Failure mechanisms and fatigue strength reduction factor of a Cr-Ni-Mo-V steel welded joint up to ultra-long life regime

It is known that welded joint is much “weaker” than base metal due to discontinuities of geometry, materials and residual stresses. It seems current international design rules do not adopt a uniform approach to weld efficiency, which is often defined as the ratio of the strength of a welded joint to...
