Selective Laser Melting (SLM) presents a modern manufacturing process with an innovative technology which allows the production of full-density objects or fine-structured parts with complex geometry and inner structures. Stability and certification of the properties of SLM parts are important tasks for all producers and end-users. One of the drawbacks of this technology is high residual stress in as-made SLM objects. In this study X-ray diffraction technique was used for investigating the residual stress induced into SLM Ti6Al4V alloy samples. Principal stresses were estimated for the cut rectangular specimen. Two types of the cantilevers were produced and numerical simulation of the stress was performed. The bending of cut cantilevers was measured before and after heat treatment. Next series of the samples had rectangular shapes and different thicknesses from 1 to 46 layers. All as-manufactured specimens attached to the substrate showed the presence of tensile residual stresses near the top surface. Residual stress along the laser scanning direction had magnitudes twice that of the stress in the perpendicular direction. Conclusions regarding directions and values of stresses in SLM objects from Ti6Al4V powder are given.

It was Niihara et al. who first discovered that the fracture strength of Al2O3 can be increased by incorporating as little as 5 vol.% of nano-size SiC particles (>1000 MPa), and that the strength would be improved further by a simple annealing procedure (>1500 MPa). This discovery has stimulated intense interest on Al2O3/SiC nanocomposites. Recent indentation studies by Fang et al. have shown that residual stress relief was more difficult in the nanocomposite than in pure Al2O3. In the present work, TEM was employed to investigate the microscopic mechanism(s) for the difference in the residual stress recovery in these two materials.Bulk samples of hot-pressed single phase Al2O3, and Al2O3 containing 5 vol.% 0.15 μm SiC particles were simultaneously polished with 15 μm diamond compound. Each sample was cut into two pieces, one of which was subsequently annealed at 1300° for 2 hours in flowing argon. Disks of 3 mm in diameter were cut from bulk samples.

The effects of heat treatment on distortion, residual stress, and retained austenite were compared for case-carburized 4320 steel, in both the austempered and quench-and-tempered condition. Navy C-ring samples were used to quantify both size and shape distortions, as well as residual stress. The austempering heat treatment produced less distortion and a higher surface residual stress. Both hoop and axial stresses were measured; the difference between them was less than seven percent in all cases. Depth profiles were obtained for residual stress and retained austenite from representative C-ring samples for the austempered and quench-and-tempered heat treatment conditions. Austempering maintained a compressive residual stress to greater depths than quench-and-tempering. Quench-and-tempering also resulted in lower retained austenite amounts immediately beneath the surface. However, for both heat treatments, the retained austenite content was approximately one percent at depths greater than 0.5 mm.

Nano-ceramic materials had high hardness and wear resistance. Combined with current technology and cost saving, nanostructured coatings technology were carried out, using HVOF ( high velocity oxygen fuel) or plasma spraying technique can obtain high quality ceramic coating on metal substrate. Ceramic coatings produced cracks in the grinding due to grinding surface residual stress. the coatings grinding surface residual stress of engineering ceramics have been researched, grinding surface residual stress in the nanostructured ceramic coatings are being researched. the researches in this field include grinding process modeling, abrasives and grinding parameters, grinding process monitoring and control and realization of the software, the grinding mechanism and grinding damage on the surface, grinding force prediction, on-line detection, grinding on nanocoating material is a multivariable complex process.

Hard turning, i.e., turning hardened steels, may produce the unique “hook” shaped residual stress (RS) profile characterized by surface compressive RS and subsurface maximum compressive RS. However, the formation mechanism of the unique RS profile is not yet known. In this study, a novel hybrid finite element modeling approach based on thermal-mechanical coupling and internal state variable plasticity model has been developed to predict the unique RS profile patterns by hard turning AISI 52100 steel (62 HRc). The most important controlling factor for the unique characteristics of residual stress profiles has been identified. The transition of maximum residual stress at the surface to the subsurface has been recovered by controlling the plowed depth. The predicted characteristics of residual stress profiles favorably agree with the measured ones. In addition, friction coefficient only affects the magnitude of surface residual stress but not the basic shape of residual stress profiles.
