The unknown and uneven macro-residual stresses in blanks will cause deformation on large-scale component, especially in non-prestretched plates. Based on the retrieval of stress field by measuring stress changes due to the rebalance of stresses after machining, a new idea is proposed in this paper to predict and control the machining deformation of large-scale components. It consists of analysis of the machining deformation, retrieval of macro-residual stress field, and finally optimization of following cutting process. In the retrieval process, the stresses are measured with an improved hole-drilling method and the measured data are then interpolated to 3D stress field.

In this paper, an error analysis is carried out to discuss two important parameters that influence the accuracy in the measurement of residual stress by the hole-drilling technique. The first is the error associated with zero strain phenomenon that occurs for certain orientations of the strain gauges. A rigorous condition for zero strain point is given and measurement accuracy is discussed when the zero strain point phenomenon occurs. Secondly, the calculated residual stress field is affected by the methods chosen for the estimation and calibration of the relieved strain coefficients. The errors associated with the estimation of the relieved strain coefficients are also discussed along with their useful range for the calculation of the residual stress field.

The in-plane residual stresses in laser cladded specimens, made of 12-nickel precipitation hardening maraging hot-working tool steel 1.2799 (SIST EN 10027-2) are analyzed using the hole drilling method. The CO2 laser was used to deposit the alloy NiCoMo-1 with significantly higher content of nickel and cobalt with austenitic microstructure at room temperature. The Nd:YAG laser was used to deposit the maraging alloy designated NiCoMo-2, with similar chemical composition as the base material. The comparison of residual stress field showed the sign and the magnitude of residual stresses depends on the chemical composition of the clad being deposited. The high tensile residual stresses were found in NiCoMo-1 layers and favorable compressive residual stresses were found in NiCoMo-2 layers. The metallurgical aspects of residual stress generation are discussed.

A finite-element computer program, which takes into consideration nonlinear material behavior after the yield point has been exceeded, has been used to analyze the thermal stresses in railroad freight car wheels subjected to severe drag brake heating. The analysis has been used with typical wheel material properties and wheel configurations to determine the thermal stress field and the extent of regions in the wheel where the yield point is exceeded. The resulting changes in the residual stress field after the wheel has cooled to ambient temperature have also been calculated. It is shown that severe drag braking can lead to the development of residual circumferential tensile stresses in the rim and radial compressive stresses in the plate near both the hub and rim fillets.

Relieved strains due to drilling hole in a ring sample cut from an autofrettage cylinder are measured. Measured strains are then transformed to residual stresses using calibration constants and mathematical relations of elasticity based on ASTM standard recommendations (American Society for Testing and Materials, ASTM E 837-08, 2008, “Standard Test Method for Determining Residual Stresses by the Hole-Drilling Strain-Gage Method,” American Society for Testing and Materials). The hydraulic autofrettage is pressurizing a closed-end long cylinder beyond its elastic limits and subsequently removing the pressure. In contrast to three-dimensional stress state in the autofrettage tube, the stress measurement in hole drilling method is performed on a traction free surface formed from cutting the ring sample. The process of cutting the ring sample from a long autofrettaged tube is simulated using finite element method (FEM) and the redistribution of the residual stress due to the cut is discussed. Hence, transformation of the hole drilling measurements on the ring slice to the autofrettage residual stresses is revealed. The residual stresses are also predicted by variable material properties (VMP) method (Jahed, H., and Dubey, R. N., 1997, “An Axisymmetric Method of Elastic-Plastic Analysis Capable of Predicting Residual Stress Field,” Trans. ASME J. Pressure Vessel Technol., 119, pp. 264–273) using real loading and unloading behavior of the test material. Prediction results for residual hoop stress agree very well with the measurements. However, radial stress predictions are less than measured values particularly in the middle of the ring. To remove the discrepancy in radial residual stresses, the measured residual hoop stress that shows a self-balanced distribution was taken as the basis for calculating residual radial stresses using field equations of elasticity. The obtained residual stresses were improved a lot and were in good agreement with the VMP solution.

The incremental hole-drilling method is a widely used technique to determine residual stress depth profiles in technical components. Its application is limited in respect to the components geometry, for instance the components thickness. In this paper, a direct correction of the measured strain relaxations is proposed to consider the impact of deviant geometries, here the component thickness, on the residual stress evaluation that moreover, allows the application of commercially available evaluation software. The herein proposed approach is based on finite element simulation of the incremental hole drilling. The simulated strain relaxations for thin metal sheets are evaluated with an algorithm as used in commercially available evaluation software (i) for uncorrected data as well as (ii) for strain data corrected by the proposed correction procedure. It is shown that the correction approach leads to a significant improvement of the measurement accuracy. Further, by means of the approach residual stress depth profiles in thin metal sheets can be as usual determined using commercial evaluation software for the incremental hole-drilling method regardless of the algorithm used, i.e. differential or integral.
