A1 - Böllinghaus, Thomas T1 - Hydrogen interaction with residual stresses in steel studied by synchrotron X-ray diffraction JF - Materials Science Forum N2 - The residual stress state in a material has an important role in the mechanism of cracking, induced or assisted by hydrogen. In this contribution, the beamline EDDI in BESSY II instrument in Berlin was used in order to investigate the influence of hydrogen upon the residual stresses state existing in a Supermartensitic stainless steel sample. The method used for investigating the residual stresses is the “sinus square ψ” method. This method involves the usage of high energy X-ray diffraction in order to measure the residual stress state and magnitude. It was found that hydrogen presence has a significant influence upon the magnitude of the residual stresses, as its value decreases with high hydrogen content. This effect is reversible, as hydrogen desorbs from the sample the residual stress magnitude gains its initial value before hydrogen charging.

This paper presents innovative filler materials, of which the phase transformation temperature was deliberately adjusted via the chemical composition. The transformation behaviour of these martensitic Low Transformation Temperature (LTT-) filler materials shows direct effects on the local residual stresses in the weld and the HAZ. These effects can purposefully be exploited to counteract the thermally induced shrinkage of the material and to produce significant compressive residual stresses in the weld. Comparative welding experiments were carried out on 690 MPa high-strength base materials using various LTT-filler materials. High energy synchrotron radiation was used for residual stress measurement. Particularly the use of high energy synchrotron radiation makes it possible to detect the residual stress condition fast without destruction of material. Thereby, residual stress depth gradients can be determined simultaneously without removing material. In steel, gradients of up to 150 µm can be resolved in such a way. Furthermore, the application of high energy radiation permits determination of residual stresses of any available residual austenite contents. Results show significant dependence of transformation temperatures on the resulting residual stress level and distribution.

T1 - Determination of residual stresses in low transformation temperature (LTT -) welds metals using X-rayand high energy synchrotron radiation JF - Welding in the world N2 - Crack and fatigue resistance are relevant evaluation criteria for welded joints and are decreased by tensile residual stresses resulting from the welding and cooling process, while compressive residual stresses can have a positive influence on the characteristics mentioned. In order to generate compressive residual stresses, a set of post weld treatment procedures is available, like shot peening, hammering, etc. These procedures have the disadvantage that they are time and cost extensive and have to be applied after welding. As another point, such technologies can only produce compressive stresses at the top surface, i.e. can only contribute to the reduction of the risk of cracks initiated at the surface, like fatigue cracks. A chance to generate compressive stresses over the complete weld joint during the welding procedure is offered by the so-called Low Transformation Temperature (LTT -) filler wires. Compared to conventional wires, these materials show lower phase transformation temperatures, which can work against coolingrelated tensile stresses, resulting from respective shrinkage restraint. In consequence, distinct compressive residual stresses can be observed within the weld and adjacent areas. The strength of these fillers makes them potentially applicable to high-strength steel welding. Welds produced with different LTT – filler wires have shown different levels and distributions of the resulting residual stresses depending on the specific transformation temperature. The transformation temperatures are determined by temperature measurement. Classical X-ray diffraction as well as diffraction methods using high energy synchrotron radiation have been used for residual stress analysis. By means of high energy synchrotron diffraction in reflection mode residual stress depth gradients can be determined nondestructively. The phase selective nature of the diffraction measurements enables the simultaneous determination of the phase specific residual stresses of all contributing crystalline phases within one experiment. The application of white beam diffraction implies recording of a multitude of diffraction lines within the energy range of the provided energy spectrum of the white beam. By this means phase specific residual stress depth distributions up to distances of 150 ìm below the surface can be analysed for steel using the energy dispersive set-up of the HMI-beamline EDDI at the Bessy site, Berlin, providing an energy range between 20-150 keV. As a side effect quantitative phase analysis can be carried out using white energy dispersive diffraction e.g. the determination of the content of retained austenite in the weld.
