EFFECT OF WELDING SEQUENCE AND THE TRANSVERSE GEOMETRY OF THE WELD OVERLAY ON THE DISTRIBUTION OF RESIDUAL STRESS IN THE WELD OVERLAY REPAIR OF T23 TUBES

Effect of Welding Sequence and the Transverse Geometry of the Weld Overlay on the Distribution of Residual Stress in the Weld Overlay Repair of T23 Tubes

Water-wall tubes are important components in power plants and are used to absorb the heat from the boilers, and they often fail prematurely due to corrosion, erosion, and fatigue during service.To repair the defects, weld overlay repair is often adopted by forming a compressive stress area around the susceptible area to prevent the cracks from prop

Incinerate, recycle, or wash and reuse

What is the best way to minimize the environmental impact of using a product such as Colanders paper? Three debating teams were formed within a university class.One team advocated increased recycling of paper.Another team pointed to evidence showing reduced environmental impact and lower net CO2 emissions if the paper is incinerated rather than rec
