Understanding Alloy Properties for Better Welds

I’ve been diving deep into the different properties of various alloys and how they respond to welding processes. Lately, I’ve found that understanding the grain structure can really influence the strength of my welds, especially when working with high-strength steel. Anyone else explore how specific material science principles can improve your technique in practical applications?
