Abstract The material constraint is an important factor affecting the fracture behavior of dissimilar metal welded joint (DMWJ). For accurately design, manufacture and structure integrity assessment, is necessary to clarify the influence of material constraint on the DMWJ. However, there is still a lack of a systematic research on the influence of material constraint on the fracture behavior of the DMWJ in the current nuclear power plants, and how to improve the fracture resistance of the DMWJ by the optimal design of the material constraint should be considered. In this work, a 52M nickel-based alloy DMWJ in nuclear power plants was selected, the initial crack which located in the heat affected zone (HAZ) was manufactured, and the fracture behaviors of the DMWJ under different material constraints of HAZ, fusion zone (FZ) and near interface zone (NIZ) were studied. In addition, the optimal design of the material constraint was investigated. The results show that for the HAZ crack, the J-resistance curves increase monotonously with increasing the strength of HAZ where the crack is located in. And the J-resistance curves increase firstly, then decrease and remain steady with increasing the strength of FZ and NIZ where the crack is nearby. The optimized DMWJs have higher J-resistance curves, and when Ms (HAZ): Ms (FZ):Ms (NIZ)=2:1.4:0.84, the optimized DMWJ has the highest J-resistance curve which is several times of the current J-resistance curve.
