These row 1 and 2 hot-section turbine components are cast from Ni-and Co-base superalloy material, in an equiaxed, directionally solidified and single crystal morphologies. Repair of all these differently orientated grain structures on Ni-based blade materials will also be discussed. Some materials that have been weld and/or braze repaired include Co-based superalloys ECY 768, FSX-414, X-45 and Ni-base superalloys IN738, MarM247, GTD111, DS MarM247, DS GTD111, Rene N5 (but obviously are not limited to these superalloys).

Paper 2: Residual Stresses in Stainless Steel and Ferritic Steel Weld Repairs
By: P Hurrell, C Gill, D Hodgson, B Pellereau, S Garwood (Rolls-Royce) and M Smith, EDF-British Energy, UK Abstract: This presentation describes residual stress analyses of plate multi-pass groove welds, slot welds and ring welds. The specimens are comparable to shallow weld repairs performed on power plants, following removal of defects by machined grind-outs. Stainless steel (Type 304 and 316) plate welds were manufactured, as well as SA508 pressure vessel steel weld mock-ups of similar design. The plate welds were instrumented with thermocouples and subsequently sectioned to reveal fusion boundaries and HeatAffected Zone (HAZ) for the calibration of Finite Element (FE) model heat input. Residual stress measurements were also undertaken, to support the development and validation of FE models. Typically, it was necessary to use 3D FE modeling techniques to capture the features of stress fields developed in weld repairs. Cyclic strain hardening and tensile residual stress levels were determined to be greater in stainless steel weld repairs. Local stress concentrations are evident at the start and end of short repairs, especially in the case of steepsided slot welds. However, these stress concentrations are reduced if a tapered run-in and run-out are machined. Stress peaks at weld bead interruptions were also investigated and can be significant in the final capping layer, although these residual stresses are of short length-scale. Micro-structural Phase Transformation (PT) behaviour was investigated in SA508 steel weldments. Weld residual stress levels are reduced as a result of PT, but large tensile stresses can be induced in the HAZ and adjacent parent metal. Furnace post weld heat treatment of ferritic steel joints at 600°C produces effective stress relief and tempering. The structural integrity significance of these residual stress fields is also considered, in terms of crack driving forces applied to postulated weld defects.

Session 5 Repairs for Cyclical Service
Paper 1: Retrofitting Engineering for Fatigue Damaged Steel Structures
By: Dr. Chitoshi Miki, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Japan Abstract: In steel structures, many fatigue failures happened and repair and retrofitting works had been applied. The cases of fatigue damage and retrofitting works in steel structures are overviewed and technologies which were related to retrofitting works were summarized in this paper. As for bridge structures, many steel bridges have been constructed with the development of highway and railway networks. Welded girder bridges, which are sensitive to fatigue, have been positively adopted since 1960s. As a result, many fatigue failures have been observed in the U.S.A, Japan, and other countries since the 1960s . Because the causes of failures and repair measures for the cases are often referred from the repair cases reported in the past, it is very useful to gain knowledge from the past case studies and it is expected that such accumulated information will be of use in the maintenance technology. Therefore, repair cases for past fatigue failures must be collected so that anyone can refer to them. As a result of the activities of IIW-XIII-WG5, many repair cases for fatigue failures observed at various welded joints have been collected. The collected cases were arranged as a data-base which is available on the web. The damage cases were categorized as follows. •Welding defects were included at the time of fabrication. •An inappropriate structural detail of low fatigue strength had been adopted. •Stresses and deformations unforeseen in design occurred at joints of members. •The structure behaved in a manner not expected, such as vibration due to wind.
