Abstract
In recent years, considerable progress has been made in the simulation of ferritic steel welding processes. The successful validation of a single-pass autogenous TIG beam weld in SA508 Gr.3 Cl.1 steel has identified key simulation variables required for the accurate prediction of post-weld residual stress in ferritic weldments. The present work outlines a sensitivity study performed to examine the influence of austenite grain growth on predicted solid-state phase transformation kinetics and consequently, residual stress predictions.© 2014, Trans Tech Publications.
