Welds in safety critical applications are subject to structural integrity assessments where residual stress plays a key part. Because residual stress predictions are unreliable,...

Dissimilar metal weld (DMW) joints are widely used in nuclear power plants to connect ferritic steel components with austenitic steel piping systems. AREVA has designed a new...
