Cr–Mo steel and Ni–Cr–Mo steel have higher strength and hardness than carbon steel, and they are occasionally used in harsh environments where high temperatures and high pressures are simultaneously applied in an oxidizing gas atmosphere. In general, in order to improve the fatigue strength of a material, it is important to impart compressive residual stress to the material surface to improve crack resistance and corrosion resistance. Conventionally, the most famous technique for imparting compressive residual stress by surface modification of a material is shot peening processing. However, in shot peening processing, there is concern that particles adhere to the surface of the material or the surface of the material becomes rough. Therefore, in this study high temperature and high-pressure cavitation was applied and the material surface was processed at the time of collapse. A theoretical and experimental study on a new processing method giving compressive residual stress was carried out. In the present study, we will report stress relaxation behavior due to the heat of cavitation in processed Cr–Mo steel and Ni–Cr–Mo steel.

Thermal relaxation behavior of residual stress and microstructure in the near-surface layers of dual shot peened Inconel alloy 625 was investigated by X-ray diffraction method. Residual stress on the top surface layer was significantly relaxed in the first 15 min at the elevated temperatures of 500°C, 600°C, and 700°C. However, there was still high maximum compressive residual stress in subsurface layers. The relaxation behavior of residual stress has contributed to the thermally activated process. The activation enthalpy Δ H and m were calculated according to the Zener–Wert–Avrami method, the values of which were 1.59 eV and 0.4934, respectively. Microstructural evaluation revealed that it was slightly changed in the near-surface layers after various isothermal treatments. Accordingly, high level of compressive residual stress and dislocation density resulted in the retained mechanical properties of dual shot peened Inconel 625, which was discussed based on the relaxation of microstructure and microhardness.

Fiber prestressing during matrix curing can significantly improve the mechanical properties of fiber-reinforced polymer composites. One primary reason behind this improvement is the generated compressive residual stress within the cured matrix, which impedes cracks initiation and propagation. However, the prestressing force might diminish progressively with time due to the creep of the compressed matrix and the relaxation of the tensioned fiber. As a result, the initial compressive residual stress and the acquired improvement in mechanical properties are prone to decline over time. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate the mechanical properties of the prestressed composites as time proceeds. This study monitors the change in the tensile and flexural properties of unidirectional prestressed glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites over a period of 12 months after manufacturing. The composites were prepared using three different fiber volume fractions 25%, 30%, and 40%. The results of mechanical testing showed that the prestressed composites acquired an initial increase up to 29% in the tensile properties and up to 32% in the flexural properties compared to the non-prestressed counterparts. Throughout the 12 months of study, the initial increase in both tensile and flexural strength showed a progressive reduction. The loss ratio of the initial increase was observed to be inversely proportional to the fiber volume fraction. For the prestressed composites fabricated with 25%, 30%, and 40% fiber volume fraction, the initial increase in tensile and flexural strength dropped by 29%, 25%, and 17%, respectively and by 34%, 26%, and 21%, respectively at the end of the study. Approximately 50% of the total loss took place over the first month after the manufacture, while after the sixth month, the reduction in mechanical properties became insignificant. Tensile modulus started to show a very slight reduction after the fourth/sixth month, while the flexural modulus reduction was observed from the beginning. Although the prestressed composites displayed time-dependent losses, their long-term mechanical properties still outperformed the non-prestressed counterparts.

Yttria-stabilized zirconia (3Y-TZP) containing 0.25% Al2O3, which is resistant to low temperature degradation (LTD), was aged for 10 h at 130–220 °C in air. The aged specimens were subsequently indented at loads ranging from 9.8 to 490 N using a Vickers indenter. The influence of preaging temperature on the biaxial strength of the specimens was investigated to elucidate the relationship between the extent of LTD and the strength of zirconia restorations that underwent LTD. The indented strength of the specimens increased as the preaging temperature was increased higher than 160 °C, which was accompanied by extensive t-ZrO2 (t) to m-ZrO2 (m) and c-ZrO2 (c) to r-ZrO2 (r) phase transformations. The influence of preaging temperature on the indented strength was rationalized by the residual stresses raised by the t→m transformation and the reversal of tensile residual stress on the aged specimen surface due to the indentation. The results suggested that the longevity of restorations would not be deteriorated if the aged restorations retain compressive residual stress on the surface, which corresponds to the extent of t→m phase transformation less than 52% in ambient environment.

The effects of heat treatment on distortion, residual stress, and retained austenite were compared for case-carburized 4320 steel, in both the austempered and quench-and-tempered condition. Navy C-ring samples were used to quantify both size and shape distortions, as well as residual stress. The austempering heat treatment produced less distortion and a higher surface residual stress. Both hoop and axial stresses were measured; the difference between them was less than seven percent in all cases. Depth profiles were obtained for residual stress and retained austenite from representative C-ring samples for the austempered and quench-and-tempered heat treatment conditions. Austempering maintained a compressive residual stress to greater depths than quench-and-tempering. Quench-and-tempering also resulted in lower retained austenite amounts immediately beneath the surface. However, for both heat treatments, the retained austenite content was approximately one percent at depths greater than 0.5 mm.
