Longitudinal Residual Stress

In recent years, due to its excellent mechanical properties, especially its insensitivity of strength to thickness, high-rise structural steel with high performance and heavy thickness made in china was applied more and more widely in large-span and high-rise steel building structures. However, there are no reasonable design indexes based on design reliability analysis for the new material in relevant national standards. The high-rise structural steel was often used as H-section column with heavy thickness at present, and its residual stress distribution has significant influence on load-carrying capacity, which is one of the critical factors in reliability analysis of elementary members using high-rise structural steel. In this paper, with the block sectioning method, a detailed experimental investigation on the longitudinal residual stress distribution for H-section (H800×800×80×80mm), made from Q345GJ high-rise structural steel with thickness of 80mm is introduced. The contour of residual stress distribution in the whole section based on test was presented, and the regularity of the residual stress distribution of such a section was discussed. Meanwhile, the contour of yielding strength distribution in the whole H-shaped section with heavy thickness was obtained. It will provide some basic data for reliability analysis and further investigation of the structural members using high-rise structural steel.

Growth Evaluation

Welds and heat affected zones have the distribution of the residual stress or the yield strength. The crack growth evaluation is conventionally conducted using stress intensity factor in those regions. However, the stress intensity factor may be invalid when the residual stress distribution or yield strength distribution changes in the vicinity of a crack tip. The reason is that the distributions around the crack tip affect the plastic zone size and the stress intensity factor inappropriately represents the stress state in the vicinity of a crack tip. In this study, the residual stress distribution and yield strength distribution was assumed along the crack propagation path and the validity of the stress intensity factor was discussed on that condition. As a result, the stress intensity factor tended to be invalid when the steep residual stress distribution or the steep yield strength distribution. When the steep distribution exists, the crack growth evaluation should be conducted using a parameter considering the elastoplastic behavior near the crack tip. For that purpose, the authors proposed new method of the plastic zone correction using a differential term of the stress intensity factor. The new method was demonstrated through the case study for stress corrosion cracking of nuclear power plants.

Purpose An accurate prediction of process-induced residual stress is necessary to prevent large distortion and cracks in gas metal arc (GMA)-based additive manufactured parts, especially thin-walled parts. The purpose of this study is to present an investigation into predicting the residual stress distributions of a thin-walled component with geometrical features. Design/methodology/approach A coupled thermo-mechanical finite element model considering a general Goldak double ellipsoidal heat source is built for a thin-walled component with geometrical features. To confirm the accuracy of the model, corresponding experiments are performed using a positional deposition method in which the torch is tilted from the normal direction of the substrate. During the experiment, the thermal cycle curves of locations on the substrate are obtained by thermocouples. The residual stresses on the substrate and part are measured using X-ray diffraction. The validated model is used to investigate the thermal stress evolution and residual stress distributions of the substrate and part. Findings Decent agreements are achieved after comparing the experimental and simulated results. It is shown that the geometrical feature of the part gives rise to an asymmetrical transversal residual stress distribution on the substrate surface, while it has a minimal influence on the longitudinal residual stress distribution. The residual stress distributions of the part are spatially uneven. The longitudinal tensile residual stress is the prominent residual stress in the central area of the component. Large wall-growth tensile residual stresses, which may cause delamination, appear at both ends of the component and the substrate–component interfaces. Originality/value The predicted residual stress distributions of the thin-walled part with geometrical features are helpful to understand the influence of geometry on the thermo-mechanical behavior in GMA-based additive manufacturing.

The paper simulated and researched the straightening process of heavy rail by finite element software of ANSYS/LS-DYNA. The residual stress of the rail head, rail base, rail loin in the 7th deformation zone meets the real straightening condition in the straightening simulation. The calculation indicates: The residual stress of the rail head, rail base, rail loin in various deformation zones varies significantly like the variation of tensile-compression-tensile. Compared with the on-site rule, the residual stress of rail base decreased155 Mpa, this is in agreement with the values of practice.

This paper presents a destructive procedure for the determination of longitudinal residual stress distribution in a thin layer in the vicinity of the running surface of a rail head and the neighbouring area of rail cross-section. Wheel passages on the track produce plastic deformation in the running surface layer and thereby create a strong compression with a sharp stress gradient in the layer. This longitudinal stress distribution is a very important component of the stress pattern and strongly influences crack propagation in the rail head.

Steel Piles

During manufacturing the welded joint of steel structures, residual stress is produced and weld metal is used inevitably. And residual stress and weld metal influence on the static and dynamic mechanical behavior of steel structures. Therefore, to predict the mechanical behavior of steel pile with a welded joint during static and dynamic deformation, the research on the influence of the welded joints on the static and dynamic behavior of steel pile is clarified. In this paper, the residual stress distribution in a welded joint of steel piles was investigated by using three-dimensional welding analysis. The static and dynamic mechanical behavior of steel piles with a welded joint is investigated by three-dimensional elastic-plastic finite element analysis using a proposed dynamic hysteresis model. Numerical analyses of the steel pile with a welded joint were compared to that without a welded joint with respect to load carrying capacity and residual stress distribution. The influence of the welded joint on the mechanical behavior of steel piles during static and dynamic deformation was clarified by comparing analytical results
