The occurrence of solidification cracking during welding remains a little understood phenomenon, in spite of extensive studies and tests performed to evaluate and compare the relative weldability of many different alloys. From an approach often adopted in the welding community attributed to Prokhorov, solidification cracks are believed to form when a critical tensile strain is exceeded, specific to the alloy, assuming that the mushy-zone has limited ductility. Tensile stresses and strains normally form behind a moving weld pool as a result of solidification shrinkage and thermal contraction, as influenced by welding parameters and the degree of restraint.
