dc.description.abstract <p>The initiation and growth of intergranular stress-corrosion cracking (IGSCC) in the heat-affected zone of welds in stainless steel reactor piping has been a subject of concern to electric utilities for over ten years. This type of crack can be detected with ultrasonic shear waves during normal maintenance periods with a reliability of up to 80% [1]. Often, when crack indications have been found, the utility has been allowed to apply a weld metal overlay as a temporary repair measure. However, the complex, elastically anisotropic microstructure of the overlay considerably reduces the reliability of subsequent ultrasonic inspections. This paper addresses the problems arising because of the overlay.</p>
