One of the surface defects that arise in sheet metal working is when the part removes from the die. Since there are no external forces to make this defect, the origin of such fail is known as residual stress. Residual stress can develop in sheet metal forming due to non uniform deformation. In this paper, the workpiece is carbon steel with different volume fractions and arrangement of ferrite ...

this research investigates the effect of the post-cure time on the residual stresses in laminated composites. laminated composites were made of t300 carbon fibers and epoxy resin. the post-cure process was carried out at the constant temperature of 120 °c for 6 and 12 hours for two specimens. the slitting method was employed to determine through-thickness residual stress distribution of the com...

using cold working fastener holes is a simple life enhancement procedure that strengthens metallic components by retarding crack growth around a hole. in the present paper, the residual stress field that is induced by the hole expansion process is obtained based on different material models namely elastic perfect plastic, isotropic hardening and kinematic hardening using three-dimensional finit...

The contour method of residual stress measurement has recently been adapted to measure fractured, rather than cut specimens. The fracture contour method was capable of determining normal residual stresses acting prior to the planestrain failure of a large aluminium alloy forging, but shear residual stresses could not be measured (Prime et al., 2014, Eng. Fract. Mech., 116, 158-171). We demonstr...

Original scientific paper The joints made by fusion of materials are exposed to the influence of residual stresses induced by welding thermal cycles. Residual stresses were measured on butt welded plates made of NIOMOL 490K, before and after reparation. The objective of this paper is to compare three methods of residual stress measurement (hole-drilling method, x-ray diffraction and directional...

Although there are many simulations of residual stresses in quenched steel components there is little validation of these predictions particularly when the components are large. This is not surprising bearing in mind that the application of the through thickness measurement techniques (mechanical strain relief techniques) are problematic when the components exhibit high levels of residual stres...

In this paper, the residual stress of thermal spray coatings in gas turbine component by curvature method has been studied. The samples and shaft were coated by hard WC-12Co cermets using high velocity oxy fuel (HVOF) after preparation in same conditions. The curvature of coated samples was measured by using of coordinate measurement machine (CMM). The metallurgical and Tribological studies has...
