Why welding thick carbon steel material has tendency to crack?
Depends on a lot of variables, such as welding process, filler metal, type of joint, etc. One possibility is that a proper pre-heat is not maintained. If welding two thick pieces of plate, by the time the final passes are welded, the bottom layers may cool too quickly, or the beads may not be fusing together. Cooling too quickly can cause the layers to separate. Or it may be possible that the continuous welding with a certain process may overheat the metal. Also, some electrodes contain hydrogen that can cause embrittlement and cracking in the parent metal or HAZ. This list is not exhaustive, consult a welding text for more potential causes.
What is fracture mechanics?
Fracture mechanics is the study of how cracks form and propogate through variuos materials. Often times during design an engineer will assume a crack in the material to or use x-ray to determine the size of cracks in the material. Fracture mechanics approaches require that an initial crack size be known or assumed. For components with imperfections or defects (such as welding porosities, inclusions and casting defects, etc.) an initial crack size may be known.
What welding defect is considered the most severe?
1. Surface Cracks 2. Under bead / HAZ crack 3. Root Crack 4. Inclusion 5. Concave profile 6. Weld undersize.
What is easier to weld carbon steel or cast iron?
any steel or alloy of iron and carbon having a carbon percentage of above 0.3% is difficult to weld. carbon steel can have maximum carbon percentage of about 2% and cast iron with carbon percentage between 2% to 4%. the welding of any iron alloy with carbon percentage above 0.3% becomes difficult because of the formation of the martensite in the welding areas, heat affected zone etc., the fusion welding process which is usually employed to weld carbon steel and cast iron takes the metal or alloy to their respective melting point (in this case about 1650 C) which is above the austenizing temperature of most steel and cast iron. when the weld is finished it undergoes a process similar to hardening. the nearby non heated parts of the welded material acts as the cold bath resulting in the hardening process which involves sudden cooling for the formation of martensite which is very brittle, any pressure applied will crack the weld immediately. hence before welding the nearby parts of the material to be welded is preheated so that they wont act as any cold bath. but any way cast irons are very difficult to weld than the steels. this is because of the fact that the martensite formed is as a result of trapped carbon atoms in the iron crystal making a distorted body centered tetragonal crystal structure(martensite). higher the percentage of carbon the martensite formation is even better. hence cast irons are especially difficult to weld. design engineers never suggest a welding process for cast iron. cast irons are welded only when there is no other choice but to weld it.
Why carbon is better then any other for steel?
It is required to make steel the more carbon the steel contains the harder and stronger it will get, if you have to much carbon the steel will be brittle and crack easy. carbon is a good element to bond with becuase it has four bonds
What is the word for the tendency to crack or break?
The word is "brittleness."
How easily does carbon fiber crack?
Carbon fiber is known for its high strength and stiffness, making it resistant to cracking. However, it can still crack under extreme stress or impact. Overall, carbon fiber is less prone to cracking compared to other materials like metal or plastic.
What do you need to weld a rusty crack?
a welding machine, a grinder, some skill

Can a 22inch rim be fixed with a 12inch crack on the inside?
no, DOT do not allow welding to be done to repair a wheel
What are welding defects?
1. crack 2. spatter 3.distortion 4. haz 5 blow holes
How do you manually make crack in arc welding?
due improper storage of electrode and pre heat maintening temperature
What is the physical property denoting a minerals tendency to crack along parallel planar surfaces?
cleavage. cleavage.
What makes knuckles crack?
what makes knuckles crack is carbon dioxide bubbles in your knuckles along with cartilage.

Can you boil the water for aquarium?
No, because if you boil a water and put it in the aquarium the tendency is the aquarium will crack.;) SO EASY!
