A1 - Rethmeier, Michael T1 - On the relationship between the bulge effect and the hot cracking formation during deep penetration laser beam welding N2 - Recent studies have confirmed the widening of the weld pool interface, known as a bulge effect, during deep penetration high power laser beam welding. The link between such geometric particularities of the weld pool shape and the hot cracking phenomena is significant. The present work seeks to extend the level of understanding by investigating their relationship. A coupled multiphysics, multiscale numerical framework is developed, comprising a series of subsequent analyses. The study examines the influences of the bulge on the three most dominant effects causing hot cracking, namely the thermal cycles, the mechanical loading, and the local microstructure. The bulge in the weld pool shape forms approximately in the middle of the plate, thus correlating with the location of hot cracking. It increases the hot cracking susceptibility by enhancing the three dominant effects. The numerical results are backed up by experimental data.

The numerical results are based upon experimental results from previous studies, revealing the relationships between the bulging effect, the hot cracking formation, and the distribution of alloying elements in the weld pool. The widening of the molten pool in its middle area is observed for both complete and partial penetration welding of 8 mm - 15 mm thick structural steel sheets. The weld pool shape is extracted from the simulations to evaluate the extent of the necking and bulging of the solidification isotherm and their influence on the hot cracking formation and the mixing behavior of the weld pool. Relying on an earlier numerical study utilizing a fixed keyhole, simulation models considering a dynamic keyhole are developed thereto. The link between the bulge and the studied phenomena is found to be significant.
