Residual stress distribution in an oblique nozzle jointed to a vessel with J-groove welds was analyzed using a three-dimensional finite element method. All welding passes were considered in a 180-degree finite element (FE) model with symmetry. Temperature and stress were modeled for simultaneous bead laying. To determine residual stress distributions at the welds experimentally, a mock-up specimen was manufactured. The analytical results show good agreement with the experimental measurement data, indicating that FE modeling is valid.

The accuracy of a destructive, experimental method for the evaluation of through-thickness residual stress distributions is investigated. The application of the method is to a welded pipe that has been subjected to a residual stress improvement process. The residual stress improvement process introduces gradients in the stress distribution. The question of interest is how well the back-computation method used to interpret the experimental data represents the residual stress distribution for this type of stress profile. To address this question, a finite element model was used to provide a reference stress solution for comparison with the back-computation results of the experimental method. Three-dimensional finite element stress analyses were also conducted to simulate the cutting steps of the destructive laboratory procedure. The residual stress distributions obtained by the back-computation procedure were then compared with the reference stress solutions provided by the finite element model. The comparisons show agreement and indicate that good results can be expected from the experimental method when it is applied to a pipe that has been subjected to a residual stress improvement process, provided that the axial gradient of stress is not too large.

A cold expansion process is used to prolong the fatigue life of a structure under cyclic loadings. The process produces a beneficial compressive residual stress zone in the hole vicinity, which retards the initiation and propagation of the crack at the hole edge. In this study, a three-dimensional finite element model of the split-sleeve cold expansion process was developed to predict the resulting residual stress field. A thin rectangular aluminum sheet with a centrally located hole was considered. A rigid mandrel and an elastic steel split sleeve were explicitly modeled with the appropriate contact elements at the interfaces between the mandrel, the sleeve, and the hole. Geometrical and material nonlinearities were included. The simulation results were compared with experimental measurements of the residual stress. The influence of friction and the prescribed boundary conditions for the sheet were studied. Differences between the split-sleeve- and the non-split-sleeve model solutions are discussed.

A hat channel, also called a furring channel, is a channel with a bottom horizontal web and two vertical flanges, as well as an outward lip that is fabricated by roll forming. When the channel is cut off at a specified length, the edge of the product will change due to the release of residual stress, and this change is generally called cut end deformation. The cut end deformation of channel steel was investigated via experiment and three-dimensional finite-element simulation. The effect of initial thickness on the cut end deformation of hat channel steel was studied. For hat channel steel, the deformations at the front end and back end increase when the sheet metal thickness increases. However, the influence of initial thickness on the cut end deformation of hat-shape channel steel is small.

A simple design of a letterbox-type repair weld on a plate is evaluated as a benchmark problem. Residual stresses are recorded using the non-destructive neutron diffraction technique and compared with predictions by full three-dimensional finite element modelling. The comparison is performed over a number of path lines in an attempt to evaluate both methods as potential residual stress assessment tools, for weld repairs. The proposed finite element methodology is based on uncoupled quasi-static thermoelasticity and incorporates the element activation–deactivation technique for simulating weld deposition. Sensitivity analysis indicates that the effect of heat loss due to radiation on predicted residual stresses is negligible, whereas incorporation of full annealing into the model is recommended. The diffractometer used, is STRESS-SPEC, located at the FRMII research reactor (Munich, Germany) and comprises a highly flexible monochromator arrangement and a two-dimensional position-sensitive 3He detector. The success of the repair weld benchmark design is illustrated by not only the satisfactory correlation between experimental and computational results in the form of residual stress but also temperature history data.
