| dc.description.abstract | The microstructure of the halo ring has been studied in quenched and partitioned (Q&P) steel resistance spot welds. The TEM and EBSD characterizations revealed the presence of an upper bainitic microstructure in the halo ring of the three-sheet stack-up welds. Stalking faults accompanied by nano-twins were identified surrounding the cementite. Diffusion of carbon towards the molten weld pool during solidification led to the formation of bainite at the fusion boundary, triggered the localized softening. | |
