Effect of Process Parameters on Welding Residual Stress of 316L Stainless Steel Pipe.

316L stainless steel pipes are widely used in the storage and transportation of low-temperature media due to their excellent low-temperature mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. However, due to their low thermal conductivity and large coefficient of linear expansion, they often lead to significant welding residual tensile stress and thermal cracks in the weld seam. This also poses many challenges for their secure and reliable applications.

A Study on the Ultrasonic Regulation of the Welding Performance and Residual Stress of 316L Stainless Steel Pipes.

Due to its extreme service conditions, low-temperature pressure piping often needs post-welding stress measurement and control. Aiming at the phenomenon of local stress concentration in welded 316L pipes, this study used ultrasound to regulate the stress in the welded area at different times during and after the multi-layer welding of the pipeline butt joint for different time lengths. Mechanical properties such as tensile strength and hardness were tested for each comparison group, and the microcrystalline phases of the weld and its surrounding microstructure were analyzed.

Ship power load forecasting based on PSO-SVM.

Compared with the land power grid, power capacity of ship power system is small, its power load has randomness. Ship power load forecasting is of great significance for the stability and safety of ship power system. Support vector machine (SVM) load forecasting algorithm is a common method of ship power load forecasting.

Effect of Different Ultrasonic Power on the Properties of RHA Steel Welded Joints.

Based on the changes of microhardness, tensile strength, and impact resistance caused by the difference of macroscopic morphology and microstructure of welded joints, this paper studied the effect of different ultrasonic power on the properties of welded joints during the welding of homogeneous armor steel. It is experimentally found that the macroscopic morphology of those joints is very different. Compared with conventional welding, ultrasonic welding can increase the weld depth and the width of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) on either side of the weld.
