| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Laser-arc hybrid welding technology, which has the advantages of laser and normal arc welding, provides high-quality welds and is expected to improve productivity and accuracy. A strong advantage of laser-arc hybrid welding is its low heat input compared with conventional arc welding. Large reductions in residual welding deformation are expected when applying laser-arc hybrid welding. Such improvements will increase the productivity of hull construction and permit structural styles that reduce the net weight of a hull. Meanwhile, the large-scale constraint device of members must be equipped in the laser-arc hybrid welding systems to fabricate high quality welded joints.
New tack welding procedure, which laser irradiation without filler wire was applied to melt the region of connection to fix between the stiffener and base plate, is proposed and verified by macroscopic observation of weld bead appearance and cross section, measurement of angular distortion and fatigue tests.
