It is well known that fracture initiation behavior is influenced by weld thermal straining. In the present report, attention is focused on the influence of weld thermal straining on the fracture mechanism. The influence of prestrain at elevated temperature or strain-aging on the initiation and propagation behaviors of ductile and cleavage fracture in KD32 and HT80 steels is investigated. A relationship between the increase in the lowest temperature at which a tear dimple region can be observed (Ti) or the decrease in stretched zone width and the increase in hardness at the notch tip is found.

The complexity of calibration procedure for determination of Weibull distribution parameters as well as necessity to perform FEM calculations is one of the shortcomings of conventional versions of Local Approach (LA). This report presents an attempt to ascertain interrelation between local and global characteristics of fracture of pre-cracked and notched specimens of reactor pressure vessel steels, high-strength steels etc. Criterion of cleavage fracture initiation ahead of a crack (notch) is formulated. Dimensionless parameter characterizing the effect of embrittlement by the crack or notch is proposed on the basis of this criterion. Based on the findings of low-temperature tests of pre-cracked or notched specimens of structural steels, it is proved that this parameter may be determined by both local and global characteristics.

Aluminum alloy sheet is becoming one of the main materials to take the place of steel components to reduce the vehicle mass due to the advantage of low special density, high strength and corrosion resistance. To predict the formability during the aluminium alloy sheet forming accurately, , a ductile fracture criterion developed by the authors, was for numerical simulation, in this paper. Fracture behavior in square-cup forming of the aluminium alloy LF21M was predicted by means of the criterion. Comparison of the predicted results with experimental values shows that the critical punch stroke and the fracture initiation position in square-cup forming of the aluminium alloy have been predicted successfully by the criterion.

The creep rupture behavior, and the effects of elevated temperature exposure in air and hydrogen on the subsequent room temperature properties of a 12 percent Ni-5 percent Cr-3 percent Mo maraging steel are described. Tests have been made on several heats of plate and on gas tungsten-arc, gas metal-arc, and electroslag welds. On the basis of the results obtained, maraging steels offer promise as high-strength steels for service at elevated temperatures.

Specially designed SEM in-situ tensile and fatigue tests have been conducted to trace the entire process of crack initiation and propagation till fracture in an ultra-high strength steel MA250. TiN is a typical inclusion and its average size is in the range of 8~10μm in MA250 steel. The micro-mechanism of the effect of TiN inclusion on crack initiation and propagation at tensile and fatigue tests both have been studied in detail. Experimental results show the harmful effect of TiN on tensile and fatigue properties both. This work is helpful to establish the practical life prediction model for the characteristic inclusion parameters in ultra-high strength steel components. It also enlightens us to eliminate TiN in the further development of ultra-high strength steels.
