Various international organizations and governments of many countries are making efforts to prevent environmental pollution, with the IMO (International Maritime Organization) reinforcing related regulations. With these regulations, equipment related to LNG-fueled ships, which have the greatest carbon dioxide reduction effect among eco-friendly ships, are expected to increase. Although the IGC code designates the materials that can be used for LNG containers, such as 304L stainless steel and 9% nickel steel, these materials have a tendency to deteriorate the tissue around the heat-affected zone due to excessive heat input. In this study, we analyzed the effect of brittle fracture in the weld zone and heat-affected zone after fiber laser welding and found that welding quality improved with control of the heat input. SVM discriminant analysis was applied to classify the groups in which brittle fracture and ductile fracture occurred. The shape of the penetration section, hardness in the welding zone and heat-affected zone, and fracture surface were selected as factors for discrimination; these values were determined under various welding conditions. With these data, we derived a regression model and multi-objective optimization algorithm to predict mechanical properties after welding, as well as the conditions necessary to prevent brittle fracture. Finally, the prediction models were verified, as the results of welding under the derived conditions were classified as ductile fracture group. |
