Effect of water depth on the underwater wet welding of ferritic steels using austenitic Ni-based alloy electrodes.

Underwater welding using shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) on US naval Vessels is very attractive because of the ability to effect repairs without costly dry dock expenses. In the past the primary problems with underwater wet weldments on steels utilizing SMAW with ferritic electrodes, were underbea...
