Title: Evaluation of LBZ susceptibility of offshore structural steels by CTOD and instrumented pre-crack Charpy impact test

Conference ·
OSTI ID:433625

Toughness of simulated HAZ was evaluated by means of CTOD and instrumented pre-crack Charpy tests. While the CTOD transition temperature represents brittle fracture initiation toughness, pre-crack Charpy transition temperature is strongly influenced by brittle fracture arrest toughness. The both transition temperatures are controlled by different microstructural parameters.
