Simple butt welds were produced using a particular metal and a variety of combinations of current, voltage, and welding velocity. Four metals possessing quite different physical properties were utilized. Coated stick electrodes and a d-c power source were employed and penetration was measured for each combination of work material and welding conditions. With the use of dimensional analysis, an expression was derived to predict penetration as a function of operating conditions and the physical properties of the metal welded. Within the range of variables investigated, the correlation between predicted values and measured values was quite reasonable.

The Relationship

Offshore structures are exposed to severe operating conditions because energy resource development has recently extended toward deeper seabed and lower temperature regions. Hence, fracture toughness evaluation for very thick and high strength steels is one of the most important parameters required for the structural integrity assessment of offshore structures. Fracture toughness is known as a property which describes the ability of a material containing a crack to resist unstable brittle fracture. Crack tip opening displacement (CTOD) and J integral are the most commonly employed parameters as fracture criteria in elastic plastic fracture mechanics (EPFM). There have been extensive research efforts to clarify the relationship between CTOD and J integral in elastic plastic regime. Plastic constraint factor (PCF) in the relationship between CTOD and J integral can serve as a parameter to characterize constraint effects in fracture involving plastic deformation. In this regard, the characteristics of the PCF are of significant importance in EPFM analysis. In this study, we evaluated fracture toughness of American Petroleum Institute (API) 2 W Gr. 50 steel in terms of CTOD in various temperatures using single edge notched bend (SENB) specimens. Test specimens are fabricated by submerged arc welding (SAW) and flux cored arc welding (FCAW). In addition, CTOD values are compared to absorbed impact energy with respect to the weld metal (WM) and heat affected zone (HAZ). Then, we investigated PCFs with respect to several regions of the weldment at various temperatures. Experimental values of PCFs were calculated and then compared against the predicted values according to the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) standard. CTOD values of WM by SAW is found to be about three times higher than that of FCAW at −10 °C, and CTOD values calculated by the ASTM standard are approximately 30% lower than the CTOD according to British Standard (BS). In addition, the maximum of 40% discrepancy is observed in PCFs obtained between the experiment and the predicted values according to the ASTM standard. This may lead to too conservative fracture toughness estimation for the welded joints of API 2 W Gr. 50 steel when using PCF by ASTM. Based on the accurate estimated PCF values obtained from this study, it is believed that rational fracture design of offshore structures is possible.

Noise Measurements

ABSTRACTThe series resistance limits the linearity of photodiodes and decreases the efficiency of solar cells. It is usually determined from IV-measurements for moderate and high forward current density. This method, however, provides only partial information about Rs, since the series resistance depends on the operating point. An alternative method is based on noise measurements. System noise of the measuring system with a low-noise current-voltage converter has been investigated. A new method for extraction of photodiode series resistance from noise measurements is suggested. Noise measurements are carried out for a-Si:H pin diodes. The series resistance of an amorphous pin diode has been extracted for different operating conditions using the new measurement method.

Welding Processes

In recent years, the demand for resilient welded structures with excellent in-service load-bearing capacity has been growing rapidly. The operating conditions (thermal and/or structural loads) are becoming more stringent, putting immense pressure on welding engineers to secure excellent quality welded structures. The local, non-uniform heating and subsequent cooling during the welding processes cause complex thermal stress—strain fields to develop, which finally leads to residual stresses, distortions, and their adverse consequences. Residual stresses are of prime concern to industries producing weld-integrated structures around the globe because of their obvious potential to cause dimensional instability in welded structures, and contribute to premature fracture/failure along with significant reduction in fatigue strength and in-service performance of welded structures. Arc welding with single or multiple weld runs is an appropriate and cost-effective joining method to produce high-strength structures in these industries. Multi-field interaction in arc welding makes it a complex manufacturing process. A number of geometric and process parameters contribute significant stress levels in arc-welded structures. In the present analysis, parametric studies have been conducted for the effects of a critical geometric parameter (i.e. tack weld) on the corresponding residual stress fields in circumferentially welded thin-walled cylinders. Tack weld offers considerable resistance to the shrinkage, and the orientation and size of tacks can altogether alter stress patterns within the weldments. Hence, a critical analysis for the effects of tack weld orientation is desirable.
