Ultrasonic peening treatment (UPT) has been proved to be an effective way of improving residual stresses distribution in weld structures. Thus, it shows a great potential in stress modification for metal parts fabricated by additive manufacturing technology. In this paper, an investigation into the ultrasonic treatment process of AlSi10Mg specimens fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) process was conducted by means of experimental and numerical simulation. The specimens were prepared using a SLM machine, and UPT on their top surface was carried out. The residual stresses were measured with an X-ray stress diffraction device before and after UPT. Meanwhile, a finite element simulation method for analyzing the influence of UPT on the residual stress field of specimens was proposed and validated by experiments. Firstly, the thermal mechanical coupling numerical simulation of the SLM process of the specimen was carried out in order to obtain the residual stress distribution in the as-fabricated specimen. Then, the transient dynamic finite element simulation model of the UPT process of the specimen was established, and the UPT effect analysis was implemented. In the UPT simulation, the residual stress was applied as a pre-stress on the specimen, and the specimen’s material mechanical property was described by the Johnson–Cook model, whose parameters were determined by Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) experiment. The residual stress distribution before and after UPT predicted by the finite element model agree well with the measurement results. This paper concludes with a discussion of the effects of ultrasonic peening time, as well as the frequency and amplitude of the peening needle on residual stress.

High strength aluminum alloys have been widely used in aviation manufacturing due to their favorable combination of intensity, stress corrosion resistance and toughness. However, the research and control of residual stress distribution in aluminum components have become a key issue to be solved during the heat treatment and subsequent processes. By means of the analysis of micro-indentation method and ANSYS finite element method, the residual stress distribution in 2A02 aluminum components after water quenching were systematically investigated, mainly considering two factors of the symmetry of structure and the variation of surface constraint. This study may give great help to the technology of relieving forgings residual stress of two alloys.The results of micro-indentation method show that the absolute value of the residual stress within the sample tends to decrease as the condition of constraint increase at the location of the same thickness; the absolute value of the surface residual stress also tends to decrease as the thickness of the sample increase with the same constraint conditions. The tested results by micro-indentation method are in consistent with the results of finite element simulation to a great extent.The results of finite element simulation are as follows: for these two aluminum alloy, the stress field distribution during the process of quenching is mainly influenced by the thickness of the samples. In general, at the initial stage of the quenching process, the stress state at the components surface are controlled by tensile stress in the direction of both thickness and width, while the residual stress within the samples is dominated by compressive stress; at the end of the quenching process, the stress field distribution just turn to the opposite. These results are in great agreement with the corresponding results of the indentation method.

New equations for calculating residual stress distribution are derived from the theory of elasticity for tubes. The initial distribution of the stresses including the shearing stress is computed from longitudinal distributions of residual stresses measured by the X-ray methods at the surface after removal of successive concentric layers of material. For example, the residual stresses of a steel tube quenched in water were measured by the X-ray diffraction method. The new method was also applied to a short tube with hypothetical residual stress distribution. An alternative finite element analysis was made for a verification. The residual stresses computed by finite element modeling agreed well with the hypothetical residual stresses measured. This shows that good results can be expected from the new method. The equations can also be used for bars by simple modification.

Simple Method

A simple method for measuring residual stresses in a plate is described. In this method residual stresses are evaluated using a fracture mechanics approach, that is, the strains or displacements measured at a point on the edge of a plate as a crack is introduced and extended from the edge are used to deduce the state of stresses that existed in the uncracked plate. Through finite element analyses and experiments this method is shown to be valid and effective for measuring the two-dimensional residual stress distribution of a welded plate.

Residual stresses are often imposed on the end-product due to mechanical and thermal loading during the machining process, influencing the distortion and fatigue life. This paper proposed an original semi-empirical method to predict the residual stress distribution along the depth direction. In the statistical model of the method, the bimodal Gaussian function was innovatively used to fit Inconel 718 alloy residual stress profiles obtained from the finite element model, achieving a great fit precision from 89.0% to 99.6%. The coefficients of the bimodal Gaussian function were regressed with cutting parameters by the random forest algorithm. The regression precision was controlled between 80% and 85% to prevent overfitting. Experiments, compromising cylindrical turning and residual stress measurements, were conducted to modify the finite element results. The finite element results were convincing after the experiment modification, ensuring the rationality of the statistical model. It turns out that predicted residual stresses are consistent with simulations and predicted data points are within the range of error bars. The max error of predicted surface residual stress (SRS) is 113.156 MPa, while the min error is 23.047 MPa. As for the maximum compressive residual stress (MCRS), the max error is 93.025 MPa, and the min error is 22.233 MPa. Considering the large residual stress value of Inconel 718, the predicted error is acceptable. According to the semi-empirical model, the influence of cutting parameters on the residual stress distribution was investigated. It shows that the cutting speed influences circumferential and axial MCRS, circumferential and axial depth of settling significantly, and thus has the most considerable influence on the residual stress distribution. Meanwhile, the depth of cut has the least impact because it only affects axial MCRS and axial depth of settling significantly.

The finite element simulation analysis was used to determine the weak parts of the fatigue life of a double lap structure, for which the cold expansion finite element model was established. The effect of the cold expansion of slotted bushings on the residual stress distribution around the hole of the double lap structure under different interferences was deeply studied, and the optimal interference amount was determined to be 2.5%. The effect of reaming on the residual stress distribution around the hole was studied. The residual stress distribution around the edge of the hole under actual loading conditions before and after cold expansion was compared to provide a theoretical analysis basis for extending the fatigue life of the specimen after cold expansion. The China-made and free- forged 7A85 aluminum alloy specimen was used to obtain the fatigue life and DFR value of the double lap structure after ordinary hole making and the cold expansion of slotted bushing. The results show that the fatigue life under 95% confidence and 95% reliability after cold expansion strengthening increases by about 49% and that the tested DFR value increases by about 9.8%.

The main objective of this paper is to investigate the quality and integrity of the surface produced during high speed hard machining (HSHM) of D2 tool steel in its hardened state (60–62 HRc). Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride (PCBN) tools are used in this study. The results obtained from the micro-graphical analysis of the surface produced are presented in Part 1 of this paper. In Part 2 micro-hardness and residual stress analyses are presented. Microhardness measurements are conducted beneath the machined surface. X-ray diffraction analysis is performed to obtain the residual stress distribution beneath the surface. Analytically, a 3-D thermo-elasto-plastic finite element model is developed to predict the residual stresses induced in the workpiece surface. In the model the cutting zone is specified based on the tool condition (i.e., sharp or worn). The finite element analysis demonstrates the significant effect of the heat generated during cutting on the residual stress distribution. The results illustrate the possibility of minimizing the high tensile residual stresses produced in the workpiece surface, by selecting the appropriate depth of cut. A good correlation between the analytical and predicted residual stress is obtained. [S1087-1357(00)00804-2]

Abstract This study investigates and evaluates the welding residual stresses and deformations in the dissimilar material MSSS metals in order to verify the clamping effect on the residual stresses and deformations and entails comparison with the finite element simulation, the critically reflected longitudinal ultrasonic stress measurement and the hole-drilling residual stresses in a Butt-welded plate courtesy of Javadi et al [1]. The angular shrinkage measurement and vertical displacement were used to achieve this objective. The outcome of the study proved that the measurement of residual stress using protractor is an effective way of differentiating the influence of clamps on the longitudinal stresses.

Stiffened panels are usually the basic structural building blocks of airplanes, vessels and other structures with high requirements of strength-to-weight ratio. They typically consist of a plate with equally spaced longitudinal stiffeners on one side, often with intermediate transverse stiffeners. Large aeronautical and naval parts are primarily designed based on their longitudinal compressive strength. The structural stability of such thin-walled structures, when subjected to compressive loads, is highly dependent on the buckling strength of the structure as a whole and of each structural member. In the present work, a number of modelling and numerical calculations, based on the Finite Element Method (FEM), is carried out in order to predict the ultimate load level when stiffened panels are subjected to compressive solicitations. The simulation models account not only for the elasto-plastic nonlinear behaviour, but also for the residual stresses, material properties modifications and geometrical distortions that arise from Friction Stir Welding (FSW) operations. To construct the model considering residual stresses, their distribution in FSW butt joints are obtained by means of a numerical-experimental procedure, namely the contour method, which allows for the evaluation of the normal residual stress distribution on a specimen section. FSW samples have been sectioned orthogonally to the welding line by wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM). Displacements of the relaxed surfaces are then recorded using a Coordinate Measuring Machine and processed in a MATLAB environment. Finally, the residual stress distribution is evaluated by means of an elastic FE model of the cut sample, using the measured and digitalized out-of-plane displacements as input nodal boundary conditions. With these considerations, the main goal of the present work will then be related to the evaluation of the effect of FSW operations, in the ultimate load of stiffened panels with complex cross-section shapes, by means of realist numerical simulation models.

Abstract In the present numerical study, the residual stresses generated during the shot peening process were evaluated using the finite element method. The influence of shot velocity on the residual stress distribution due to the indentation of a rigid shot over the target plate of alloy steel was studied. The finite element package ABAQUS 6.20 is used for simulating the shot peening process considering the target plate to be deformable. A parametric study was performed by introducing strain hardening rate as H1 = 800 MPa, keeping the dimension of target plate same with variation in shot velocity 20, 50, 75, 100, 125, and 150 m/s to check the behavior of residual stress distribution. As the indentation takes place over the metallic target plate, elastic-plastic deformation was observed. The indentation of the shot with a different velocity range causes the difference in the depth and size of the dent and induces the compressive residual stress. For perfectly plastic and the strain hardened material, the residual stress contour was simulated. The simulated results for strain hardened material show the significant change in the compressive residual stress in the sub-surface region of the target plate. It is evident from the results that the shot velocity has a significant effect on the residual stress distribution. The maximum compressive residual stress is achieved when the shot is indented at a velocity of 125 m/s.
