AbstractA rapid method to measure residual strains using x-rays during continuous temperature ramping has been developed whereby resolution of ±5xl0-5 can be attained with 2θ scans of about one minute using low index reflections. The method was used to make residual stress measurements during temperature cycling at heating rates of 2 to 15°C/min with interrupted stress relaxations at 235°C and 130°C on pure Al blanket films of 0.24μm, 0.58μm and 1.01 μm thicknesses. The results are consistent with the notion that surface sources are activated by the back stress of misfit dislocations.

This work shows the effect of the initial residual stress state on the stress relaxation behavior of cold-drawn steel rods. The evolution of residual strains at several locations along the rod diameter was measured in-situ by neutron diffraction during a stress relaxation experiment. It was found that if residual stresses are significant, stress relaxation is not homogeneous in the cross-section of the rods. This also explains the higher stress losses found in the rods with high residual stresses.

Measurement of residual strains by neutron diffraction of linear friction welded Inconel® 718 (IN 718) superalloy acquired from a mid-service aero-engine disk was undertaken in this study. Residual strain and stress throughout the various weld regions including the heat affected zone (HAZ), thermomechanical affected zone (TMAZ) and dynamically recrystallized zone (DRX) were characterized. The residual stresses were observed to increase from the base material to the weld interface, with a peak stress at the weld interface in all orthogonal directions. The trends for residual stress across the weld are in agreement with other work published in literature for solid state welding of aerospace alloys, where high residual stresses were commonly reported at the weld interface.

Residual stresses of a copper bicrystal were measured by X-ray diffraction and synchrotron radiation. A copper bicrystal specimen with a 90-degree tilt boundary was fabricated by the Brigdman technique. After the plastic extension of 30%, kink bands developed in a deformed matrix along the grain boundary. In this study, we focused on the residual stress distribution along the transverse direction of the specimen surface and the residual stresses in deformed matrix and kink band near the grain boundary. Residual stresses were evaluated by the X-ray single crystal measurement method. Stereographic projections were used to determine crystal orientations of deformed regions. It was found that crystal orientations were different between the deformed matrix and the kink band. Residual stresses in the direction along the grain boundary were compressive in the vicinity of the boundary and tensile in the region apart from the boundary. Residual stresses in the kink band were large in compression in compared with those in the deformation matrix. The difference in the results between X-rays and synchrotron radiation suggests that there is a depth variation in the deformation and therefore the residual stress development.

This paper discusses the technological method of residual stress relaxation of bearing rings by centerless running with cylindrical rolls. Described a new approach to relieve residual stresses by centerless running of elastically-deforming rolls on the basis of the geometrical setup of the equipment. It was found that geometrical setup of the equipment influences an elastic strain of parts and the degree of residual stress relaxation. We obtained a mathematical model for calculation of setup parameters to ensure the required variation value of elastic strain of the part. The results of experiments confirm the influence of the geometric setup on the magnitude of residual stress relaxation.

The residual strain field around the scratches of 125µm depth and 5µm root radius have been measured from the Synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Scratches were produced using different tools in fine-grained aluminium alloy AA 5091. Residual stresses up to +1700 micro-strains were measured at the scratch tip for one tool but remained up to only +1000 micro-strains for the other tool scratch. The load-displacement curves obtained from nanoindentation were used to determine the residual stresses around the scratches. It was found that the load-displacement curves are sensitive to any local residual stress field present and behave according to the type of residual stresses. This combination of nanoindentation and synchrotron X-rays has been proved highly effective for the study of small-scale residual stresses around the features such as scratches.

Using a three-dimensional crystal plasticity model for cyclic deformation of lath martensitic steel, a simplified scheme is adopted to simulate the effects of shot peening on inducing initial compressive residual stresses. The model is utilized to investigate the subsequent cyclic relaxation of compressive residual stresses in shot peened lath martensitic gear steel in the high cycle fatigue (HCF) regime. A strategy is identified to model both shot peening and cyclic loading processes for polycrystalline ensembles. The relaxation of residual stress field during cyclic bending is analyzed for strain ratios Rε=0 and −1 for multiple realizations of polycrystalline microstructure. Cyclic microplasticity in favorably oriented martensite grains is the primary driver for the relaxation of residual stresses in HCF. For the case of Rε=−1, the cyclic plasticity occurs throughout the microstructure (macroplasticity) during the first loading cycle, resulting in substantial relaxation of compressive residual stresses at the surface and certain subsurface depths. The initial magnitude of residual stress is observed to influence the degree (percentage) of relaxation. Describing the differential intergranular yielding is necessary to capture the experimentally observed residual stress relaxation trends.

This study deals with the indentation method of measuring residual stress in structural ceramics. First we investigate the appropriate pretreatment for measuring fracture toughness (basis value, KC) while avoiding any influence from residual stress, which is important when estimating residual stress using the indentation method. Based on the fracture toughness value, the residual stresses in Al2O3, Si3N4 and ZrO2 ceramics are estimated using the indentation method. Phase transformation is a problem when estimating residual stress using the indentation method with ZrO2 ceramics. Residual stresses in Al2O3 and Si3N4 can be largely eliminated by annealing the specimen after hand grinding. Consequently, it is thought that this treatment method is effective for determining the basis value KC. The estimated residual stress values in Al2O3 and Si3N4 obtained by the indentation method at 98 N corresponded closely to the values obtained wih X-rays. The residual stress value obtained by the indentation method for ZrO2 was close to the value obtained through the X-ray method, when the indentation load was 294 N. When estimating the residual stress in ZrO2 using the indentation method, the influence of the phase transformation caused by the indentation is added onto the original residual stress, when the indentation is small. The influence becomes smaller when the indentation load is large. If the applied indentation load is between 294 N and 490 N, the indentation method is effective for estimating the residual stresses in Al2O3, Si3N4 and ZrO2 ceramics.

This study is an experimental comparison of in-depth X-ray diffraction residual stress measurements with neutron diffraction measurements. The goal is to evaluate the relevance of the Savaria-Bridier-Bocher [1] stress relaxation correction method. Neutron diffraction are performed on a bent notched specimen. Destructive X-ray diffraction is performed until 5.25mm below the surface by polishing the material. This polishing induces stress relaxation and X-ray diffraction results have to be corrected. For that purpose, a finite element analysis is realised and show good correlation with neutron measurements results. The application of the stress correction method improves the X-ray measurements especially after 2 mm below the surface. The differences between measured and corrected residual stresses from both diffraction techniques are analyzed and discussed.

Laboratory X-ray diffraction is commonly used for surface residual stresses determination. Nevertheless, the in-depth residual stress gradient also needs to be known. Chemical or electro-polishing method is generally used for material removal. However, material removal may seek a new equilibrium and stress field may change in such a way that experimental residual stress values must be corrected. Different methods exist to account for the residual stress relaxation associated with the material removal operation and will be discussed in this paper.
