Rehabilitation of welded structures has gained increasing attention lately. This paper aims at investigating the efficiency of Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG)-remelting and TIG-remelting followed by High Frequency Mechanical Impact treatment (TIG-HFMI) in fatigue life extension. Fatigue tests were carried out on as-welded and cracked specimens after treatment. The lives of the treated specimens increased remarkably by the two methods (TIG and TIG-HFMI). Many of the treated specimens ran-out after 10 million cycles of loading and failed at the clamping location when tested at a higher stress range. The improvement in compressive residual stresses, hardness values and weld toe radii were the reasons behind the life extension. These factors were used...
