Small specimen test techniques (SSTTs), developed for scarce materials, industrial
products, in-service equipment, etc., could be challenging to obtain sufficient materials for …

In the present study, the rupture behavior and fracture mode for the Inconel 625–9% Cr steel
dissimilar welded joints are investigated. The results reveal that the relationship between the …

Based on the practical application requirements, the weld rotor was chosen as a preferable
candidate to adapt to the higher steam temperature. In this study, the rupture behavior and …

The relationship between the microstructure evolution and the corresponding creep rupture
performance are systematically investigated. Dramatically enhanced creep rupture …

The welding heat-affected zone (HAZ) of C-HRA-2 nickel-based alloy at different welding
peak temperatures (T p)(850 to 1450 C) was obtained through welding thermal simulation …

Filler-free (FF) welding processes namely, Activated Tungsten Inert Gas welding (ATIG),
Laser Beam Welding (LBW), and Friction Stir Welding (FSW) were utilized for joining the …

As pipeline design standards require the parameters of mechanical properties, it is crucial to
characterize local properties of grith weld. Consequently, the multiscale characterizations …

The creep behaviour of dissimilar weld joint of 316LN SS-P91 steel when subjected to lower
applied stresses (below 100 MPa) generally fails in a Type-IV pattern. The dissimilar weld …

Damage evolution in a creep tested 316LN stainless steel—P91 steel dissimilar weld joint
fabricated by shielded metal arc welding has been investigated. Failure in this joint which …

The metal of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) of reactor pressure vessel of nuclear power plant
VVER-1000 was studied. Based on hardness measurement, HAZ is divided into two sub …
