom area because of higher residual stresses in the near surface. It was found that welding characteristics of SM520 steel by the on-site welding conditions with self-shielded FCAW showed almost equivalent to those by gas-shielded FCAW in terms of sound welds, mechanical properties and microstructure.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of welding conditions on the shape of arc of FCAW using high speed camera system. Length and deflection of arc were evaluated from images of arc which were transformed by threshold processing. Based on the experimental results, a regression model for the length of arc was established. A major factor affecting deflection of arc was the length of arc.

In this study, The mean weld current is used to correct depth direction, and weight-value, specially devised to check right-left deviation by placing more weight on the left- and right-most part of weld current during weaving, to correct weaving direction. The methodology of “design of experiments” was introduced to find out dorminant weld parameters affecting these for values.

In order to prevent the arc blow at the FCA welding system with multi-torches, the effects of arc length on the magnetic flux at the FCA weldment was evaluated using electro-magnetic filed analysis. Magnetic flux density around arc are slightly increased with an increase in the arc length. Based on the FEA results, the minimum distance of torches to control arc blow was established.

대형구조물 제작 시에는 세라믹백킹재 등 백킹재를 이용한 편면용접법이 많이 채용되고 있다. 이처럼 백가우징이 적용되지 않는 편면용접법으로 용접 시공 시, 표면부에 비해 루트부의 충격성능이 열화되는 경향이 있다. 본 연구에서는 세라믹백킹재를 채용한 편면용접법의 루트부의 저온 충격성능을 확보할 수 있는 용착금속의 Ni 함량에 대해 고찰하고자 한다.

The chemical composition of deposit metal by flux cored arc welding can be easily regulated though addition of deoxidizers and alloying elements in cored flux and fluxes of flux coored wire arc analogous to those of coated electrode. It is necessary to investigate the transfer and yield efficiency due to addition of necessary alloy elements in deposit metal. This report is made to intorduce an experimental equation from the relation between welding condition and extent of penetration, deposit metal and weld melt slag and to estimate transfer and yield efficiency of alloy components in fluxes through chemical analysis of deposit metal.
