TIG welding of EN 1.3964 low-magnetic austenitic stainless steel: effects of welding parameters on microstructure, mechanical behavior, and ferrite stability
EN 1.3964 nitrogen-alloyed austenitic stainless steel is widely employed in naval and offshore structures because of its high strength, corrosion resistance, and low magnetic response. This study investigates the influence of TIG welding current and argon shielding-gas flow rate on the microstructural evolution, ferrit...
