In this paper fatigue properties of three groups of unequal thickness unmarked overlap laser welding of the external wallboard connected of type A and B vehicle were studied. In addition, a group of overlap penetration welded structures of 1.5mm-301L-HT+0.8mm-301L-DLT is designed to study the impact of penetration rate to the mechanical properties. The influence of the weld geometry and plate combination on fatigue fracture behavior and fatigue property is studied based on the combination of fatigue test and simulation stress analysis. Fatigue studies have shown that in spite of the thickness of the two lap unequal thickness welded plate is disparities -- unmarked non-penetration welding outer plate is thicker but it appears fatigue fracture on the outer plate. The safety fatigue limit of three different non-penetration welded structures of plate combinations and weld structures is close which further proofs that the stress state and microstructure of non-penetration outer plate is not conducive to fatigue fracture. It is consistent with the results of the finite element simulation. The fatigue limit of lap welded structure increase with the increase of plate thickness.
