A method combining moire´ interferometry, Twyman–Green interferometry, and blind hole drilling method is proposed for simple and accurate determination of residual stress. The relationship between the three-dimensional surface displacements produced by introducing a blind hole and the corresponding residual stress is established by employing the Fourier expansion solution containing a set of undetermined coefficients. The coefficients are calibrated by 3D finite element method. The surface in-plane displacements Ux,Uy, and the out-of-plane displacement Uz produced by the relaxation of residual stress are measured by moire´ interferometry and Twyman–Green interferometry, respectively, after the hole-drilling procedure. The complete three-dimensional displacement data at any single point around the hole can be used for residual stress determination. The accuracy of the method is analyzed and the experimental procedure is described to determine the sign of residual stresses. As an implementation of the method, a shot peening residual stress problem is studied. [S0094-4289(00)00802-1]

Residual stress is one of the important factors in thermally sprayed deposits which affects both processing and performances. In the present study, the hole-drilling method and moire interferometry were used to determine the residual stress of thermally sprayed coatings to overcome certain limitations of the strain rosette version of hole drilling. The methodology was established based on the elastic theory and finite element method. The residual displacement was measured by moire interferometry and the residual stress of the thermally sprayed coating was calculated. The results have demonstrated that moire interferometry for surface displacement caused by hole-drilling is high sensitive, reliable and stable.

A new method combining Moire´ interferometry and the incremental hole-drilling method is developed to determine both uniform and nonuniform residual stress distribution in depth. The study is reported in two parts. In this first part, the theoretical development of the moire´ interferometry hole-drilling method is presented. The relationship between the in-plane surface displacements produced by introducing a blind hole and the corresponding residual stresses is established by employing the existing theoretical solution containing a set of undetermined coefficients. The coefficients are calibrated by the three-dimensional finite element method and they are processed nondimensionally for general use. The whole field in-plane surface displacements data Ux and Uy produced by the relaxation of residual stresses are obtained from moire´ interferometry after each increment of hole drilling. The high signal-to-noise ratio provided by moire´ interferometry allows accurate determination of fringe orders near the hole boundary which is essential for enhancing fidelity of residual stress determination. The experimental procedure to determine the signs of residual stresses is described and the accuracy of the method is also discussed.

An experiment is devised to implement the combined method of moire´ interferometry and incremental hole drilling which was proposed in the companion paper. A unique experimental apparatus is designed to combine an optical set up for moire´ interferometry with an incremental hole-drilling device. The apparatus maintains a constant relative position of a drilling device to the specimen while alternating moire´ interferometry measurements with incremental hole drilling. The drill-bit can reenter the hole for each incremental step. The incremental hole-drilling device produces a precise control of incremental hole depth with an accuracy of 0.1 μm. The method is utilized to measure the residual stresses of two shot-peened materials: AS10U3NG aluminum alloy and the ten percent SiCp reinforced aluminum composite-F3K10S Duralcan with a T6 heat treatment. Moire´ fringe patterns with excellent contrast and high signal-to-noise ratio are obtained, which allows the extraction displacement data at the points very close to a hole boundary. In the experiment, a total number of ten steps of incremental hole drilling with an identical increment of 0.1 mm are performed. The fringe patterns of Ux and Uy displacement fields are recorded after each increment and the displacement data at the points of r = 1.2r0 are extracted consequently. They are used to determine the nonuniform residual stress distributions of surface and subsurface layers of shot-peened materials. The results indicate that the medium level of approximately equibiaxial compressive residual stresses exist within a 0.3 mm layer.
