Abstract: The fatigue strength of two types of FRP/metal adhesive joints at low temperature, a double lap joint and an embedded joint, was evaluated analytically and experimentally. First, the stress ...

Abstract: Direct measurements and computed distributions of through-thickness residual stress in a pipe butt-welded joint and a pipe socket-welded joint are compared. The analytical evaluation methods used ...

Abstract: The effects of residual stress on fatigue strength at a weld toe in a multi-pass fillet weld joint were evaluated. The residual stresses in the weld joints were varied by controlling the ...

Abstract: Residual stress in a large-diameter multi-pass butt-welded pipe joint was calculated for various welding pass sequences by thermal elastic-plastic analysis using the finite element method. The ...
