Welding Metallurgy and Weldability of Stainless Steels, the first book in over twenty years to address welding metallurgy and weldability issues associated with stainless steel, offers the most up-to-date and comprehensive treatment of these topics currently available. The authors emphasize fundamental metallurgical principles governing microstructure evolution and property development of stainless steels, including martensistic, ferric, austenitic, duplex, and precipitation hardening grades. They present a logical and well-organized look at the history, evolution, and primary uses of each stainless steel, including detailed descriptions of the associated weldability issues.

Describes the weldability aspects of structural materials used in a wide variety of engineering structures, including steels, stainless steels, Ni-base alloys, and Al-base alloysWelding Metallurgy and Weldability describes weld failure mechanisms associated with either fabrication or service, and failure mechanisms related to microstructure of the weldment. Weldability issues are divided into fabrication and service related failures; early chapters address hot cracking, warm (solid-state) cracking, and cold cracking that occur during initial fabrication, or repair. Guidance on failure analysis is also provided, along with examples of SEM fractography that will aid in determining failure mechanisms. Welding Metallurgy and Weldability examines a number of weldability testing techniques that can be used to quantify susceptibility to various forms of weld cracking.  Describes the mechanisms of weldability along with methods to improve weldabilityIncludes an introduction to weldability testing and techniques, including strain-to-fracture and Varestraint testsChapters are illustrated with practical examples based on 30 plus years of experience in the fieldIllustrating the weldability aspects of structural materials used in a wide variety of engineering structures, Welding Metallurgy and Weldability provides engineers and students with the information needed to understand the basic concepts of welding metallurgy and to interpret the failures in welded components.

A comprehensive survey of the metallurgical and weldability issues associated with the welding of lightweight alloys The use of lightweight alloys commonly appears in numerous industries, including aerospace, defense, automotive, energy, electronics, and healthcare. The increasing and broader utilization of these high-performance materials and the need to effectively join these alloys is of utmost importance to these industries in order to enhance product functionality and operational efficiency, limit failures, and perhaps decrease cost. Welding Metallurgy and Weldability of Lightweight Alloys is an essential resource for those seeking a strong fundamental and applied knowledge of this important skill—from weldability principles to the practical selection of materials, and from welding processes to process parameters, as well as post-weld processing to optimize weld properties and performance. The book also provides an in-depth discussion of the influence of alloy chemical composition, welding process, and associated thermal cycles on weld solidification, solid-state phase transformation, microstructure evolution, and mechanical properties. Finally, the authors delve into the origin and prevention of weld defects, such as porosity, and how to conduct a proper failure analysis of the welded lightweight alloy structures. Welding Metallurgy and Weldability readers will also find: Description of applications of welding metallurgy principles using practical problem-solvingCase studies that illustrate the lessons described in the bookCoverage of the welding and joining of composites and intermetallics according to the aluminum, titanium, and magnesium alloy systemsExploration of tests for weld solidification cracking, HAS liquidation cracking, and solid-state crackingA large number of photos, graphical presentations, and data to support and enhance discussionWelding Metallurgy and Weldability is a useful textbook for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, and a helpful reference for engineers, scientists, and technicians.

This book provides in-depth analysis and discussion of cracking phenomena associated with welding and additive manufacturing. Experts from around the world have contributed papers that describe cracking phenomena in a wide range of engineering materials, including steels, stainless steels, nickel-base alloys, and other nonferrous alloys. Cracking during both welding and additive manufacturing is presented and discussed. This proceedings follows from four previous conferences on the topic of cracking in welds and expands the focus to cracking associated with additive manufacturing processes.
