Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Laser-MAG hybrid welding has a wide range of application prospects for pipeline steel welding, because it combines the advantages of arc welding and laser welding. However, the brittle microstructure of bainite or martensite in hybrid welding results in low impact toughness, and thus it cannot be used in pipeline laying. Hence, in this study, we induced acicular ferrite (AF) into laser-MAG hybrid welds, because of its good impact toughness. We prepared X100 steel welds with different Ti content using laser-MAG hybrid welding. Then, the microstructure evolution, impact toughness and fracture mechanism of the welds with different Ti content were investigated. The results illustrated that with increasing Ti content, the outer layer inclusion composition evolved from mostly Al 2 O 3 to Ti 2 O 3 and finally to TiC. Thus, Ti 2 O 3 induced AF nucleation by forming an Mn-depleted zone, which caused the volume fraction of AF to initially increase and then decrease. The impact toughness also changed accordingly (16.3 → 21.9→8.7J) and the cracks nucleated and propagated in granular bainite during impact fracture. When they encountered AF, the cracks deflected and even stopped propagating. Therefore, by controlling the Ti content in the laser-MAG hybrid weld, the impact energy at −40 °C was higher than in the base metal. In addition, the higher quantity of AF with a high effective grain boundary density (0.57/μm) and low kernel average misorientation value could effectively hinder crack propagation and consequently improve impact toughness.
