Abstract
The work is a study of the impact of pulsed-arc welding process on structure formation and properties of the metal of the weld and HAZ, compared to welding by a stationary arc. In the case of high-strength steel S450M, it is shown that pulsed-arc welding allows effective regulation of structure formation. Owing to a change of TWC, the weld and HAZ form a mixed structure that allows achieving high values of strength and brittle fracture resistance. 14 Ref., 1 Table, 6 Figures.
Keywords: pulsed-arc welding, high-strength steel, weld and HAZ metal, thermodeformational cycle, structure, welded joint properties
