Determination of the Mechanical Properties of Weld Materials based on Hardness Test
Stodola, Martin ; Španiel, Miroslav (referee) ; Dlouhý, Ivo (referee) ; Junek, Lubomír (advisor)
This dissertation thesis deals with determination of the mechanical properties of weld materials based on instrumented hardness test. This work was caused by the research project between IAM Brno Ltd and CEZ corp., when the task was to develop a methodology for evaluation of mechanical material properties using NDT methods. For these reasons the development of methodology is reflected especially for use in practice focusing to determining the mechanical properties of the heterogeneous weld joint on the assembled equipment. The mechanical material properties are determined by carrying out non-destructive tests of the instrumented Vickers hardness. The developed methodology for determining of basic mechanical properties is based on the principle of inverse FEM modeling of the instrumented hardness tests, when output of the testing is indentation curve and measured surface imprint after unloading. The basic material mechanical properties are achieved by comparing the outputs of the experimental instrumented hardness tests and the outputs of the modeled hardness test using FEM.

Fracture behaviour of heat affected zone near heterogeneous weld joint
Jelínek, Vladimír ; Válka, Libor (referee) ; Juliš, Martin (advisor)
The study deals with mechanical characteristic of heterogeneous weld joint. The low carbon steel 22K and austenitic steel have been used as a experimetnal materials. The low carbon steel has special properties in basic condition. The sample has been evaluated in basic condition and after annealation. There have been evaluated impact of annealation proces to structure and mechanical charakteristics in experimental part of study. The particularised analysis of microstructure has been done by pictorial analysis. Mechanical characteristics has been examinated in both conditions by 2 different methods – measurment of microhardness according to Vickers and test of fracture toughness on compact tension specimens.

Microstructural Stability of Weld Joints of Austenitic and Ferritic Steels
Šohaj, Pavel ; Stránský, Karel (referee) ; Sopoušek, Jiří (referee) ; Foret, Rudolf (advisor)
This doctoral thesis summarizes the theoretical and experimental knowledge in the field of dissimilar weld joint of progressive austenitic and ferritic creep-resistant steels. The following materials were selected for the presented study: 316Ti stabilized austenitic stainless steel, martensitic 9-12 %Cr steel P92 and ferritic ODS steel MA 956. The main attention was focused on the long-term microstructural stability during high temperature exposure of heterogeneous joints of the austenite / ferrite type. The literature analysis critically evaluates the current state of knowledge in the field of microstructural stability of advanced creep-resistant steels weld joints. The practical experimental part was carried out in two directions. On the basis of the chemical composition phase equilibrium calculations were performed for each steel using the ThermoCalc software, giving the basic concepts about the dependence of the phase composition and the chemical composition of phases on temperature. In parallel with these calculations the laboratory joints 316Ti/P92 made by resistance welding and the MA 956/316Ti electron beam weld joints were prepared, analyzed in as-weld state and further annealed at different temperature conditions. Exposed joints were subjected to microstructure and phase analysis. The stability of the weld interface was mainly observed. Attention was also focused on the agreement between the calculation and experimental data in comparison with data published in the literature. Based on the calculations, experimental results and published data the suitability of the combination of materials is discussed in the thesis and reasoning about the behavior of studied weld joints during long-term high temperature exposure was formulated. Based on the results the expected degree of microstructural stability of 316Ti/P92 joint was confirmed, while the joints MA 956/316Ti were found to be unstable.

Welding of heterogeneous joints by laser
Charvátová, Eliška ; Mrňa, Libor (referee) ; Kubíček, Jaroslav (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with welding of two dissimilar materials by laser. The samples were welded by direct beam guidance and wobbling, with and without using high alloy filler material and with the use of a diffusion barrier in the form of nickel. Welding was done with different shielding atmospheres. Nondestructive (VT, PT, UT-PA, RT) and destructive tests were performer (tensile test at room and elevated temperatures, microhrardness). Metalography was suplemented by EDX analysis of selected elements.

Microstructure stability of tungsten -ODS hetergeneous welds
Adam, Ondřej ; Sonnek, Pavel (referee) ; Jan, Vít (advisor)
The thesis is focused on microstructural stability of heterogeneous weld joint of ODS steel and tungsten. The theoretical part summarizes the basic information about the structure and properties of ODS steels and describes the methods of joining these steels with tungsten. In the experimental part, materials MA956 and WL10 were welded by using electron beam. The individual samples differ by preheating temperature or use filler material. After annealing at 800 °C/1h and 1000 °C/5h, a change of the weld metal microstructure was evaluated by using scanning electron microscope. The chemical composition was measured by energy dispersive spectroscopy. It has been found that during annealing, massive precipitation of particles occures in the whole volume of the weld metal. These particles were identified as Laves phase.

HSS welding process automation in nuclear power plant
Charvátová, Eliška ; Mrňa, Libor (referee) ; Kubíček, Jaroslav (advisor)
The bachelor thesis compares the manual and mechanized method of welding in the production of dissimilar weld joint. The samples were welded from austenitic and ferritic-perlitic parent materials with using the same type of high alloy filler material. Joint geometry is identical for both methods. Nondestructive and destructive controls were performed, the structural changes in the materials given by the different amounts of heat transfer into the weld joint were compared. Increasing the corrosion resistance of the inner pipe surface is ensured by nickel layer.
