Surface Residual Stresses in Dry Turning of 0.45% C Steel

Residual stresses in a surface layer determine many exploitation characteristics of machined surface. Depending on their kind and the type of applied loading, the influence of residual stresses can be negative or positive. Tensile residual stresses usually exert highly detrimental impact on several functional aspects such as strength, fatigue life, corrosion, wear resistance, etc., whereas comp...

Residual Stresses in Rotating Steel Cylinders with Composite Surface Layers

After undergoing a manufacturing process, materials may exhibit internal stresses referred to as residual stresses. In steel-composite hybrid structures, residual stresses are typically formed due to the unequal thermal behaviour of the steel and composite. Thus, knowledge of the residual stress state is important in the assessment of the external-internal loading in steel-composite hybrid stru...

experimental determination of residual stresses in multi-pass girth welding of thermo-mechanical steel pipe

in this paper, two api x70 steel pipes (with spiral seam weld) of 56 inch outside diameter and 0.780 inch wall thickness were girth welded first. next, hole drilling tests were conducted for strain measurement on the surfaces of the pipes. the values of residual stresses on the internal and external surfaces of the pipe were determined, from strain data using astm 837 standard. the experimental...

Stainless steel weld metal designed to mitigate residual stresses

There have been considerable efforts to create welding consumables which on solid state phase transformation partly compensate for the stresses which develop when a constrained weld cools to ambient temperatures. All of these efforts have focused on structural steels which are ferritic. In the present work, alloy design methods have been used to create a stainless steel welding consumable which...
