Most of joining processes for machine and steel structure are performed by butt and fillet welding. The mechanical properties and fatigue strength of their welding zone can be effected largely by the differential of generated heat and changes of grain size according to thickness of material and number of passes in welding process. In this study, it was investigated about characteristics of fatigue failure according to thickness of material and number of passes in cruciform fillet weld zone as the basic study for safe and economic design of welding structures. Fracture modes in cruciform fillet weld zone are classified into toe failure and root failure according to non-penetrated depth. It can be accomplished economic design of welding structures considering fatigue strength when the penetrated depth in fillet weld zone is controled properly.

In this study, it was investigated about endurance limit and fatigue behavior of load carrying fillet welded cruciform joints according to welding methods of SMAW, SAW, MIG and FCAW commonly using for welding structures in present. Endurance limit carried omit highly in the order of SMAW, MIG, SAW, FCAW and fatigue crack propagation ratio carried out lowly in the order of SMAW, MIG, FCAW, SAW. By these results, it is needed to use SMAW or MIG welding methods for welding structures with small welding capacity and SAW or FCAW methods for large welding structures after due consideration about economic gains and operation efficiency of welding. Fatigue crack propagation ratio is more effected by strength of welding materials than endurance limit of welding materials according to welding methods.

In this study, endurance limit and fatigue behavior of load carrying fillet welded cruciform joints depending on commonly used welding methods such as SMAW, SAW, MIG and FCAW are investigated. In respect of endurance limit SMAW specimen showes highest result, and then MIG, SAW, FCAW in descending order. However, SMAW specimen showes lowest crack growth rate and it followed by MIG, FCAW, SAW. By these results, it is needed to use SMAW or MIG welding methods for welding structures with small welding capacity and SAW or FCAW methods for large welding structures with respect to economic benefits and operation efficiency of welding. It was also shown fatigue crack growth rate was more influenced by the strenght of welding materials than the endurance limit of welding materials.

The proportion of the welding in the production process of machinery, buildings and marine structures is increasing and the joining are mainly conducted by butt and fillet weld. In the case of fillet weld, the shape of structures is complicated depending on the constraint on the geometry of the structures, therefore, the full penetration is mostly difficult. Accordingly, it is necessary to establish safe and economical criteria of design of the structures through the strength based on the penetration state of the fillet weld. Patterns of fatigue failure in cruciform fillet weld jont appear in the form of the root, toe and mixed failure. In the case of toe and mixed failure, the fatigue strength is higher than root failure. Therefore, we have to make the enough depth of penetration or perform the welding work through improving the fatigue strength of cruciform joints in welded structures. So it is necessary to optimize the penetrated depth in the range of the possible mixed failure and find the way in the cost-effective design to lessen the amount of the welding work.

This study investigates the fatigue characteristics of SM 490 A material specimens for the railway vehicle due to the welding type. The more stress ratio decreases, the more strength of fillet welded specimen decreases. At speciallly, when the stress ratio of TN(Plate with transverse fillet welded rib) specimens decreases 0.5, 0.1, and -0.1, the fatigue limit decreases unifomly. The strength of TN is higher than it of NCN in the compare of fillet welding type, but the strength of NCN(Non load-carrying cruciform fillet welded joint) is higher than it of CN(Load-carrying cruciform fillet welded joint), which these specimens have the rib in the both side. We analysis the strains on the weld positions of the TN specimens during the fatigue test for the investigation of crack initiation and crack growth. In the theses results, we could find the fatigue crack initiation point and time.

용접에 의한 가스설비, 교량, 선박 등 강 구조물의 접합 방법은 대부분 십자형이나 T형의 필릿 용접으로 이루어지며 구조물의 형상과 용도에 따라 완전 용입 또는 불완전 용입 상태로 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 십자형 필릿용접 구조물에 대하여 재료 두께별 용입 깊이에 따른 피로 균열 특성을 파악하였고, 그 결과로부터 무한수명 영역내에서의 안전 설계응력에 대하여 고찰하였다. 미 용입 길이가 길면 루트 부 파괴가 되어 무한 수명 영역은 작고 미 용입 길이가 짧으면 토우부 파괴가 되어 무한 수명 영역은 크게 나타났다. 3층 용접한 재료 두께 20mm의 경우가 2층 용접한 재료 두께 10mm, 15mm의 경우보다 미세한 페라이트 침상 조직을 더 많게 형성시켜 노치 인성을 증가시키므로 서 피로강도와 무한 수명을 더 향상시킨 것으로 나타났다.

용접기술의 발달과 더불어 기계, 교량, 선박 그리고 가스설비 등의 제작공정을 위하여 용접의 이용이 증가하고 있다. 따라서 그들의 용접 구조물 제작을 위하여 높은 생산성과 안전설계를 고려하는 용접 법을 개발하는 것이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 재료 두께, 용접층수, 하중 방향 그리고 토우부의 노치 반경과 관련하여 완전 용입 십자형 필릿 용접부의 피로강도 및 피로수명의 특성에 대하여 기초적으로 고찰하였다. 대부분의 피로파괴는 십자형 필릿 용접의 토우부에서 발생하였다. 피로강도 및 피로수명은 토우 부의 노치 반경과 플랭크 각에 의한 응력집중의 영향을 받고 있다. 토우부의 금속이 다층 용접에 의하여 어닐링 되고 확산 되었으며 그 결과 침상 페라이트 조직이 형성되어 피로강도와 피로수명을 향상시켰다.

In this paper, plastic behavior and plastic strength of cruciform fillet welded joint under tension is investigated by finite element method. Attension is focussed, in particular, on the effect of geometry of fillet weld including its contour, size and penetration. And the approximate analysis of welded joint have been carried out from a simple model constructed by three zone, ie, base metal, heat affected zone, and weld metal.

In this study, constant amplitude fatigue tests on load-carrying fillet welded specimen carried out, and fatigue strengths were evaluated. Also, an attempt is made to develop a new analytical model with more accuracy to predict the fatigue crack propagation life of fillet welded cruciform joints of SWS 490B steels containing lack of penetration defects. from the result of this study, fatigue crack growth characteristics of load-carrying fillet welded cruciform joints, containing lack of penetration defacts are found to be affected by the weld geometry and the number of weld pass.

Fillet welded joints, specially in ship structure, are well known the critical part where stress concentrate or crack initiates and grows. This paper is concerned with the study of the behavior of fatigue crack growth t the root and toe of load carrying cruciform fillet welded joints under three points bending by the determination of stress intensity factor from the J-Integral, using the Finite Element Method. The stress intensity factor was investigated in accordance to the variation of the weld size (H/Tp). weld penetration (a/W) and plate thickness (2a'/Tp). As mixed mode is occurred on account of shearing force under the three points bending, Stern's reciprocal theory is applied to confirm which mode is the major one. The main results may be summarized as follows 1) The calculation formula of the stress intensity factor at the both of root and toe of the joint was obtained to estimate the stress intensity factor in the arbitrary case. 2) The change of stress field around crack tip gives much influence on each other at the roof and toe as H/Tp decreases. 3) Mode I is a major mode under the three points bending.
