Stress Formation

The effect of deposition rate on the residual stresses formed during the laser cladding of Ti-6Al-4V powder onto a Ti-6Al-4V substrate was investigated. To isolate the deposition rate from the heat input an analytical laser cladding model was employed to control the melt pool depth to 0.1mm. The clad height was also held constant by the model at 1mm. The laser traversing speed was varied between 300 and 1500 mm/min. The residual stresses were measured using the contour method and it was found that the distribution of residual stress was similar for the different deposition rates and that there was a small variation in the tensile stress level reached in the clad and heat affected zone (HAZ) layer. The microstructures for all three clad layers were a’ martensite and the size of the HAZ was consistent from sample to sample. It was concluded that residual stress development is independent of deposition speed for the laser cladding of Ti-6Al-4V.

A plate (30mm thick) of aluminum alloy 7085-T76 was quenched into water at room temperature after solution treated at 470°C. The quenching residual stresses distributions were studied by both experimental measurement and FEM (Finite Element Method) simulation. The experimental measurement was accomplished by using the contour method, and the FEM simulation was carried out to verify the experimental results. The experimental quenching residual stress distributions showed the tensile stresses of 74.8MPa ~109MPa in the center part, and compressive stresses of 29MPa-63.6MPa on the surface. The prediction distributions showed the maximum tensile stress of 98.2MPa in the center and the maximum compressive stress of 50.5MPa on the surface. The experimental quenching residual stresses distributions agree favorably with the prediction results. The deviations of the maximum tensile stress were less than 25MPa in the center. The deviations may be attributed to the accuracy of the contour method and the idealization of the prediction model.

Residual Stress Profile

A powerful new method for residual stress measurement is presented. A part is cut in two, and the contour, or profile, of the resulting new surface is measured to determine the displacements caused by release of the residual stresses. Analytically, for example using a finite element model, the opposite of the measured contour is applied to the surface as a displacement boundary condition. By Bueckner’s superposition principle, this calculation gives the original residual stresses normal to the plane of the cut. This “contour method” is more powerful than other relaxation methods because it can determine an arbitrary cross-sectional area map of residual stress, yet more simple because the stresses can be determined directly from the data without a tedious inversion technique. The new method is verified with a numerical simulation, then experimentally validated on a steel beam with a known residual stress profile.

In this study, a mock-up of a nuclear safe-end dissimilar metal weld (DMW) joint (SA508-3/316L) was manufactured. The manufacturing process involved cladding and buttering of the ferritic steel tube (SA508-3). It was then subjected to a stress relief heat treatment before being girth welded together with the stainless steel tube (316L). The finished mock-up was subsequently machined to its final dimension. The weld residual stresses were thoroughly characterised using neutron diffraction and the contour method. A detailed finite element (FE) modelling exercise was also carried out for the prediction of the weld residual stresses resulting from the manufacturing processes of the DMW joint. Both the experimental and numerical results showed high levels of tensile residual stresses predominantly in the hoop direction of the weld joint in its final machined condition, tending towards the OD surface. The maximum hoop residual stress determined by the contour method was 500 MPa, which compared very well with the FE prediction of 467.7 Mpa. Along the neutron scan line at the OD subsurface across the weld joint, both the contour method and the FE modelling gave maximum hoop residual stress near the weld fusion line on the 316L side at 388.2 and 453.2 Mpa respectively, whereas the neutron diffraction measured a similar value of 480.6 Mpa in the buttering zone near the SA508-3 side. The results of this research thus demonstrated the reasonable consistency of the three techniques employed in revealing the level and distribution of the residual stresses in the DMW joint for nuclear applications.

Fatigue cracks mostly initiate at areas subjected to high tensile residual stress and stress concentration. Ultrasonic peening is a mechanical method to increase fatigue life by imparting compressive residual stress. In this study residual stresses are characterized in fillet welded ship structural steel plates with longitudinal attachments. As-welded, ultrasonically peened, and specimens peened then subjected to accelerated corrosion testing were measured. Residual stress characterization was performed by the contour method and neutron diffraction.

Multipass Welding

Multipass arc welding is commonly used for thick plates assemblies in shipbuilding. Sever thermal cycles induced by the process generate inhomogeneous plastic deformation and residual stresses. Metallurgical transformations contribute at each pass to the residual stress evolution. Since residual stresses can be detrimental to the performance of the welded product, their estimation is essential and numerical modelling is useful to predict them. Finite element analysis of multipass welding of a high strength steel is achieved with a special emphasis on mechanical and metallurgical effects on residual stress. A welding mock-up was specially designed for experimental measurements of in-depth residual stresses using contour method and deep hole drilling and to provide a simplified case for simulation. The computed results are discussed through a comparison with experimental measurements.

Chemical Vapor Deposition Diamond

Diamond films were deposited on the p-type Si substrate with the hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HFCVD). Residual stresses in the films were measured in air by the laser curvature, the x-ray diffraction (XRD) dϕψ − sin2ψ, and the Raman peak shift methods. All of the measuring methods showed similar behaviors of residual stress that changed from a compressive to a tensile stress with increasing the film thickness. However, values of residual stresses obtained through the Raman and XRD methods were 3–4 times higher than those of the curvature method. These discrepancies involved the setting of materials constants of CVD diamond film, and determination of a peak shifting on the XRD and Raman method. In order to elucidate the disparity, we measured a Young's moduli of diamond films by using the sonic resonance method. In doing so, the Raman and XRD peak shift were calibrated by bending diamond/Si beams with diamond films by a known amount, with stress levels known a priori from the beam theory, and by monitoring the peak shifts simultaneously. Results of each measuring method showed well coincidental behaviors of residual stresses which have the stress range from −0.5 GPa to +0.7 GPa, and an intrinsic stress was caused about +0.7 GPa with tensile stress.

The surface of Al2O3 coating sprayed on 40Cr substrate was re-melted with high power continuous CO2 laser, and its micro-hardness and residual stresses were measured, respectively. The strengthening mechanism of Al2O3 coating by laser re-melting was analyzed and discussed. The experimental results shown that the surface of Al2O3 coating by laser re-melting is neat and smooth, and its compositions are even, its structures are compact, and Al2O3 coating is evenly distributed in its surface with grain forms, and its micro-hardness increases about 200%; Residual stress of Al2O3 coating by laser re-melting is changed into compressive stress from tensile stress, which is benefit to improving bonding strength of coating-substrate interface.

Residual stresses of alumina thin film deposited on silicon substrate by using electron beam evaporation with oblique angle deposition (OAD) method are studied. The growth parameters that affect the residual stresses of alumina thin film, such as the substrate temperature, the deposition rate, the film thickness, the inclined angle, and the testing temperature are discussed. The results show that the tensile stress value decreases with the increasing substrate temperature, and the compressive stress value increases with the increasing substrate temperature at various inclined angles. Along with the deposition rate increasing, the residual stress value decreases at various inclined angles. With the increasing film thickness, the residual stress value decreases at various inclined angles. With the increasing testing temperature, the residual stress value increases at various inclined angles. While the alumina thin film residual stress value is small at high inclined angle. By choosing the appropriate film preparation parameters, the alumina thin film residual stress is effectively controlled.

Resistant Steel

To reduce the influence of internal residual stress on the processing deformation of thin-walled hydrogen-resistant steel components, combined aging cryogenic and high-temperature treatment was used to eliminate the residual stress, and the effect of cryogenic process parameters on the initial residual stress of the specimens was compared and analyzed based on the contour method. X-ray diffraction, electron backscatter diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy were used to research the mechanism of the effect of cryogenic treatment on the internal residual stress of the specimen. After forging, the internal residual stress distribution of the hydrogen-resistant steel specimens without aging was characterized by tensile stress on the core and compressive stress on both sides, with a stress amplitude of −350–270 MPa. After compound treatment of -130 °C for 10 h and 350 °C for 2 h, the internal residual stress distribution remained unchanged, and the stresses decreased to −150–100 MPa. The internal residual stresses were reduced by 57%–63% compared with the untreated specimens. The cryogenic treatment did not cause phase transformation and carbide precipitation of the hydrogen-resistant steel material. Instead, grain refinement and dislocation density depletion were the main reasons for the reduction in internal residual stresses in the specimens.

In this research, the residual stresses distribution resulting from one of the severe plastic deformation methods called Constrained Groove Pressing in pure copper sheets has been studied experimentally and numerically. For this purpose, after the initial preparation of each sample, the mentioned process is applied to the samples up to three passes. After each pass, the residual stresses in these samples in both directions of their length and width have been measured experimentally. To measure the residual stresses in these samples, the contour method, which is a relatively new, effective, and accurate method in providing a two-dimensional residual stress map, has been used. The results indicate that the residual stresses on the surfaces of the samples are compressive and by moving towards the central layers of them, these stresses are converted into tensile residual stresses. The distribution of residual stresses along the length and width of the samples is reported to be relatively uniform. In another part of this research, numerical simulation of the Constrained Groove Pressing process in ABAQUS finite element software is discussed. In this simulation, Johnson–Cook model is used as a constitutive model. The average error of residual stress distribution between the simulation and contour method was about 18% which shown a good agreement.
