ASSESSING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF ULTRASONIC IMPACT TREATMENT ON RESIDUAL STRESS PROFILES IN DISSIMILAR WELDED JOINTS
Residual stresses (RS) induced during welding processes are a critical concern in materials engineering, as they can significantly impair the mechanical performance of components by reducing fatigue strength and tensile load capacity. This challenge is especially pronounced in dissimilar metal welds (DMWs), where variations in thermal expansion properties between the joine…
