"Improving the Weld Heat-Affected-Zone (HAZ) Toughness of High-Strength" by Yan Ma, Lihong Su et al.

The low-temperature fracture toughness of double-V weld seams is a well-known challenge due to the essential increased heat input for heavy-wall pipelines. A thorough investigation was conducted to explore the impact of the heat input on the grain size and precipitate coarsening, correlating the microstructure with the heat-affected-zone (HAZ) toughness. The results indicated that the actual weldments showed a toughness transition zone at −20 °C, with considerable scattering in Charpy V-notch (CVN) tests. Gleeble thermal simulations confirmed the decreased toughness of the coarse-grained HAZ (CGHAZ) with increasing heat input and prior austenite grain size (PAGS). A specially designed thermal treatment demonstrated its potential for enhancing the toughness of the CGHAZ, with the recommended thermal cycle involving peak temperatures of 700 and 800 °C, holding for 1 s, and rapid cooling. The toughness of the intercritically reheated CGHAZ (ICCGHAZ) improved with higher intercritical ....

"On the effect of heat input and interpass temperature on the performan" by Chengxun Zhang, Zhijun Qiu et al.

Relatively high heat input and heat accumulation are treated as critical challenges to affect the qualities and performances of components fabricated by wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM). In this study, various heat inputs, namely 276, 552 and 828 J/mm, were performed to fabricate three thin-wall Inconel 625 structures by cold metal transfer (CMT)-based WAAM, respec-tively, and active interpass cooling was conducted to limit heat accumulation. The macrostructure, microstructure and mechanical properties of the produced components by CMT were investigated. It was found that the increased heat input can deteriorate surface roughness, and the size of dendrite arm spacing increases with increasing heat input, thus leading to the deterioration of mechanical properties. Lower heat input and application of active interpass cooling can be an effective method to refine microstructure and reduce anisotropy. This study enhances the understanding of interpass temperature control and the effec ....
