Residual stress states in engineering structures are usually determined by measuring components of stress tensors with depth below the material surface. There are destructive and nondestructive methods to measure strain tensor components and convert them into stress tensor components by a variety of techniques derived from constitutive (material) equations. In this study, four methods for determining the strain tensor components are presented: X-ray diffraction method (XRDM), magnetic Barkhausen noise method (MBNM), hole drilling method (HDM), and cut-and-section method (CSM); the first two are nondestructive, and the third and fourth are semidestructive and destructive, respectively. A complementarity of the experimental and two numerical methods such as boundary element method and finite element method is explained. An application of the experimental and numerical methods to measure residual stress states in an industrial component, an L-shaped part of a supporting column in a high voltage structure, is presented.

Key Aspects

AbstractCold extruded components are characterized by residual stresses, which originate from the experienced manufacturing process. For industrial applications, reproducibility and homogeneity of the final components are key aspects for an optimized quality control. Although striving to obtain identical deformation and surface conditions, fluctuation in the manufacturing parameters and contact shear conditions during the forming process may lead to variations of the spatial residual stress distribution in the final product. This could lead to a dependency of the residual stress measurement results on the relative axial and circumferential position on the sample. An attempt to examine this problem is made by the employment of design of experiments (DoE) methods. A statistical analysis of the residual stress results generated through X-Ray diffraction is performed. Additionally, the ability of cold extrusion processes to generate uniform stress states is analyzed on specimens of austenitic stainless steel 1.4404 and possible correlations with the pre-deformed condition are statistically examined. Moreover, the influence of the coating, consisting of oxalate and a MoS2 based lubricant, on the X-Ray diffraction measurements of the surface is investigated.

AbstractThe residual stress distribution in extruded components and wires after a conventional forming process is frequently unfavourable for subsequent processes, such as bending operations. High tensile residual stresses typically occur near the surface of the wire and thus limit further processability of the material. Additional heat treatment operations or shot peening are often inserted to influence the residual stress distribution in the material after conventional manufacturing. This is time and energy consuming. The research presented in this paper contains an approach to influence the residual stress distribution by modifying the forming process for wire-like applications. The aim of this process is to lower the resulting tensile stress levels near the surface or even to generate compressive stresses. To achieve these residual compressive stresses, special forming elements are integrated in the dies. These modifications in the forming zone have a significant influence on process properties, such as degree of deformation and deformation direction, but typically have no influence on the diameter of the product geometry. In the present paper, the theoretical approach is described, as well as the model set-up, the FE-simulation and the results of the experimental tests. The characterization of the residual stress states in the specimen was carried out by X-ray diffraction using the sin2Ψ method.

ABSTRACTThe mechanical properties of thin film materials are known to be different from those of bulk materials, which are generally overlooked in practice. The difference in mechanical properties can be misleading in the estimation of residual stress states in micro-gas sensors with multi-layer structures during manufacturing and in service.In this study the residual stress of each film layer in a micro-gas sensor was measured according to the five difference sets of film stacking structure used for the sensor. The Pt thin film layer was found to have the highest tensile residual stress, which may affect the reliability of the micro-gas sensor. For the Pt layer the changes in residual stress were measured as a function of processing variables and thermal cycling.

Stress States

Thermal influences, introduced intentionally or unintentionally do have significant effects on surfaces of steel components. Materials properties are reduced by annealing effects or even re-hardening zones can occur. Grinding, one of the most important technological processes for preci-sion manufacturing of hardened steel components, is an important source of thermal influences to steel surfaces. In pronounced cases, these influences are referred to as grinding burn. They are known as possible reasons for gray stains as well as development of cracks and pittings on heavy-duty gears and on roller bearings. The basic effect of thermal influences on the material is a change of the macro- and micro-residual stress states. Therefore, the knowledge of these residual stress states is of fundamental importance. The paper treats the mechanisms of grinding which can lead to thermal influences. Some characteristic appearances of grinding burn are shown and characterized by X-ray macro- and micro residual stress determinations. It is shown that defined laser treatments can be used to create reproducible thermal influences similar to grinding burn. Their effects are also characterized by X-ray residual stress measurements. The sensitivities of X-ray and metallographical investigations are compared. Defined laser traces are proposed as calibration samples for magnetic and eddy current measurements which allow to determine threshold values for the actual apparatus and measuring problem.

Integrity Assessments

Numerical methods have been established to simulate welding processes. Of particular interest is the ability to predict residual stress fields. These fields are often used in support of structural integrity assessments where they have the potential, when accurately characterised, to offer significantly less conservative predictions of residual profiles compared to those found in assessment codes such as API 579, BS7910 and R6. However, accurate predictions of residual stress profiles that compare favourably with measurements do not necessarily suggest an accurate prediction of component distortions. This paper presents a series of results that compare predicted distortions for a variety of specimen mock-ups with measurements. A range of specimen thicknesses will be studied including, a 4mm thick DH-36 ferritic plate containing a single bead, a 4mm thick DH-36 ferritic plate containing fillet welds, a 25mm thick 316L austenitic plate containing a groove weld and a 35mm thick esshete 1250 austenitic disc containing a concentric ring weld. For each component, distortion measurements have been compared with the predicted distortions with a number of key features being investigated. These include the influence of ‘small’ vs ‘large’ strain deformation theory, the ability to predict distortions using simplified analysis methods such as simultaneous bead deposition and the influence of specimen thickness on the requirement for particular analysis features. The work provides an extremely useful insight into how existing numerical methods used to predict residual stress fields can be utilised to predict the distortions that occur as a result of the welding fabrication process.

Quantitative Consideration

The developments in the field of residual stress determination during the last decades have contributed to a better understanding of the origins and sources of residual stresses in different engineering disciplines. The many investigations concerning the behavior of residual stresses under mechanical loading have also provided a solid foundation to clarify the important aspects of residual stresses and fatigue. The question that arises now is if this available body of knowledge is being used effectively in the field of welding technology to design and construct structures with better fatigue performances. In this paper the necessity of the development of the concept residual stress engineering for welds in which wanted residual stress states are tailored for specific cases by appropriate means will be discussed. The possibilities of the quantitative consideration of the benefits in the fatigue design codes will be presented in a practical example.

Mechanical strength and service life of the coatings manufactured by plasma spray forming are significantly reduced by residual stresses. A 2D finite element model constructed for temperature and residual stress simulation of a single stainless steel splat solidifying and cooling on the carbon steel substrate is presented in this paper. Simulated results show that the temperature of the splat rim is higher than that of the central part during the initial stage of solidification, and the temperature difference between the two parts reverse thereafter. The minimum residual stress locates at the rim of the top surface of the splat, and the maximum residual stress, which decreases when the substrate is preheated to a higher temperature, situates at the rim of the interface. Stresses appear as tensile stresses within the splat and compressive stresses within the substrate. The research can provide quantitative understanding of the temperature and residual stress states at the splat level.
