Initiation Behavior of Microscopic Short Cracks in Weld Toe of Structural Steel Q345B

Aiming at the base metal (BM) zone, heat affected zone (HAZ) and fusion zone (FZ) of the weld, the tip plastic zone and initiation behavior of microscopic short cracks (MSCs) in the toe of cross-welded joints are studied. Based on the theory of crack tip plastic zone and the fatigue index parameter...
