Abstract:
This paper briefly describes the theory and methods of x-ray residual stress measurements. Residual stresses can be defined as the stresses which remain in a material in the absence of any external forces. There are many stress determination methods. Some of those methods are destructive and some are nondestructive. X-ray residual stress measurement is considered as a nondestructive method. X-ray diffraction together with the other diffraction techniques of residual stress measurement uses the distance between crystallographic planes as a strain gage. The deformations cause changes in the spac

Abstract:
A new failure criterion for discriminating good and bad (overheated) railroad car wheels is proposed. This criterion can replace the conventional “four inch" discoloration rule. The procedure for the new discrimination criterion is based on the fluctuations of the azimuthal residual stress in the tread of the wheel. This criterion is based on a maximum likelihood statistical analysis of data obtained from six different wheels as deterrmined by x-ray diffraction. Of these locations, the analysis showed the tread, and perhaps a critical point on the top of the flange, to be the most sensitive to

Abstract:
Photoelasticity is an optical technique that measures the difference of the principal stresses plus the principal stress direction. A complementary technique is thermoelasticity which measures the sum of the principal stresses. Combining these two full-field, non-contact nondestructive evaluation techniques allows the individual stress components to be measured. One of the main difficulties in merging these two measurement systems is in identifying an appropriate surface coating. Thermoelasticity demands a highly emissive surface, while photoelasticity requires a thick, stress-birefringent, tr

Abstract:
Residual stresses are “locked-in” within a material, and exist without any external loads. Such stresses are developed during most common manufacturing processes, for example welding, cold working and grinding. These “hidden” stresses can be quite large, and can have profound effects on engineering properties, notably fatigue life and dimensional stability. To obtain reliable and accurate residual stress measurements for uniform and non-uniform stress states, a novel and practical method using crossing-slitting and ESPI is presented here.

The hole-drilling method for measuring residual stresses is generally applied to two extreme cases. In the “thick” case, the specimen depth is very large compared with the hole depth. The far boundary is then sufficiently distant that its effect can be neglected. In the “thin” case, the specimen has the form of a thin plate through which the hole penetrates fully. The thin plate creates plane-stress conditions and it is usually assumed that the associated residual stresses are uniform through the plate thickness.

The contour method has emerged as a promising technique for residual stress measurement in relatively large, thick and complex engineering components.

The method is based on the theory of elasticity in that the stress relaxation during test specimen cutting is assumed to be entirely elastic. However, when measuring residual stresses of magnitude ap
