The strain state of mechanically heterogeneous welded joint with the real square weld subjected to tension at plane deformation

Abstract

Dependencies for the calculation of strain intensity in the most heavily loaded zones of welded joint with the real mild and hard weld are obtained in this paper. The optimum relative height of mild weld reinforcement is obtained from equality of strain intensities in central crosssection and stress concentration zone (initial point of reinforcement). The hard weld reinforcement increase strain intensity in the most heavily loaded zones of welded joint.
