A1 - Böllinghaus, Thomas T1 - Hydrogen interaction with residual stresses in steel studied by synchrotron X-ray diffraction 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.

T1 - Multiaxiale Belastungsanalyse an dickwandigen Bauteilschweißungen aus 13CrMoV9-10 N2 - Große Materialstärken und komplexe Strukturen bewirken eine erhebliche Schrumpfbehinderung der Schweißnaht. Die aus dem Schweißprozess resultierenden multiaxialen Belastungen tragen maßgeblich zur Gesamteigenbeanspruchung einer Schweißkonstruktion bei und lassen sich nur unter realen Fertigungsbedingungen analysieren. Zur wirklichkeitsnahen Simulation der komplexen Steifigkeitsverhältnisse realer Bauteile wurden hierzu in einer speziellen 3D-Prüfanlage UP-Mehrlagenschweißungen am warmfesten Stahl 13CrMoV9-10 durchgeführt. Während der schweißtechnischen Fertigung sowie der Abkühlung auf Raumtemperatur wurden die Proben an der freien Ausdehnung und Schrumpfung gehindert. Der Einfluss der Wärmeführung, d.h. Streckenenergie (E) und Vorwärm-/Zwischenlagentemperatur (T(Pli>), auf die resultierende Bauteilbeanspruchung wurde durch in-situ Messungen der Reaktionskräfte (Fy) und Biegemomente (Mx) während des Schweißens und der anschließenden Wasserstoffarmglühung untersucht. Sowohl die Reaktionskräfte als auch die Biegemomente steigen mit zunehmender Vorwärmtemperatur an und somit erhöht sich die Beanspruchung des Wurzelbereiches. Während die Vorwärm-/Zwischenlagentemperatur einen signifikanten Einfluss auf die resultierenden Reaktionskräfte hat, ist der Einfluss auf die Biegemomente nach Abkühlung auf Raumtemperatur vernachlässigbar. Eine Erhöhung der Streckenenergie wirkt sich nur geringfügig auf die Höhe der Endreaktionskraft aus, beeinflusst aber signifikant das resultierende Biegemoment nach erfolgter Abkühlung auf Raumtemperatur.

The causes of hot cracking can ultimately be attributed to the occurrence of metallurgical effects and to structural loads. More than 140 hot cracking test procedures have hitherto been developed for determining the hot cracking resistance. In principle, they are divided in self-restraint and externally loaded hot cracking tests with diverse process variants. Only some of the hot cracking tests are international standardized. Although various factors are known that encourage or prevent hot cracking, it is often not possible even with defined welding conditions to draw immediate conclusions about the hot cracking resistance of a welded component alone from a metallurgical composition of the base and filler materials. Based on an evaluation of the existing theories relating to hot cracking susceptibility assessment, this study summarizes the major hot cracking test procedures and highlights the application limits of the test procedures by presenting overviews along with explanations. It shows that weld hot cracking tests can generally be used to rank materials, welding consumables, and welding conditions. The evaluation of hot cracking test results and of their transferability among one another and to real components always requires consideration of the close relationships between metallurgy, welding process, and parameters, respectively, and prevailing restraint conditions.

These steels differ in the carbon and micro-alloying element content. With variation of heat control TIG-welded dummy seams on both steel types were performed. Analyses concerning microstructure and residual stress evolution due to welding showed typical stress distributions according to common concepts.

Therefore TRIP-steels are widely used in the automobile industries. The aim of this work is to study the stability of involved phases during heating and to identify the kinetics of the occuring phase transformations. For that purpose, in-situ diffraction measurements, using high energy synchrotron radiation were conducted. The analysis revealed the decomposition of the metastable austenitic phase into carbide and ferrite along the heating process and the regeneration of the austenite by further heating of the sample.

A1 - Kromm, Arne A1 - Kannengießer, Thomas T1 - Residual stress in steel fusion welds joined using low transformation temperature (LTT) filler material N2 - Welding residual stress is of major concern for structural integrity assessment in industrial components. Shear and volume strains resulting from the austenite-martensite-transformation affect the development of residual stress during welding. Controlling the phase transformation allows adjustment of the welding residual stress. Low transformation temperature (LTT) weld filler materials exhibiting reduced MS-temperatures allow postponing the phase transformation. The associated strain arising from the delayed transformation compensates for the thermal contraction strains and as such may reduce tensile or even introduce compressive residual stress. In this article we discuss the tri-axial residual stress distribution in 15 mm S690Q steel plates joined with LTT filler materials with 10 wt% Cr and a Ni-content that varies from 8 to 12 wt%. Using complementary synchrotron X-ray and neutron diffraction stress analysis the macroscopic residual stress was derived from the phase specific lattice strain and phase fraction of martensite and retained austenite, respectively. The local phase specific unstrained lattice parameters were determined using stress relieved combs. The investigation revealed increasing phase fraction of retained austenite with increasing Ni-content. Further, independent of the Ni-content in each weld in the fusion zone, significant compressive residual stresses were found in the longitudinal direction, which are balanced by tensile residual stresses in the heat affected zone (HAZ). In the weld transverse and normal direction the stress distribution is qualitatively similar but less in magnitude. The increased amount of retained austenite reduces the compressive stress arising from shear and volume strains during the delayed phase transformation and therefore no significant increase in compression was observed for decreasing MS-temperatures.

This permits deliberate adjustment of welding residual stresses. Even though numerous investigations can be found in the literature on this issue, they provide only little insight into the interaction between phase transformation and resulting welding residual stresses. For this purpose, a component weld test was performed in a special large-scale testing facility. The results illustrate that the desired residual stress control by using LTT alloys is actually feasible. With increasing shrinkage restraint, however, higher tensile residual stresses are formed in transverse direction of the weld. By contrast, the residual stress level in longitudinal weld direction is nearly independent of the restraint conditions. On-line stress analysis revealed that the amount of stress reduction during cooling of the individual weld runs is dependent on the weld volume undergoing phase transformation. Overall, evidence was furnished that the approach of residual stress engineering by LTT alloys is suitable even in the case of large-scale multilayer welding.

High resolution FEG-SEM has been used to characterize fine bainitic ferrite, martensite and nanosized second phases at simulated coarse and fine grain HAZs. It was found that for Ti bearing steel (Ti/N ratio is 2) austenite grain had the slowest growth rate due to the presence of most stable TiN. The fine cuboidal particles promoted intragranular acicular ferrite (IGF) formation. Nb bearing steel exhibited relatively weaker grain growth retardation compared with titanium bearing steels and a mixed microstructure of bainite and martensite was present for all simulated HAZs. IGF existed at coarse grain HAZ of Ti+V bearing steel but it was totally replaced by bainite at fine grain HAZs. Hardness result was closely related to the morphology of bainitic ferrite, intragranular ferrite and second phases within ferrite. The microstructure and hardness results of different simulated HAZs were in good agreement with welded experimental results.
