Editorial
Dear readers,
Perhaps you are on vacation and want to regenerate your body and mind from the strenuous work, in which case you will probably not pick up this issue until later, because as Mark Twain so pointedly advised us: “Give every day the chance to become the most beautiful day of your life”. Be that as it may, in this issue you will find “just to be on the safe side” news on the subject of welded joints in large industrial plants. A Turkish author discusses the subject of friction welding of stainless steel, quenched and tempered steel and mild steel in various combinations used in the oil and gas industry. On the other hand, three authors from different institutes in India deal with TIG welded joints in stainless boiler steel for power plants and their susceptibility to pitting corrosion. In addition, the Siemens team from Germany reports on a special failure analysis in hot-going components, strain-assisted grain boundary oxidation, the SAGBO effect.
So wherever you're reading this – have a great August.
Liebe Leserinnen und Leser,
vielleicht haben Sie Urlaub und wollen Körper und Geist von der anstrengenden Arbeit regenerieren, dann werden Sie dieses Heft wohl erst später in die Hand nehmen, denn wie riet uns Mark Twain so treffend: „Gib jedem Tag die Chance, der schönste Deines Lebens zu werden“. Wie dem auch sei – in diesem Heft finden Sie „sicherheitshalber“ Neuigkeiten zum Thema Schweißverbindungen in großen Industrieanlagen. Ein türkischer Autor verhandelt das Thema Reibschweißen von rostfreiem Stahl, vergütetem Stahl und Baustahl in unterschiedlichen Kombinationen, die in der Öl- und Gasindustrie Verwendung finden. Drei Autoren aus verschiedenen Instituten Indiens beschäftigen sich hingegen mit WIG-Schweißverbindungen in rostfreiem Kesselstahl für Kraftwerke und deren Anfälligkeit für Lochkorrosion. Zusätzlich berichtet das Siemens-Team aus Deutschland von einer speziellen Schadensursache in heißgehenden Bauteilen, der spannungsunterstützten Korngrenzenoxidation, dem SAGBO-Effekt.
Wo auch immer Sie dies also lesen – einen schönen August wünscht Ihnen
