The determination of residual stress distributions in cold-formed members is revisited
considering both experimental and numerical methodologies. Destructive, semi-destructive …

Residual stresses play a pivotal role in determining the durability and service life of the
component. Processes such as heating, machining, mechanical treatment and even the …

Sub surface residual stresses in thick multi-pass stainless steel butt welded joints were
measured by dry ring core technique. To accomplish the task of dry ring coring, special tools …

The offset between the hole and the centre of the strain-gage rosette is unavoidable,
although usually small, in the hole-drilling technique for residual stress evaluation. In this …

Selecting suitable methods for determining residual stress in laminated composites is of
great importance because each method shows different results due to its nature. In this …

Residual stresses in composite constructions are created because of non-uniform
contraction of layers during cooling from curing to ambient temperature. The aim of this study …

Like other mechanical methods used for the residual stress evaluation on a generic
structural component, the Ring-Core Method (RCM) is potentially subjected to various error …

The ring-core technique allows for the determination of non-uniform residual stresses from
the surface up to relatively higher depths as compared to the hole-drilling technique. The …

The evaluation of residual stresses using Ring-Core method requires complex analysis of
the acquired strain values. The development is based on ASTM Standard E837-08 for hole …

Estimation of the magnitude, sense and direction of the residual stress components in
mechanical parts is a key factor for its lifespan and safety prediction. The principles of the …
