In common with many engineering applications the introduction of compressive surface stresses plays an important role in the performance of roller bearings. Since the introduced stress profiles depend on the treatment method and the necessary balancing tensile stresses may have unexpected consequences, it is necessary to quantify the stresses throughout the bearing. Today, most characterization...

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...

the effects of physical, thermal and mechanical parameters on curing microthermal residual stresses are studied, based on the energy method, to present a theoretical solution for prediction of residual stress felds. a fnite element analysis is developed to compare the theoretical and numerical results together. there is found to be a good agreement between the results of the two methods. howeve...

Thermally sprayed coatings are intrinsically associated with residual stresses in the deposits. These stresses are varied in nature and magnitude, and have a pronounced effect on the mechanical behavior of the system. In the current study, WC-12Co coatings were deposited using HVOF thermal spraying. The sin2ψ method was used to evaluate the through thickness residual stress by means ...

in this study, a new method for joining aluminum tubes in subsurface structures using steel converting and aluminum welding are presented and reviewed. but near the weld area is under high thermal cycle and will cause residual stresses in heat affected zone. therefore for assessment of proposed connection from the perspective of residual stress by using the finite element method welding of tube...

The residual stresses of the thin-walled injection molding are investigated in this study. It was realized that the behavior of residual stresses in injection molding parts was affected by different process conditions such as melt temperature, mold temperature, packing pressure and filling time. The layer removal method was used to measure the residual stresses at a thin-walled test sample by a...
