Abstract
This paper investigates and determines residual stress and deformation of butt welded joint between two plates of low carbon steel and stainless steel. Based on the theoretical basis of the virtual force method [1-3], this study has constructed the formulas to calculate the residual stress and deformation in fusion welding of two dissimilar materials for butt joint and single-pass weld. The residual stresses and deformations in the butt-welded joint of two plates of 5 mm thickness, beveled edge, single-pass weld between low carbon steel and stainless steel are determined and compared to show the difference of residual stress and deformation in each plate. These results are also compared with the butt welded joint of two low carbon steel plates.
