Railcar wheels and axles belong to the most critical components in railway vehicles. The service conditions of railway vehicles have been more severe in recent years due to speed-up. Therefore, a more precise evaluation of railcar wheel life and safety has been requested. Wheel/rail contact fatigue and thermal cracks due to braking are two major mechanisms of the railcar wheel failure. One of the main sources influencing on the contact zone failure is residual stress. The residual stress in wheels formed during heat treatment in manufacturing changes in the process of braking. Thus the fatigue life of railcar wheels should be estimated by considering both thermal stress and rolling contact. Also, the effect of residual stress variation due to manufacturing process and braking process should be included in simulating contact fatigue behavior. In this paper, an evaluation procedure for the contact fatigue life of railcar wheels considering the effects of residual stresses due to heat treatment, braking and repeated contact load is proposed. And the cyclic stressstrain history for fatigue analysis is simulated by finite element analysis for the moving contact load.

AbstractNeutron diffraction was used to measure the residual stress distribution in an FeAl weld overlay on steel. It was found that the residual stresses accumulated during welding were essentially removed by the post-weld heat treatment that was applied to the specimen; most residual stresses in the specimen developed during cooling following the post-weld heat treatment. The experimental data were compared with a plasto-elastic finite element analysis. While some disagreement exists in absolute strain values, there is satisfactory agreement in strain spatial distribution between the experimental data and the finite element analysis.

Microwire made using a straightening process has high added value and has been adopted in many fields of industry. There is much active research on the straightening process. Very straight microwire can be obtained by removing the residual stress induced during the manufacturing process. Generally, the residual stress is removed or minimized through several drawing steps with heat treatment. This study used finite element analysis to calculate the residual stress during each straightening process and investigated the main reason for a change in stress.

The ultrasonic impact treatment process is widely used to improve the fatigue life of the weldments by inducing compressive residual stresses at the sub-surface. The purpose of the article is to conduct the dynamic elastic–plastic finite element analysis of multiple impacts on 5A06 aluminum alloy with different controlled parameters. The numerical model was validated by pin drop test. The changes in penetration depth, maximum compressive residual stress, and surface residual stress were obtained by analyzing the residual stress field and equivalent plastic strain. The effect of impact times, impact velocities, pin shapes, and impact angles on the residual stress was investigated so that the ultrasonic impact treatment parameters could be controlled to obtain expected residual stress distributions.

Three vessel modifications requiring heat treatment were analyzed prior to and during a planned turnaround at a refinery. One was a thick nozzle that required weld build up. This nozzle had been in hydrogen service and required bake-out to reduce the potential for cracking during the weld build up. Finite element analysis was used to study the thermal stresses involved in the bake-out. Another heat treatment studied was a PWHT of a nozzle replacement. The heat treatment band and temperature were varied with location in order to minimize cost and reduction in remaining strength of the vessel. Again, FEA was used to provide insight into the thermal stress profiles during heat treatment. The fmal heat treatment study was for inserting a new nozzle in a 1-1/4Cr-1/2Mo reactor. While this material would ordinarily require PWHT, the alteration was proposed to be installed without PWHT. Though accepted by the Jurisdiction, this nozzle installation was ultimately cancelled.
