Conclusions

The fatigue and corrosion-fatigue resistance of low-alloy steels increases as degree of plastic prestraining increases to 29%. The resistance of the 08kp steel prestrained and hardened by surface plastic deformation and its welded joints to fatigue and corrosion-fatigue fracture is higher than for the 08GSYuT alloyed steel. The procedures of pneumatic shot blasting and shot blasting prove to be efficient methods for increasing the cyclic and low-cycle durability of welded joints both in air and corrosive media. The corrosive medium considerably decreases the low-cycle durability of welded joints of sheet steels. The effect of the medium is more pronounced for alloyed steels and becomes weaker as the amplitude of strains increases.
