High-Strength Low-Alloy (HSLA) steel exhibits excellent tensile strength and ductility, and it also possesses good welding performance due to its low carbon equivalent. However, welding defects always inevitably appear during the fusion weldingof HSLA steel. In this paper, the previous investigations on the microstructure of the joined HSLA steel by different fusion welding processes arereviewed, and the mechanical properties of the fabricated joint are analyzed. Also, the practicability of different fusion welding processes on HSLA steel has been systematically analyzed. Finally, the prospect

It is worth noting that the causes of element segregation and slag inclusion are related to high welding-brazing temperature, impurity of raw materials, inadequate cleaning of materials before welding-brazing and volatilization of impurity metals in the chamber of the vacuum furnac

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a relatively new welding process compared to electron beam or arc welding. Unlike most other welding processes there is no liquid state for the weld pool. For this reason the potential defect types present within the weld are quite different from conventional welding defects such as voids or lack of fusion. These can still be present, but defects such as slag or hot tearing due weld pool shrinkage cannot. Other defects more akin to those associated with resistance welding (joint line remnants) are more likely and can be more serious. TWI has run and taken part in
