Studies on the Effect of Mechanical Vibration on
the Microstructure of the Weld Metal
تحقیقات در مورد اثر ارتعاش مکانیکی روی ریزساختار مادهی جوشکاری
ABSTRACT
The solidification process in the weld metal produces solidification structure. The solidification process depends on the thermal gradient, solidification speed and the alloy content. These structures can be planar, cellular, columnar dendritic and equiaxed dendritic. The solidification process may change from planar to cellular, columnar dendritic and equiaxed dendritic across the weld metal zone as shown in fig.1. Three grains are shown to grow epitaxially from the fusion line. A short distance away from the fusion line, solidification changes to the cellular mode. Further away from the fusion line, the solidification changes to columnar dendritic mode. Near the weld centre line equiaxed dendrites nucleate and grow, blocking off the columnar dendrites. Each one of these structures would affect the hot cracking susceptibility in greater or smaller extent.
