Residual stresses produced by cold drawing are an undesirable effect of the non-uniform plastic strain distribution generated during the conforming process used for obtaining prestressing steel wires. Among the diverse parameters of the process influencing the residual stress generation, one of the most relevant is the geometry of the drawing die and, in particular, the inlet die angle. Wires drawn with die angles as low as possible will exhibit a lower and more homogeneous plastic strain state and, therefore, a smaller and more uniform residual stress state. Thus, the hydrogen embrittlement (HE) susceptibility of such wires is also lower, thereby enlarging the life in service of these components. In this paper an innovative design of the drawing die is proposed using two consecutive angles (i.e.,varying die angle) for reducing the residual stress-strain state in the cold drawn wires and, consequently, for improving the resistance to HE of prestressing steel wires.

Residual stress and strain states, produced during cold drawing, play a key role in hydrogen embrittlement (HE) of prestressing steel wires, because of hydrogen accumulation in certain places of the material is affected by stress and strains fields. Taking into account that thedrawingstraining path directly affectsbothresidual stress and plastic strain distribution, the aim of the present paper is to clarify the influence of drawing straining path in the residual state and, consequently, its influence on the HE process of prestressing steel wires.

The prediction of residual stress relaxation is essential to assess the safety of welded components. This paper aims to study the influence of various effective parameters on residual stress relaxation under cyclic loading. In this regard, a 3D finite element modeling is performed to determine the residual stress in welded aluminum plates. The accuracy of this analysis is verified through experiment. To study the plasticity effect on stress relaxation, two plasticity models are implemented: perfect plasticity and combined isotropic-kinematic hardening. Hence, cyclic plasticity characterization of the material is specified by low cycle fatigue tests. It is found that the perfect plasticity leads to greater stress relaxation. In order to propose an accurate model to compute the residual stress relaxation, the Taguchi L18 array with four 3-level factors and one 6-level is employed. Using statistical analysis, the order of factors based on their effect on stress relaxation is determined as mean stress, stress amplitude, initial residual stress, and number of cycles. In addition, the stress relaxation increases with an increase in mean stress and stress amplitude.
