Description: When welding stainless steels, metallurgical reactions take place which greatly influence corrosion resistance and mechanical properties. The book deals with this subject by discussing constitution diagrams, solidification and segregation phenomenas, phase transformations, precipitations of carbides and intermetallic phases, and cracking problems. In addition, directions for welding techniques are given to avoid failures in practical welding operations.
