Compared with grinding, hard turning is a competitive manufacturing process that in many cases has substantial benefits. The most significant difference between hard turning and grinding is that hard turning may induce a relatively deep compressive residual stress. However, the interactions among the residual stress profile, applied load, and surface material, and their effects on component life in rolling contact are poorly understood. Further, contact stresses and strains are difficult to measure using the current experimental techniques due to the small-scale of the phenomena. A new simulation model of rolling contact has been developed to account for a process-induced residual stress profile. It has shown that distinct residual stress patterns hardly affect neither the magnitudes nor the locations of peak stresses and strains below the surface. However, they have a significant influence on surface deformations. The slope and depth of a compressive residual stress profile are key factors for rolling contact fatigue damage, which was substantiated by the available experimental data. Equivalent plastic strain could be a parameter to characterize the relative fatigue damage. The magnitudes of process-induced residual stress are reduced in rolling contact. The predicted residual stress pattern and magnitude agree with the test data in general. In addition, rolling contact is more sensitive to normal load and residual stress pattern than tangential load.

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.

Abstract A two-dimensional finite element model is developed to simulate the interaction between metal samples and laser-induced shock waves. Multiple laser impacts are applied at each location to increase plastically affected depth and compressive stress. The in-depth and surface residual stress profiles are analyzed at various repetition rates and spot sizes. It is found that the residual stress is not sensitive to repetition rate until it reaches a very high level. At extremely high repetition rate (100 MHz), the delay between two shock waves is even shorter than their duration, and there will be shock wave superposition. It is revealed that the interaction of metal with shock wave is significantly different, leading to a different residual stress profile. Stronger residual stress with deeper distribution will be obtained comparing with lower repetition rate cases. The effect of repetition rate at different spot sizes is also studied. It is found that with larger laser spot, the peak compressive residual stress decreases but the distribution is deeper at extremely high repetition rates.

The grinding process is often maligned by grinding burn; which refers to many unwanted effects, including residual stress formation. This paper presents an overview of the role of grinding wheel technologies in the surface response and residual stress formation of thin section Inconel 718. Using production standard equipment, conventional abrasive vitrified, and super abrasive electroplated wheel technologies were evaluated in initial comparative trials. Results revealed the dominant residual stress profiles, which manifested as measurable distortion and the thermo-mechanical impact of grinding, such as softening. Following this, a parametric study was carried out using cubic boron nitride super abrasive electroplated wheels to investigate the interaction of grinding parameters on the generated output. It was shown that at increased grinding aggressions, tensile stress regimes increased resulting in increased distortion magnitudes. The study highlights the importance of assessing residual stress formation when manipulating both wheel technologies and grinding parameters. It is envisaged that with additional assessment, a route to an engineered residual stress profile might be achieved.

Vibropeening is a surface treatment process, which combines the peening effect of introducing residual stress with the polishing effect of reducing surface roughness in one single process step. Vibropeening equipment induces vibrations into the media to impart residual compressive stresses in sub-surface layers, as well as polishing on the surface of the work piece. In addition to process parameters, such as vibration frequency, amplitude, and media mass, which are well known in literature, this paper will focus on the study of two additional parameters: immersion depth and process time. It was found that the lower-middle section of the vibratory trough produced the highest Almen deflection. Different continuous treatment times were also studied to explore the maximum introducible residual compressive stress state, and it was concluded that an optimal time range is required to achieve the best residual stress profile. The study demonstrates that different process parameters can influence the effectiveness of the vibropeening process, and that these can be potentially optimized for higher treatment capability.

Depending on the intensity of mechanical and thermal loads during hard turning, compressive and/or tensile residual stress can be obtained. However, only compressive residual stress contributes to avoid crack initiation and propagation and increase fatigue life. In order to induce compressive residual stress in the workpiece surface and subsurface, cutting edge geometry is one of the most important influence factors. Taking this into account, the influence of new customized cutting edge geometries on the parameters of a hook-shaped residual stress profile (typical of a hard turning process) is investigated and possible causes for the encountered phenomena are explained. It was found that edge geometries, which provide an increase in contact length between tool and workpiece, lead to higher compressive residual stress in the subsurface and deeper affected zones.
