In this work the reliability of the hole-drilling technique (HDT) for measuring welding residual stresses was analysed. HDT residual stress results were systematically compared with those determined by X-ray diffraction. A systematic overestimation of the residual stresses determined by HDT was observed, which was mainly attributed to the possibility of the so-called plasticity effect occurring. Experimental results were discussed taking the measurement principles of both techniques into consideration. In addition, preliminary results of a numerical study, using the finite element method, will be presented for a better understanding of the plasticity effect on HDT residual stress results.

The incremental hole-drilling technique was applied to determine residual stress profiles in shot-peened steel layers. The accuracy of using an enhanced Digital Speckle Pattern Interferometry technique for measuring the strain relaxation arising around the drilled holes and, consequently, the in-depth residual stress distribution induced by shot-peening, was evaluated. The experimental results were systematically compared with those determined using standard electric strain-gauges. The X-ray diffraction technique was chosen as reference due to its high accuracy to determine shot-peening residual stresses.

This paper presents the state of the art and the progress made in the numerical simulation of the stress state in a complex multi-material structure, using not only sophisticated finite element tools, but also the simplified engineering methods. A comparison of the numerical results concerning residual stresses is made with those measured using X-ray diffraction method and incremental hole-drilling technique. Finally, an example is given on the analysis of a fully circumferential crack in a typical bimetallic weld under pressure, thermal, and residual stresses. [S0094-9930(00)00703-4]

Friction stir welding (FSW) is a well-known technique which allows joining of metal parts without severe distortion. Because FSW involves less heat input relative to conventional welding, it may be assumed that cutting specimens from larger friction stir welded components results in a negligible redistribution of residual stresses. The aim of the investigations was to verify these assumptions for a welded aluminum plate and a circumferentially-welded aluminum cylinder. Strain gage measurements, X-ray diffraction and the incremental hole drilling method were used.

A layer of compressive residual stress extending from the surface of a component can help to extend fatigue life, but it must remain stable during applied service loading. Metal shot and glass bead peening are traditionally used; introducing a shallow (100–300μm) layer of compressive residual stress and a highly cold worked surface. Laser peening and deep rolling are capable of introducing much deeper compressive residual stresses combined with lower levels of cold work. In this paper we report on the level of shakedown of residual stress brought about by constant strain amplitude fatigue. Glass and metal shot peened, laser peened and deep rolled Ti-6Al-4V samples have been studied. The residual stress profiles as a function of depth have been measured using neutron diffraction, laboratory x-ray diffraction and a hybrid hole-drilling/laboratory x-ray diffraction method. The magnitude and depth of cold work determined for each of the treatment methods. The extent of subsequent residual stress shakedown under different strain amplitudes and load ratios, in deep rolled, glass bead and metal shot peened samples is also assessed.

Residual stress measurements are very challenging in thin aluminium plates. Rolling-induced crystallographic texture can lead to an S-shape fit when using the sin2ψ method for surface X-ray diffraction. Peak broadening and missing peaks can also be observed for synchrotron X-ray diffraction with conventional θ/2θ scanning due to texture. In addition, when measuring near the plate surfaces, partially-filled gauge volumes in diffraction experiments will lead to “pseudo-strains”, an apparent shift between measured and actual positions for the diffraction peak. Obtaining a meaningful value of d0 for strain calculations is another issue for diffraction experiments in thin plates. The low thickness also offers challenges for destructive methods including incremental hole drilling, i.e. there is no defined ASTM standard for measuring non-uniform residual stress profile for thin plates. In this work, 2-mm-thick Al2024-T351 plate was investigated for residual stress fields due to laser peening. Neutron diffraction measurements were carried out at POLDI (Pulse Overlap time-of-flight Diffractometer) in PSI, Switzerland and the results are compared with incremental hole drilling.

Significant Interest

Hole drilling along with X-Ray diffraction, is one of the most widely used techniques for measuring residual stress, but the conventional approach is limited in the near surface detail that can be resolved. Because of concerns regarding the levels of induced residual stress that might develop during machining and surface treatment processes, there is significant interest in developing a technique that can obtain near surface residual stress information by the application of fine increment hole drilling. Through a cross comparison with X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction the procedure of fine incremental drilling has been validated, and the advantages of this technique demonstrated.

Depth Distributions

Experimental analyses of depth distributions of phase-specific residual stresses after deep rolling were carried out by means of laboratory X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction for the two duplex steels X2CrNiMoN22-5-3 and X3CrNiMoN27-5-2, which differ significantly in their ferrite to austenite ratios. The aim of the investigation was to elucidate to which extent comparable results can be achieved with the destructive and the non-destructive approach and how the process induced phase-specific micro residual stresses influence the determination of the phase- and {hkl}-specific reference value d0, required for evaluation of neutron strain scanning experiments. A further focus of the work was the applicability of correction approaches that were developed originally for single-phase materials for accounting for spurious strains during through surface neutron scanning experiments on coarse two-phase materials. The depth distributions of macro residual stresses were separated from the phase-specific micro residual stresses. In this regard, complementary residual stress analysis was carried out by means of incremental hole drilling. The results indicate that meaningful macro residual stress depth distributions can be determined non-destructively by means of neutron diffraction for depths starting at about 150–200 µm. Furthermore, it was shown that the correction of the instrumental surface effects, which are intrinsic for surface neutron strain scanning, through neutron ray-tracing simulation is applicable to multiphase materials and yields reliable results. However, phase-specific micro residual stresses determined by means of neutron diffraction show significant deviations to data determined by means of lab X-ray stress analysis according to the well-known sin2ψ-method.

AbstractA new failure criterion for discriminating good and bad (overheated) railroad car wheels is proposed using X-ray residual stress data. The procedure for the new discrimination criterion is based on the fluctuations of the azimuthal residual stress in the tread of the wheel. This criterion is based on a maximum likelihood statistical analysis of stress data obtained from six different wheels as determined by x-ray diffraction. Of these locations, the analysis showed the tread, and perhaps a critical point on the top of the flange, to be the most sensitive to residual stress. The variance analysis showed that fluctuations in stress a.l the most sensitive location in the tread to be related to the service history. The residual stresses showed an oscillatory pattern in the hoop direction around the wheels. Extension of the measurement technology to the use of faster residual stress measurements is proposed. To validate our x-ray residual stress data, residual stresses were also measured by hole drilling. Excellent agreement between two techniques was found.

The samples studied in this paper were performed from carbon steel plates, cladded in one of the faces with stainless steel filler metals by submerged arc welding (SAW). After cladding work, the samples were submitted to post-weld heat treatments at different conditions and afterwards stainless steel coating surfaces were milled and mechanically polished, as in the industrial application. The residual stress analysis was performed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and incremental hole-drilling methods (IHDM). The residual stresses profiles presented different in depth values in each sample, depending on the heat treatment conditions. The hole-drilling method was applied in several points of each stainless steel sample surface and the results presented similar evolution profiles. However compressive stresses increase with the increase of heat treatment temperature.
