Since the method of X-ray multiaxial stress analysis (ψ-splitting problem) was proposed by Dolle and Hauk, their method is often utilized for residual stress evaluation on a processed surface. However, as pointed out by thanselves, a theoretical problem still remains on the assumption of the stress state. Namely, the effect of ψ-splitting is impossible unless stress gradients with respect to the direction of the depth in σ13 or σ23 are present, because these components and σ33 have to vanish at the outer surface. Actually, we often find the 2θ vs. sin2ψ relations which do not agree with their theory. In this paper, we proposed a new method for X-ray multiaxial stress analysis in which the effect of stress gradient was considered. The basic equation of this method was solved by means of the integral method proposed by Lode and Peiter. The validity of the present method was proved through a numerical simulation and an experiment.

In this paper the microstructural and residual-stress analysis of an induction hardened plate of medium carbon steel is described. The stress gradient was determined using laboratory X-ray diffraction (IWT, Bremen, Germany) and neutron strain scanning (ILL, Grenoble, France). Due to slight variations of chemical composition in the depth, matchstick like (cross section 2×2mm²) d0-reference samples were prepared from a similarly treated sample. The d0shift induced by variation of chemical composition was measured by neutron and by X-ray diffraction along the strain free direction (sin²ψ*) and used for the evaluation of the neutron stress calculation. The d0distribution obtained from the neutron measurement did not appear reliable while the method using X-ray diffraction seems to be an efficient and reliable method to determine d0profiles in small samples. The evaluation of neutron measurements was then done using the X-ray diffraction d0distribution. High compressive residual stresses were measured in the hardened layer followed by high tensile residual stresses in the core. A comparison of the neutron measurements with X-ray diffraction (XRD) depth profiles obtained after successive layer removal showed that both methods give similar results. However, these investigations opened the question about the direct comparison of the residual stresses obtained by neutron and XRD. Indeed, a correction of the neutron data regarding the residual stresses in thickness direction might be necessary as these are released in the case of X-ray diffraction measurements after layer removal.

When X-ray residual stresses are determined taking into account the stress gradients within the penetration depth of X-rays, three assumptions have usually been made; 1) the stress gradient is linear in respect to the depth from the specimen surface, 2) the penetration depth of X-rays is a function of Sin2ψ and 3) the strain measured by X-rays corresponds to the average strain weighted on the intensity of the diffracted X-rays. However, the assumption of the penetration depth of X-rays is the reason we sometimes observed noticeable errors which depend on the combination of stress components in the stress tensor.

Aluminum alloy (Al-7075-T6) samples were analyzed to determine the in-depth residual stress profile induced by a shot-peening treatment. The influence of coverage degree and Almen intensity on the surface residual stress and on the sub-surface residual stress gradient was investigated. Residual stress profiles were obtained using three different techniques: (i) standard laboratory X-ray diffraction (XRD) residual stress analysis with progressive chemical layer-removal; (ii) XRD residual stress analysis with synchrotron radiation using different X-ray energies, thus changing the penetration depths, and (iii) Blind Hole Drilling (BHD). A comprehensive comparison of the results given by the used techniques is shown.

As known well, non-linear sin2ϕ diagrams are observed from materials having either steep gradients of residual stresses paralell to the surface normal of the specimen or tri-axial stress components. Many authors have reported on this problem for several processing such as polishing and grinding etc. The authors also obtained such non-linear data from an electro-plated zinc—nickel alloy. For these cases, the sin2ϕ method is inadequate for the stress evaluation. Much attention has been given to the stress analysis from about 1970s as compared to the X-ray elastic constants for this phenomenon.
