Effect of Material Properties on the Plastic Straining Capacity of Defective Welds

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper describes the effect of the interrelation between the base and weld metal postyield characteristics on the CMOD (Crack Mouth Opening Displacement) and the straining capacity of a defective weld. The effect is discussed and illustrated by means of test data obtained from standard CTOD and tension loaded wide plate tests.
