Abstract
The paper presents an advanced simulation approach developed for considering the local microstructure properties variation due to multiple heat treatment. The model describes the resulting microstructure as a function of the peak temperature, austenisation time, cooling time and takes into account the microstructure formed after each thermal cycle. The model is calibrated with experimental material data obtained by repeated thermal loads. It is qualified to calculate the hardness and local microstructure properties in the HAZ of multi-pass welds. Thermo-mechanical simulation of the residual welding stresses and distortions in multi-pass welded joint is performed and validated by measurements.
