Invar 36 alloy is widely used in manufacturing instruments because of its minimal thermal expansion coefficient. As an important material for the components of precision or super-precision instruments, the process methods for Invar and the structure stability after its machining is necessary. In this paper, the residual stresses of the Invar samples after plane grinding were measured. The experimental results indicate that clear tension stress exists in the surface of Invar alloy along the grinding direction, while, on the cross direction, the states of surface residual stresses are complicated and affected by the parameters of grinding. A typical disk model has been calculated and analyzed by Finite Element Method (FEM), and the deformation caused by surface residual stress was presented. Finally, the effect of grinding as final working procedure on the stability of Invar structure was estimated.

The generation and distribution of workpiece surface and sub-surface residual stress were predicted through the dynamic finite element simulation of the grinding ceramic process. The base of the simulation is that the thermo elastic-plastic finite element theory and the coupling of grinding forces and temperature were adopted. The results obtained from X-ray diffraction measurement compared well with the values calculated from theory. The correlation between grinding parameters and the ceramic residual stresses was investigated. The research results show that the normal grinding force is the primary factor responsible for the generation of residual stress in grinding ceramic. The mechanical effect of the grains is to affect the magnitude, the depth of penetration and the gradient of the residual stresses.

Management of the residual stress state is vital for the design and production stages of carburised components in order to satisfy the technical requirements related to performance, fatigue behaviour and useful lifetime. This enforces the use of practical, reliable and time- and cost-effective stress measurement methods by manufacturers. This study aims to investigate the efficiency of the magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) method in rapid non-destructive determination of surface residual stresses in carburised steels. A series of AISI 8620 steel specimens with different residual stress states was prepared by altering the carburising and subsequent tempering parameters. The specimens were characterised through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) investigations and hardness measurements, and the surface residual stresses were determined using both the MBN and X-ray diffraction (XRD) methods. The results show that a good correlation exists between surface residual stress and the parameters derived from the MBN signals.

Micro-slotting, a relaxation residual stress measurement technique, has recently been shown to be an effective method for measuring local residual stresses in a variety of materials. The micro-slotting method relies on a scanning electron microscope–focused ion beam system for milling and imaging, digital image correlation software to track displacements due to residual stress relaxation after milling, and finite element analysis for displacement–stress correlation and calculation of the original stress state in the imaged region. The high spatial resolution of the micro-slotting method makes it a promising technique for obtaining near-surface residual stress data in Ti-6Al-4V components for input into fatigue life models and crack growth simulations. However, use of the micro-slotting method on this alloy has yet to be evaluated against more established measurement techniques. In this study, spatially resolved sub-surface residual stress measurements were obtained on shot peened and low-stress surface-machined Ti-6Al-4V planar coupons using the micro-slotting method and were compared to measurements obtained using the conventional X-ray diffraction depth profiling technique. The sub-surface measurements were in good agreement for the shot peened sample. Observed differences in the measured near-surface residual stresses on the surface-machined sample were attributed to the larger measurement volume of the X-ray diffraction method, suggesting that the micron-sized measurement volume of the micro-slotting method may be more suitable for capturing shallow stress profiles and steep stress gradients. Prior to performing the micro-slotting measurements, finite element modeled displacements were used to verify the measurement procedure and to address uncertainties in the milled slot geometries. The results of this study demonstrated the validity of the micro-slotting procedure and established the technique as a reliable method for measuring sub-surface residual stresses in Ti-6Al-4V.

Introducing a thin cut from the surface of a part containing residual stresses produces a change in strain on the surface. When the strains are measured as a function of the depth of the cut, residual stresses near the surface can be estimated using the compliance method. In previous work, the unknown residual stress field was represented by a series of continuous polynomials. The present paper shows that for stress states with steep gradients, superior predictions are obtained by using “overlapping piecewise functions” to represent the stresses. The stability of the method under the influence of random errors and a zero shift is demonstrated by numerical simulation.

Bone cements are widely used to fix prostheses into bones for joint arthroplasty. During cement curing in total hip arthroplasty, residual stresses are introduced in the cement mantle. A finite element method was developed to predict such residual stress built-up. The effects of curing history on the residual stress distribution were investigated. Results showed that the predictions of the residual stresses agreed with the experimental tests very well. The residual stress build-up was shown to depend on the curing history. By preheating the prosthesis stem prior to implantation, a desired low level residual stress at the critical interface was obtained.

Shot peening is a manufacturing process intended to give components the final shape and to introduce a compressive residual state of stress inside the material in order to increase fatigue life. The modeling and simulation of the residual stress field resulting from the shot peening process are proposed. The behaviour of the peened target material is supposed to be elastic plastic with bilinear characteristics. The results demonstrated the surface layer affected by compressive residual stresses is very thin and the peak is located on the surface.

Using finite element method, the residual stress distribution of the TIG dressed welded toe followed by spray treatment with different cooling intensity was calculated. And the residual stresses of welded toe were also measured by using the blind-hole method. The results indicate that with the increase of cooling intensity, the longitudinal residual stresses in welded toe are gradually transited from tensile residual stresses to compressive ones, and there is no significant change for transverse residual stresses, and the depth of compressive stress layer increases at the welded toe region.

Welding is a complex process where localized and intensive heat is imposed to a piece promoting mechanical and metallurgical changes. Phenomenological aspects of welding process involve couplings among different physical processes and its description is unusually complex. Basically, three couplings are essential: thermal, phase transformation and mechanical phenomena. Welding processes can generate residual stress due to the thermal gradient imposed to the workpiece in association to geometric restrictions. The presence of tensile residual stresses can be especially dangerous to mechanical components submitted to fatigue loadings. The present work regards on study the residual stress in welded superduplex stainless steel pipes using experimental and a numerical analysis. A parametric nonlinear elastoplastic model based on finite element method is used for the evaluation of residual stress in superduplex steel welding. The developed model takes into account the coupling between mechanical and thermal fields and the temperature dependency of the thermomechanical properties. Thermocouples are used to measure the temperature evolution during welding stages. Instrumented hole drilling technique is used for the evaluation of the residual stress after welding process. Experimental data is used to calibrate the numerical model. The methodology is applied to evaluate the behavior of two-pass girth welding (TIG for root pass and SMAW for finishing) in 4 inch diameter seamless tubes of superduplex stainless steel UNS32750. The result shows a good agreement between numerical experimental results. The proposed methodology can be used in complex geometries as a powerful tool to study and adjust welding parameters to minimize the residual stresses on welded mechanical components.

Surface finishing of magnetic recording head materials, such as ferrites, by diamond grinding and lapping results in a residual compressive stress on the surface. Residual stresses alter the magnetic properties of the ferrite causing the recording head performance to deteriorate. Hence, they need to be minimized. This paper considers the role of two processing techniques—annealing and chemical lapping—in controlling residual stress in ferrites. The effect of these processing techniques on various mechanical and physical properties of finished ferrites and the mechanism of residual stress control are discussed.
