Butt welding-brazing of steel to aluminum by hybrid laser-CMT
摘要： A laser penetration welding-brazing combined with Cold Metal Transfer (CMT) arc, was proposed to improve weld shape and interfacial reaction inhomogeneity of 5052 aluminum alloy and Q235 low carbon steel with ER5356 welding wire in butt joint. The effects of wire feed speed, beam offset and welding speed on weld shape, interfacial microstructures and tensile strength of joints was studied. This method improved the undercut defect existed in butt laser welding-brazing, obtained well-formed joints and promoted the uniform distribution of the interface reaction. The interfacial intermetallic compounds (IMCs) layer consisted of Fe2Al5 and Fe4Al13 and the thicknesses were controlled to 3-5 μm. Microstructures of weld seam was composed of α-Al and Al3Mg2. The brittle IMCs layer thickened and then the tensile strength decreased with increasing the wire feed speed. The thickness of the IMCs layer decreased but weld shape became worse when the welding speed or the offset increased. The tensile strength increased first and then decreased. The highest tensile strength reached higher than 80 MPa and the joint fractured in IMCs layer along the interface.

Analytical model for estimating bending angle in laser bending of 304 stainless steel/Q235 carbon steel laminated plate
摘要： Compared with the single-component metal plate, the stainless steel-carbon steel laminated plate (SCLP) combines the stainless steel layer and the carbon steel layer with a special preparation technique. In order to estimate the bending angle of laminated plates accurately, it is of great significance to establish an analytical model. Based on the temperature gradient mechanism, the temperature distribution equation of the SCLP is established by the piecewise function. Then, the depth of the plastic zone is calculated by the recrystallization temperature according to the temperature distribution along the thickness direction of the SCLP. Moreover, by fitting the yield strength curves of stainless steel and carbon steel, the average compressive stress of the plastic zone is calculated through the integral method. By optimizing the calculation of the plastic depth and the average compressive stress in the plastic zone, the analytical model is established based on mechanical equilibrium equations. The experimental verification shows that the average error of bending angle using the proposed model is 9.95%, while Liu’s model is 38.02%. The proposed model provides a calculation method for estimating the bending angle, which contributes to improving the accuracy of the analytical model in laser bending of SCLP.

Microstructure of intercritical heat affected zone and toughness of microalloyed steel laser welds
摘要： Microstructure of laser welds of the X70 low-carbon pipe steel was studied. High cooling rates after laser welding and non-uniform distribution of carbon in the ferrite-pearlite base metal caused formation of regions with increased microhardness (up to 650 НV) in inter-critical heat affected zone (ICHAZ). These regions consisted of finely dispersed degenerate upper bainite and martensite-austenite constituents of a slender shape and small fraction of a massive shape along the boundaries of bainite laths, as well as twinned martensite. High concentration of martensite-austenite constituents (10–16%) and residual stresses in ICHAZ, as well as a dendritic martensitic structure with carbide interlayers along the boundaries of martensite laths in fusion zone were the main reasons of sharp decrease in charpy impact energy of the welded samples. High microhardness of the laser welds was decreased down to 320 HV and their brittleness was improved by annealing. Also, in ICHAZ, degenerate upper bainite and the regions of martensite-austenite constituents decayed forming tempered sorbite and Fe2C and Fe3C carbides, respectively. Charpy impact energy of the welds doubled after annealing compared to the welds without annealing, and ductile-brittle transition temperature decreased down to –60 °С.

Assessing Fracture Surface Ductility by Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy
摘要： Hitherto there is no generally accepted quantitative parameter which, on the one hand, would reliably characterize the ductility of the whole fracture surface, and, on the other hand, could be relatively quickly measured. This circumstance substantially affects the objectivity of the fractographic analysis which effectiveness is still strongly dependent on the experience and skills of an expert. Recent studies showed that the value of the normalized fracture surface area Rs can serve as the measure of the fracture surface ductility. This parameter can be evaluated by the quantitative confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM). In the present study we investigated the Rs value for the fracture surfaces of the low carbon steel specimens tested in the temperature range from 200 to -196 °C where the steel undergoes ductile-to-brittle transition accompanied by the alternation of the fracture mode from ductile to brittle. The temperature dependence of the Rs value is found to have a sigmoidal shape with the sharp drop in the range from 100 to -100 °C. It is demonstrated that the Rs is strongly correlated with the fracture surface appearance: the Rs decreases concurrently with increasing brittleness of the fracture surface.

How the Laser Beam Energy Distribution Effect on Laser Surface Transformation Hardening Process; Diode and Nd:YAG Lasers
摘要： The laser surface transformation hardening (LSTH) of AISI 4130 steel by 1600 W high power diode laser (HPDL) and 700 W Nd:YAG lasers were investigated in this present study. The distribution influence, and the lasers beam shape; Top-hat in the HPDL and Gaussian distribution in the Nd:YAG laser, have been studied on the geometrical dimensions, and micro-hardness in hardened area (i.e.; depth, width, and angle of entry of hardened profile), micro-hardness deviation (MHD) from the row steel in geometric dimensions, and the ferrite’s percentage in hardened layer center. Microstructure evaluation of the laser hardened areas were performed by FE-SEM and optical microscopy. Based on the results, maximum hardness was created with the HPDL, and the geometrical dimension was more than the Nd:YAG laser. Also, MHD, and minor phase of ferrite in the HPDL laser surface hardening than the hardened layer in Nd:YAG laser, which is related to the higher laser absorption. Results show that, the hardened zone of HPDL is about 698 HV0.1 with 1.02 mm depth, while for Nd:YAG laser is about 698 HV0.1 with 0.98 mm depth. Comparing the results with the furnace hardening heat treatment (FHT) demonstrated that the hardness in diode laser and Nd:YAG laser hardening are 1.38 and 1.22 times of the hardness in FHT, respectively.

Enhanced photocathodic protection performance of Fe2O3/TiO2 heterojunction for carbon steel under simulated solar light
摘要： Titanium dioxide nano array (TNAs) was successfully modi?ed with Fe2O3 (FTNAs) to enhance the photocathodic protection performance for carbon steel. Fe2O3 as a sensitizer captures large quantities of light photons, resulting in a strong light harvest capability of FTNAs. Meanwhile, the bandgap of FTNAs decreased to 2.26 eV, and the photo-generated current densities were 90 and 400 mA cm?2 for TNAs and FTNAs under simulated solar light illumination, respectively. The narrowed bandgap and the sensitive photoelectric response together contribute to a good photocathodic protection performance of FTNAs, which was con?rmed by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and electrochemical noise.
