RISK OF COLD CRACKING IN WELDING OF STRUCTURAL HIGH-STRENGTH STEELS

摘要

Mathematical model of the risk of cold cracking in welding of structural high-strength steels is considered. The model is based on distributed data on the state of microstructure, content of diffusible hydrogen and stressed state in elementary volumes within the welded joint zone. It is shown that the model makes it possible to more precisely evaluate the local conditions of cold cracking on the basis of the above parameters.
