The fracture toughness, $J_{IC}$ of high frequency electric resistance welded steel pipe for smooth and side-grooved CT specimen was evaluated by unloading compliance method. The crack growth, .${\delta}a$ was obtained from the equation of Donald and Saxena & Hudak, and $J_{IC}$ was determined from the curve of J-${\delta}a$ relations. The crack growth on the experiment using unloading compliance method is underestimated as compared with ${\delta}a$ measured directly by the SEM, so the reliability of $J_{IC}$ from saxena & Hudak equation is large than that from Donald. The $J_{IC}$ value of side-grooved CT Specimen is estimated less than that of smooth, and this is the effect of the side-groove, the shear-lip of crack tip and the reduction of crack tunnelling phenomena.

Welding is the most commonly used method to produce bogie and carbody of Electrical Multiple Units(EMU), because it increases the strength and lowers the weight of EMU. Since bogies are constantly exposed to repeated reacting load during acceleration and deceleration, it is also true that crack normally occurs at welding parts. In this study, we have investigated the fatigue strength of SS400 on welded parts in order to find efficiency of treatment after welding by shot peening and Post-Weld heat treatment(PWHT) with butt welded specimens. The results of fatigue test indicate that the measurement of base material specimen is 236MPa, welded specimen is 132MPa and the specimen of PWHT is 107MPa approximately. We concluded that the measurement of welded specimen and PWHT is approximately 44 and 54 percents lower than the base material specimen, respectively. Another finding is that the peened specimen is approximately 23 and 61 percents higher than the base material specimen in terms of the fatigue in strength of specimens.

Flux Cored Wire is the most widely used welding material for Flux Cored Arc Welding these days. This paper introduces the technical aspects of manufacturing FCW and the development trend of FCW for each type of steel and metal. The studies are ongoing to lower the production cost of seamless-type FCW since it has not been generally used in welding shops so far because of it high cost even though the seamless-type FCW has various advantages than folded-type FCW in terms of manufacturing technology. Meanwhile, a technical research has been carried out to develop a rutile type of FCW products which satisfies high toughness after post heat treatment. In addition, for high-speed fillet welding, there has been a development of welding materials which can be welded in Single Auto-Carriage 100 cpm or more and up to Twin Tandem 200 cpm without occurring any welding defect in order to improve the welding productivity. As Zn coated steel is being used recently to improve the corrosion resistance of the automotive parts, a research and development for Metal Cored Wire has been conducted to reduce the Si island produced in welding operation than those produced when using the former solid wires. A development of welding material that guarantees CTOD performance beyond $-40^{\circ}C$ CTOD to $-60^{\circ}C$ is underway by different steel grades, and FCW for super austenitic stainless steel is being developed as the corrosion resistant steel has been upgraded.

Recently nickel based superalloys are extensively being regarded as the materials for the steam turbine parts for hyper super critical (HSC) power plants working at the temperature over $700^{\circ}C$, since the materials have excellent strength and corrosion resistance in high temperature. In this paper, alloy 617 of solution strengthened material and alloy 263 of ${\gamma}^{\prime}$-precipitation strengthened material were prepared as the testing materials for HSC plants each other. Post weld heat treatment (PWHT) was conducted with the gas tungsten arc (GTA) welded specimens. The microstructure of the base metals and weld metals were investigated with Electron Probe Micro-Analysis (EPMA) and Scanning Transmission Electron Microscope (STEM). The experimental results revealed that Ti-Mo carbides were formed in both of the base metals and segregation of Co and Mo in both of the weld metals before PWHT and PWHT leaded to precipitation of various carbides such as Mo carbides in the specimens. Furthermore, fine ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ particles, that were not precipitated in the specimens before PWHT, were observed in base metal as well as in the weld metal of alloy 263 after PWHT.

In this study, we investigated the traits of the clad metals used in hot-rolled clad steel plates. We examined the sensitization and mechanical properties of STS 316 steel plate and carbon steel (A516) under the specific circumstances of post heat treatment and whether a weld was multilayered and thick or repeated because of repairs. The test conditions were as follows. The clad steel plates were butt-welded using FCAW/SAW, and the heat treatment was conducted at $625^{\circ}C$, for 80, 160, 320, 640, or 1280 min. The change in the corrosion resistance was evaluated in these specimens. In the case of the carbon steel (A516), as the heat treatment time increased, the annealing effect caused the tensile strength to decrease. The micro- hardness gradually increased and then decreased after 640 min. The elongation and contraction of the area increased gradually. An oxalic acid etch test and EPR test on STS316, a clad metal, showed a STEP structure and no sensitization. From the test results for the multi-layered and repair welds, it could be concluded that there is no effect on the corrosion resistance of clad metals. In summary, the purpose of this study was to suggest some considerations when developing on-site techniques and evaluate the sensitization of stainless steels.

The purpose of this study is to examine the fracture toughness of the welded pipe from the viewpoint of FATT for the S38 and S42 steels used widely as the pipe material. Post weld heat treatment(PW HT) was carried out like following conditions: temperature of 67$0^{\circ}C$, I hour of holding time and cooling in furnace. Fracture toughness was obtained by measuring the crack opening displacement(COD) of the notched specimens over the range of temperature from -14$0^{\circ}C$ to -$25^{\circ}C$. Hardness values at fusion line near around were the highest and the microstructures at welded zone were coarsened. Regardless of the pipe materials, COD and temperature curves of the as-welds were moved toward higher temperature compared with those of the parents. However, COD and temperature curves of the PWHT specimens were positioned at lower temperature compared with those of the as-welds. The more heat input causes to decrease the COD values at the constant temperature. It was verified through the recrystallization treatment that PWHT was attributed to move toward lower temperature region considerably due to the improved plastic deformation at the same applied COD value of 0.3mm and softening effect. In case of the weldment of S38 steel, cleavage fracture was observed at -105$^{\circ}C$ unlike the structural steels, in which brittle fracture mode was generally shown at - 196$^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of welding residual stress on operating stress in designing a nuclear turbine welded rotor. A two-dimensional axisymmetric finite element model is employed to calculate the residual stress before and after post weld heat treatment (PWHT), and then the superposition of residual stress after PWHT and operating stress at normal speed and overspeed were discussed. The investigated results show that operating stress can be affected significantly by welding residual stress, and the distribution trend of superposition stress at the weld area is mainly determined by welding residual stress. The superposition of residual stress and operating stress is linear superposition, and the hoop stress distribution of superposition stress is similar with the distribution of residual stress. With the increasing overspeed, the distribution pattern of the hoop superimposed stress remains almost unchanged, while the stress level increases.
