High-strength steels with yield strengths ≥ 690 MPa are becoming increasingly significant for modern steel constructions. Both quenched and tempered (QT) high-strength steels and steels produced by the thermo-mechanically controlled process (TMCP) are currently available. TMCP-steels are usually provided with a typical mill scale. Apart from the manufacturing process these steels differ also in their chemical composition. The influence of these differences are investigated here with focus on the residual stresses formed during TIG welding. Bead on plate welds have shown characteristic residual stress distributions depending on the type of steel as well as on the heat input and preheat temperature. The following work demonstrates that the fluid flow, induced by the elements present in the mill scale, leads to a deeper penetration of the material. This can also lead to increased residual stresses in the surface of the weld and the HAZ. Furthermore, higher heat input and preheat temperature can induce higher tensile residual stresses − which are evident in the present study.
Neutron Bragg-edge imaging was applied for the visualization of a γ-Austenite to α'-martensite phase transformation. In the present study, a super martensitic
stainless steel sample was heated until complete austenitization and was subsequently cooled down to room temperature. The martensitic phase Transformation started at Ms = 190 °C. Using a monochromatic neutron beam with λ = 0.390 nm, the transmitted intensity was significantly reduced during cooling below Ms, since the emerging martensitic phase has a higher attenuation coefficient than the austenitic phase at this wavelength. The phase Transformation process was visualized by filming the transmission images from a scintillator screen with a CCD camera with a temporal resolution of 30 s and a spatial
resolution of 100 µm.
