An engineering methodology to assess effects of weld strength mismatch on cleavage fracture toughness using the Weibull stress approach

This work describes the development of an engineering approach based upon a toughness scaling methodology incorporating the effects of weld strength mismatch on crack-tip driving forces. The approach adopts a nondimensional Weibull stress, , as a the near-tip driving force to correlate cleavage frac...
