How reliable are prediction and measurement of weld residual stresses? Lessons from the NeT Network

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

The Task Groups of the NeT European Network undertake closely controlled round robin studies examining the prediction and measurement of residual stresses in thoroughly characterised welded benchmarks. Task Groups 4 and 6 are examining three-pass slot welds in plates made from AISI316L(N) and Alloy 600 respectively. A very large body of independent RS measurements and simulations have been performed, giving a unique insight into the real-world reliability of both RS measurements and finite element simulation of welding. This paper reviews NeT Task Groups 4 and 6, and considers their
implications for modelling of welding processes.
