For the fatigue design of welded structures under constant amplitude loading, often the nominal stress approach based on design S-N curves is used. The design S-N curves, which can be found in commonly used guidelines, cover arc welds as well as beam welds. However, the experimental data basis for the guideline consists mainly of arc-welded joints. Beam-welded components on the other hand show different...
Beam welding processes, i.e., laser beam welding and electron beam welding, are increasingly used to join structural steels. Welds which originate from these joining processes are known for having high weld hardness, and, in many cases, a martensitic or martensitic-bainitic microstructure in the weld seam. As these characteristics might affect the toughness behavior of those joints compared to arc...
