Residual stress distributions due to plating and polishing were determined for nickel-phosphorus plated aluminum alloy disks. Knowledge of these stresses provides insight into the material deformation and removal processes, information as to the effects of processing conditions on residual stress magnitude and can also serve as a basis for development of models of material deformation and removal in polishing. Measured disk shape data was fitted to an analytical solution for plate displacement due to bending moments, and residual stresses were calculated. Plating and polishing residual stresses were separated. Polishing residual stress is compressive indicating differential plastic deformation between the surface and interior regions of the workpiece. Residual stresses produced in polishing operations in which process motions were constrained so that polishing was unidirectional were measured. The results show large differences between amounts of deformation in the polishing direction and the direction perpendicular to it.

A 3D thermo-mechanical coupled model of hot leveling and cooling process of steel plate with nine rolls has been conducted with the aid of commercial non-linear FEM software. The effects of four hot leveling deformation rates on the transversal and longitudinal residual stresses of steel plate in the condition of same initial temperature distribution pattern has been analyzed. Different plastic deformation rates are obtained through the reduction change of No.2 leveler. The transversal and longitudinal residual stress distributions at different parts of steel plate are also studied. The results show that the transversal and longitudinal residual stresses increase with plastic deformation rates through hot leveling and cooling. The residual stress distribution patterns at various positions of the steel plate in the conditions of different plastic deformation rates can be confirmed quantitatively, which can provide guidance to practical determination of hot leveling plastic deformation rates.

Mechanical dents often occur in transmission pipelines, and are recognized as one of major threats to pipeline integrity because of the potential fatigue failure due to cyclic pressures. With matured in-line-inspection (ILI) technology, mechanical dents can be identified from the ILI runs. Based on ILI measured dent profiles, finite element analysis (FEA) is commonly used to simulate stresses and strains in a dent, and to predict fatigue life of the dented pipeline. However, the dent profile defined by ILI data is a purely geometric shape without residual stresses nor plastic deformation history, and is different from its actual dent that contains residual stresses/strains due to dent creation and re-rounding. As a result, the FEA results of an ILI dent may not represent those of the actual dent, and may lead to inaccurate or incorrect results. To investigate the effect of residual stress or plastic deformation history on mechanics responses and fatigue life of an actual dent, three dent models are considered in this paper: (a) a true dent with residual stresses and dent formation history, (b) a purely geometric dent having the true dent profile with all stress/strain history removed from it, and (c) a purely geometric dent having an ILI defined dent profile with all stress/strain history removed from it. Using a three-dimensional FEA model, those three dents are simulated in the elastic-plastic conditions. The FEA results showed that the two geometric dents determine significantly different stresses and strains in comparison to those in the true dent, and overpredict the fatigue life or burst pressure of the true dent. On this basis, suggestions are made on how to use the ILI data to predict the dent fatigue life.

Welding Procedure

In this paper, some of the important controlling parameters governing weld residual stress distributions are presented for girth welds in pipe and vessel components, based on a large number of residual stress solutions available to date. The focus is placed upon the understanding of some of the overall characteristics in through-wall residual stress distributions and their generalization for vessel and pipe girth welds. In doing so, a unified framework for prescribing residual stress distributions is outlined for fitness-for-service assessment of vessel and pipe girth welds. The effects of various joint geometry and welding procedure parameters on through thickness residual stress distributions are also demonstrated in the order of their relative importance.

Fracture Performance

Tensile residual stresses, such as those generated by welding, act as crack opening stresses and can have a negative effect on the fatigue and fracture performance of a component. In this work the effect of representative residual stress distributions on the fracture behaviour of a ferritic steel has been examined using finite element analysis. A Gurson-type void growth model is used to model the effect of ductile tearing ahead of a crack. For the cases examined it is seen that a tensile residual stress field may lead to a reduction in the toughness of the material (as represented by the J-resistance curve). The observed difference in toughness can be linked to the different constraint levels in the specimens due to the introduction of the residual stress field and can be rationalised through the use of a two parameter, J–Q approach.

Effects of pipe dimensions and outer surface-buttering weld conditions on residual stress distributions were evaluated using the finite element method. Residual stresses were analyzed for 508–mm-diameter (500A) pipe 38.1 mm thick, 508–mm-diameter (500A) pipe 15.1 mm thick, and 267–mm-diameter (250A) pipe 15.1 mm thick. After the residual stresses at pipe butt joints were analyzed, residual stresses at these joints subjected to the outer surface-buttering welds were analyzed. Residual stresses were determined for various weld widths, thicknesses, and heat inputs. These analyses indicate that tensile axial stress occurred at inner surface of the pipe butt joint and that it decreased with increasing the outer surface buttering-weld width or heat input. They also indicate that compressive hoop stress occurred at inner surface of the joint and that outer surface-buttering weld increased it. The outer surface-buttering weld conditions that generate compressive residual stress at the inner surface of the pipe butt joints were determined.

Premature Failure

Tensile welding residual stresses can, in combination with operating stresses, lead to premature failure of components by fatigue and/or fracture. It is therefore important that welding residual stresses are accounted for in design and assessment of engineering components and structures. In this work residual stress distributions, obtained from measurements on a number of ferritic steel T-plate weldments using the neutron diffraction technique and the deep-hole drilling method, are presented. It has been found that the residual stress distributions for three different plate sizes are of similar shape when distances are normalized by plate thickness. It has also been found that the conservatisms in residual stress profiles recommended in current fracture mechanics-based safety assessment procedures can be significant—of yield strength magnitude in certain cases. Based on the data presented here a new, less-conservative transverse residual stress upper bound distribution is proposed for the T-plate weldment geometry. The extent of the plastic zone developed during the welding process has also been estimated by use of Vickers hardness and neutron diffraction measurements. It has been found that the measured plastic zone sizes are considerably smaller than those predicted by existing methods. The implications of the use of the plastic zone size as an indicator of the residual stress distributions are discussed.

Residual Internal Stress

Summary Due to the moisture and temperature gradients developed during hot pressing of medium density fibre-board (MDF), residual stresses occur within the board as it equilibrates to room conditions. It would be extremely useful to measure these residual stresses and to determine their effects on board properties such as moduli of elasticity and rupture in bending, internal bond strength and dimensional stability. In this article two methods, namely dissection and hole drilling, have been adapted to measure residual internal stress distributions in six different samples of industry produced MDF. The dissection method involves cutting several pieces of MDF perpendicular to the thickness direction at different depths. The residual stresses released by the dissection can be determined by measuring the curvatures of cut pieces and knowing their elastic moduli. The hole drilling method, on the other hand, involves mounting three strain gauges on the surface of a piece of MDF and drilling a hole to release residual stresses in close proximity. The released stresses are manifested as strains in the forms of which can be measured in three directions on the surface of the board. A theoretical model for predicting residual stresses involving various parameters has been developed and an excellent agreement with the experimental results from both the dissection and hole drilling methods has been achieved. Linear moisture expansion coefficient appears to have the greatest influence on residual stress. When compared against each other, the residual stresses measured by the hole drilling method show some shortcomings towards the centre of the board. While all six of the MDF boards exhibited similar trends in their residual stress distributions, significant differences were identified in the magnitudes of residual stress measured. Finally, some preliminary results linking the residual stress with the thickness swell of the samples and their surface densities have been presented.

The effects of electrolytic grinding on surface conditions and residual stress characteristics has been experimentally investigated. Surface finish, uniformity of material removal, and corrosion resistance are found to be dependent on mechanical removal rate as determined by wheel downfeed as well as electrolyte flow rate. Downfeeds of approximately 0.002 in. in the process do not produce measurable residual stresses and therefore it was further established that electrolytic grinding with moderate downfeeds can be used in place of swab etching techniques for evaluation of residual stress distributions. The maximum residual surface stresses were found to be not more than 22,000 psi, well below the yield strength of the material and were induced during the most severe grinding conditions.
