In this study, we proposed new method to mitigate tensile welding residual stress for preventing PWSCC in CRDM nozzle. Residual stress analysis using finite element method is performed to confirm benefit of the new method. In case of applying existing method, tensile axial residual stress decrease by about 28% and tensile hoop residual stress decrease by about 33%. In case of applying the new method, tensile axial residual stress decrease by about 32% and tensile hoop residual stress decrease by about 43%. Therefore, we conclude the new proposed method is more effective to prevent PWSCC than existing method.

Defective components of interest include not only homogeneous components, but also components with weldments where tensile properties vary across the weldment. Noting that the region near the weldment is the most vulnerable place for crack initiation and subsequent growth, defect assessment methods for homogeneous structure. Moreover, weldment width and crack location also affects the deformation and fracture behavior of the welded joints. These weld characteristics can evaluate using plastic limit load. So in this paper, evaluate plastic limit load both full circumference part-throughwall cracked pipes and circumference through-wall cracked pipes considering weld characteristics. And using evaluate results, proposed J-integral and crack opening displacement(COD) estimate method based on reference stress method.

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.

Microstructure and tensile property in the weld heat-affected zone (HAZ) of austenitic Fe-Mn-Al-C low density steels were investigated through transmission electron microscopy analysis and tensile tests. The HAZ samples were prepared using Gleeble simulation with high heat input welding condition of 300 kJ/cm, and the HAZ peak temperature of $1200^{\circ}C$ was determined from differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) test. The strain- stress responses of base steels showed that the addition of V improved the tensile and yield strength by grain refinement and precipitation strengthening. Tensile strength and elongation decreased in the weld HAZ as compared to the base steel, due to grain growth, while V-added steel had a higher HAZ strength as compared than V-free steel.

Five cast gamma titanium aluminides, Ti-45~48%Al-2%Nb-2%Cr (nominal composition in at. %), were laser welded and their weld cracking susceptibilities were evaluated. Laser power, traversing rate and preheat temperature were systematically varied to generate a series of welds exhibiting a wide range of cooling rate ($100^{\circ}C/s-10,000^{\circ}C/s$). As Al content increased and the weld cooling rate decreased, solidification cracking susceptibility increased while solid-state cracking susceptibility decreased. Through laser beam energy input control and preheat, it was determined possible to produce high quality laser welds.

Presently welded components are designed using S/N curves which predict only the fatigue life of the component. In order to ascertain the condition of the weld at any intermediate period of its life inspection is carried out. If cracks are detected in a weld fracture mechanics is used to find their remaining life. A procedure for assessment is developed here that can be used to verify the condition of a weld before inspection is carried out to detect cracks. This simple method has been developed using linear fracture envelopes by combining S/N curves with linear elastic fracture mechanics.

It has not been performed to inspect the underclad cracking in Korea nuclear plant since there is no Code Requirements for inspection. However, underclad cracks in nuclear pressure vessels were reported firstly in 1970. The objection of this study is to be established the ultrasonic inspection techniques for underclad cracking. The ultrasonic inspection of bimetalic stainless steel weld is very difficult by high attenuation and multiple scattering at weld surface and weld/base metal interface. The various inspection methods using $70^{\circ}$ refracted longitudinal wave, 50/70 tandem transducer, $45^{\circ}\;and\;60^{\circ}$ single shear wave are compared. Experiments on limited specimens applied same condition to nuclear pressure vessels shows that $70^{\circ}$ refracted longitudinal wave method is the best one for the detection of underclad cracks. 50/70 tandem transducer using SPOT(Satellite Pulse Observation Technique) is more effective for underclad crack sizing than other sizing methods.

An attachment part of the construction equipment frequently claimed from the crack occurrence that takes especially at the bucket. therefore we execute the fatigue examination and changes the welding method at the same materials. we executed a fatigue crack propagation experiment and got the conclusions at the normal temperature and Frequency 10Hz. We carried out butt welding for structure steel of SM490A and make three kinds of specimen of different weld method each. The fatigue limit of CASE 1 was determined to the low than CASE 2, CASE 3. the CASE 2 putting the interval of the 2mm creates back plate and make fatigue limit to high. Bead shapes and weld surfaces shape influence on fatigue life of materials. Specially, the crack growth becomes starting point that gap of back-plate and boundary surface of bead. It is confirmed by fracture showing on this study.

In this study, dissimilar friction welding were produced using 15mm diameter solid bar in chrome molybedenum steel(SCM440) to carbon steel(S45C) to investigate their mechanical properties and the relationship between the weld parameters and the nondestructive coefficients, such as AE counts and ultrasonic attenuation coefficient. The main friction welding parameters were selected to endure good quality welds on the basis of visual examination, tensile tests, Vickers hardness surveys of the bond of area and heat affected zone. The specimens were tested as-welded and post weld heat treated(PWHT). The tensile strength of the friction welded steel bars was increased up to 100％ of the S45C base metal under the condition of all heating time. The ductility of PWHT specimens is higher than as-welded.

The stress-assisted oxidation behaviour of Inconel 52 M/316 austenitic stainless-steel (SS) dissimilar weld joints (DMWJ) in a simulated pressurised water reactor environment was investigated. A corrosion galvanic couple formed between the Inconel 52 M and 316 SS due to differences in their nonferrous metal content. The electric field from the corrosion couple attracted metal cations (e.g. Fe²⁺, Cr³⁺) to the Inconel 52 M that were deposited as FeCr₂O₄. An additional corrosion galvanic couple was generated due to variations in the plastic deformation of the DMWJ. The superposition of electric fields from the different couples resulted in ridge-like oxide depositions in the fusion zone.
