Abstract.
Little is known about the e ect of stress on the development of microstructure in steel welds. This paper contains an assessment of published data together with a description of the theory that is available for dealing with stress{a ected transformations in steels. Attention is focused on those transformations which have the greatest potential for interaction with an externally applied stress. These include the solid{state transformation products of austenite, such as Widmanstatten ferrite, acicular ferrite, bainite and martensite.
