Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research on this contract was initiated in July 1982 in order to develop the method of the temperature dependence of ultrasonic velocity for the nondestructive evaluation of bulk residual stresses. Results previously obtained on aluminum, copper and steel have shown that this method offers a promising possibility for measurements of bulk stresses in these materials. The results also indicate that the method is less sensitive to variations caused by alloy composition and perhaps texture. Two objectives have been set for the research to be performed during the first year of this program. The first objective is to establish experimental relationships between the temperature dependence of ultrasonic velocity and stress applied in a direction parallel to and perpendicular to that of wave propagation. These relationships are to represent the variations of the temperature dependence when the stresses are applied in tension as well as in compression.

Download or read book Measurement of Residual and Applied Stress Using Neutron Diffraction written by M.T. Hutchings and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 568 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The accurate, absolute, and non-destructive measurement of residual stress fields within metallic, ceramic, and composite engineering components has been one of the major problems facing engineers for many years, and so the extension of X-ray methods to the use of neutrons represents a major advance. The technique utilizes the unique penetrating power of the neutron into most engineering materials, combined with the sensitivity of diffraction, to measure the separation of lattice planes within grains of polycrystalline engineering materials, thus providing an internal strain gauge. The strain is then converted to stress using calibrated elastic constants. It was just over ten years ago that the initial neutron diffraction measurements of residual stress were carried out, and during the ensuing decade measurements have commenced at most steady state reactors and pulsed sources around the world. So swift has been the development of the field that, in addition to fundamental scientific studies, commercial measurements have been made on industrial components for several years now. The use of neutrons is ideally suited to the determination of triaxial macrostress tensors, macrostress gradients, and microstresses in composites and multiphase alloys as well as deformed, plastically anisotropic metals and alloys. To date, it has been used to investigate welded and heat-treated industrial components, to characterize composites, to study the response of material under applied loads, to calibrate more portable methods such as ultrasonics, and to verify computer modelling calculations of residual and applied stress.

Book excerpt: This manual has been assembled as a ready reference source for the engineer who must measure residual stresses. Although the literature has abundant information on the individual methods of residual stress measurement, this manual is unique in that most of the useful methods have been selected, described, classified, and compared.Methods of measuring residual stress may be classified as mechanical, physical, or chemical. Mechanical methods that are most widely used involve the machining of the part to release the residual stresses. These methods are considered in detail and occupy the bulk of this manual.Of the physical methods, x-ray diffraction has many advantages in solving some residual stress problems. One of the major advantages is that it is completely nondestructive if only surface residual stresses are desired. This method is briefly described and its limitations discussed so that the investigator may choose this method if it fulfills his needs. The method and the necessary techniques have been covered in detail in Ref. 1.Of the chemical methods, the stress corrosion cracking technique seems to be the most useful. This cracking is known to be dependent upon the surface tensile stress level. At present it is only a qualitative measure of the stress, but perhaps at some future date, quantitative chemical methods may be developed.To make residual stress measurements, the engineer must: 1Select the most appropriate method. 2Completely familiarize himself with the theory behind the method chosen. 3Learn the techniques of measurement used by previous investigators.Note that the word "method" is reserved to mean the individual category of stress analysis, and that "technique" applies to the experimental procedure.The choice of the method depends to a large extent upon the geometry of the specimen, the precision desired, the type and location of the stress it is desired to measure, and the equipment available. The numerous mechanical methods available are classified into four groups. These are: the parting-out method, the layer removal method, the boring and turning method, and the hole drilling method. The nonmechanical x-ray method is briefly discussed here for comparison.Once the method has been selected, measurements should not be taken and their values blindly substituted into equations. Each term in the expressions relating the deformation to the residual stress should be completely understood and the sign convention used for these terms should be well known. For this reason, a derivation for each method has been included with the necessary assumptions and limitations. Following a study of these equations, it may be decided whether some automatic or computer technique should be used. In some instances in which a large number of specimens are to be analyzed, the computer technique offers obvious advantages. At this point, it is also necessary to determine the precision with which the stresses are to be determined. This, of course, can be related directly to the precision used in the measurement of the deformation changes and the original dimensions of the specimen itself.The correct choice of the many and varied techniques for measuring dimensional changes used in the determination of residual stress is extremely important if accurate and reproducible data are to be obtained. Machining stress introduced in dissecting must not be larger or more significant than the stress that is to be measured. The techniques used to remove material are numerous, and some of the better currently used techniques are considered. The specific techniques associated with any particular method are included and special fixtures and procedures are described and sample calculations are given.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 1818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume (parts 1 and 2) are contained the edited papers presented at the annual Review of Progress in Quantitative NDE held at the University of California, San Diego, August 1-6, 1982. This Review, possibly the most comprehensive annual symposium emphasizing both ongoing research and applications in quantitative NDE, was sponsored by the Center for Advanced NDE at the Ames Laboratory of the U. S. Department of Energy in cooperation with the Materials Laboratory of the Air Force Wright Aeronautical Laboratories and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. Over 300 attendees representing various government agencies and the industrial and university communities participated in the technical presentations, poster sessions, and discussions. The symposium benefited from the insight of two keynote speak ers, Dr. Harris Burte of the Materials Laboratory, AFWAL, and Mr. Ward Rummel of the Martin Marietta Corporation, who presented complementary messages. Dr. Burte pointed out the need to identify "windows" to serve as guides for focusing NDE research. The "window" concept may be thought of as an opportunity for the application of NDE technology to an important problem and, through this application, to identify knowledge gaps which must be filled by generic research. This concept simultaneously provides a mechanism for the solution of a direct ap plication problem and a set of strong guidelines for generic research directions. Mr. Rummel called attention to the value of "lessons learned" from var.
