Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

During the manufacture of metallic components, residual stress is inevitably generated, which has a major influence on the structural integrity and service performance of products. Whether using traditional welding/assembly/forming processes or recently developed additive manufacturing processes, residual stress has always been a key factor that affects the reliability of mechanical structures.

The objective of this Special Issue is to review recent contributions to the technical and scientific advancements and challenges in residual stress analysis methods. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, experimental, theoretical and simulation analyses of residual stress.

Authors are invited to publish the results of their research on all of these topics, which involve advancements that will broaden the field of stress analysis. Papers could concern the microstructures and/or atypical geometries characterized or in the development of specific and adaptive methodologies for residual stress analysis in metallic materials.

This work explores the advantages and disadvantages of a methodology using high-energy X-ray diffraction to determine residual stresses in multilayer structures produced by atmospheric plasma spraying. These structures comprise a titanium alloy substrate (Ti64), a bonding layer (Ni-Al), and an abrasive coating (Al2O3). This study focuses on analyzing the residual stress gradients within these layers. The presented method is used to determine stresses across the entire thickness of multilayer structures. Experiments were carried out using a high-energy rectangular beam, operating in transmission mode, on the cross-section of the sample. The results indicate variable stresses throughout the depth of the sample, particularly near the layer interfaces. The semi-automatic methodology presented here enables us to follow stress evolution within the different layers, providing indications of the load transfer between them and at their interfaces. The sin2ψ method was used to analyze the diffraction data and to determine the stresses in each phase along the sample depth. However, interpreting results near the interfaces is complex due to the geometric and chemical effects. We present a discussion of the main advantages and disadvantages of the methodology for this kind of industrial sample. Full article

The sin²ψ method is the general method for analyzing X-ray diffraction stress measurements. This method relies on the estimation of a parameter known as 12S2hkl, which is generally considered as a material constant. However, various studies have shown that this parameter can be affected by plastic deformation leading to proportional uncertainties in the estimation of stresses. In this paper, in situ X-ray diffraction measurements are performed during a tensile test with unloads on a low-carbon high-strength steel. The calibrated 12S2hkl parameter varies from 3.5×106 MPa−1 to 5.5 ×106 Mpa−1, depending on the surface condition and on the plastic strain state, leading to a maximum error on the stress level of 40% compared to reference handbook values. The results also show that plastic strain is responsible for 6 to 14% of the variation, depending on the initial surface sample condition. A method is then proposed to correct this variation based on the fit of the 12S2hkl evolution with respect to the peak diffraction width, the latter being an indication of the plasticity state. It is shown that the proposed methodology improves the applied stress increment prediction, although the absolute stress value still depends on pseudo-macrostresses that also vary with plastic strain.

In this paper, a micromechanical model was developed to predict the residual stress–strain state that is generated around nodules of a ferritic ductile cast iron during solidification. A finite element analysis was performed on a reference volume element of the material to analyze the local strain development, having modeled both matrix and nodule as deformable bodies in contact. The behavior of the nodule was assumed linear–elastic because of the low stresses to which it is subjected during cooling. On the other hand, elasto-plastic viscous behavior was considered for the matrix, considering both the primary and secondary creep regimes. To make up for the lack of information on the physical–thermomechanical properties of the constituents, the available literature data were integrated with the results obtained from the CALPHAD methodology applied to both cast iron and the steel that constitutes its matrix. The micromechanical model was validated by comparing the resulting residual strains with experimental data available in the literature for a ferritic ductile cast iron. Then, it was used for analyzing the correlation between the solidification history and the mechanical response of cast iron in terms of the uniaxial stress–strain curve. Full article
