The welding residual stress has different effects on the mechanical properties of aluminum alloy welded joints, such as size stability, fatigue strength and stress corrosion cracking. Therefore, it is very important to evaluate the welding residual stress accurately. In this paper, the residual stress of A7N01 aluminum alloy welded joints was measured by X-ray diffraction. In contrast to the traditional method, the cos[Formula: see text] method was used in this paper, the results were compared with those obtained by the conventional [Formula: see text] method. In addition, the influence of oscillation unit on the test results of the cos[Formula: see text] method was studied.

Using the Renka Cline algorithm provided by OriginPro8.6 to fit the longitudinal residual stress through parts of the measurement value on the A7N01-T5 aluminum alloy butt welded joints compared with the whole measurement value. The result shows that the fitting value approximates the measurement value. The fitting value is reliable. So, Renka Cline algorithm is a reliable method to analyze the longitudinal residual stress on a plate region.

Welding residual stress has important influence on the performance of engineering components. In this paper, the residual stress and FWHM were measured by X-ray diffraction method to investigate characteristics for P92 steel welds. The aim of the study is to estimate the residual stress and FWHM distribution characteristics. A compressive residual stress distributed as a function of depth has a different pattern in welds and base metal. A large tensile residual stress occurs welds and near the HAZ, but approaches gradually zero as away from the welding center. Residual stress and FWHM undergo rapid relaxation after PWHT. Also, FWHM is a scalar quantity without any directional difference and is proportional to hardness on the whole.

X-ray diffraction method has been employed to calibrate the stress of 6082 aluminum alloy which has been widely used among modern industrial products. Based on elastic tensile conditions, by designing rod sample of uniform intensity calibration (RSUIC), the stress measurement by X-ray diffraction method has been verificated by using elastic tensile theory calculation method and electrometric method. The results show that the stress measured by the tensile stress theoretical calculation, electrometric method and X-ray diffraction method was in good accordance with each other. And the matching relation between the surface stress measured by X-ray diffraction and the internal stress is investigated. The research will lay a foundation for the application of iXRD stress instrument for nondestructive measuring the welding residual stress of aluminum alloy.

Water jet cavitation peening is applied to improve the strength and mechanical properties of the friction-welded joints of titanium alloys. Scanning electron microscopy observations of the microstructure of the welded joints and welded area before/after water jet cavitation peening confirm slip dislocation at the microstructure near the surface of the specimens. The residual stress on the surface of the welded joint is measured by X-ray diffraction. The results indicate the effect of peening time on the strength of compressive residual stress.

In this study, 8009 heat resistant aluminum alloy was synthesized by the spray atomization and deposition technique. The microstructure and mechanical properties of the alloy were studied using transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and tensile tests. The secondary phases in the microstructure of the spray-deposited alloy were examined. The tensile test results indicate that the spray-deposited 8009 alloy both at room and elevated temperature displays superior tensile strength due to the presence of the thermally stable Al12(Fe,V)3Si particles.

In locally long fiber reinforced aluminum parts two types residual stresses exist. They are the microscopic residual stress between fiber and matrix and the macroscopic residual stress between reinforced and unreinforced zones. The residual stresses between fiber and matrix in γ-Al2O3 long fiber reinforced aluminum alloy Al-6-1-1 were measured with X-ray Diffraction process as well as simulated with FEM method. The results indicated that the residual stresses in both fiber and matrix were distributed very unequally. The maximum tensile residual stress occurred at the boundary in the matrix and the maximum compressive residual stresses occurred near the boundary in the fiber. The macroscopic residual stresses between the reinforced and unreinforced zones were also measured with borehole method as well as simulated with FEM. It was found that the macroscopic residual stresses at most locations in both the reinforced and unreinforced zones were not harmfully high. However in both reinforced and unreinforced zones there were small sub-zones of very large tensile residual stresses.

A large number of cracks are found in the 1500m3Liquefied Light hydrocarbons vessel during the inspection after two years of running.In totally,six vessels being fully heated treated is made of 15MnNbR. Researchers used X-ray stress analyzer measured the welding residual stress of vessels that have been cracked and uncracked. The results show that, residual stress of uncracked spherical vessels are in good condition, while those value of cracked is high, the value of the highest is 1.05σs. It indicates that the possible reason for the separation is the residual stress in the high state. Through welding and heat treated for the second time, the welding residual stress decreased obviously. It indicates the impact of this measure is good.

Residual stresses are inherent stresses that exist in engineering components even though no external load is applied. They are caused by the non-uniform volumetric shift of the metallic component during manufacturing processes. Welding is a key manufacturing technique that has a substantial impact on the economy since it is required for the production of a diverse variety of products used in the engineering sector. The residual stress primarily affects the stability, durability and performance of the welded joints. Hence its determination is of utmost importance. X-ray diffraction (XRD) is the most commonly used method for residual stress analysis. There are mainly two approaches for measuring residual stress using XRD; one is the sin2ψ method and the other is the cosα method. The residual stress measurements using the cosα method are handy, quick and convenient compared to the sin2ψ method. This method is well suited for welded joints, as it provides flexibility for testing immediately after the welding operation. Apart from residual stress measurements, the cosα method also gives valuable insights in the form of Debye-Scherrer (DS) rings and full width at half maximum. The present study focuses on the development of a novel technique that not only enables residual stress measurement but also provides a quantitative estimation of hardness and qualitative estimation of grain size without performing metallurgical or mechanical characterization. The material used for the present study is an arc-welded joint of MDN 250 grade maraging steel. The residual stress results show a compressive profile throughout the weldment, with a maximum value of compressive residual stress of 428 MPa at the fusion zone.
