A novel analytical approach has been developed to assess the plasticity induced error in residual stress (RS) distributions measured by the contour method (CM) for which... -
Residual stress characterisation of flow formed Super CMV steel tubes for pot...
The purpose of the present work is to measure residual stresses at large depths from the surface of flow formed tubes made of a Super CMV steel that has significantly higher... -
Residual strain measurements in a monocrystalline nickel-based superalloy tur...
Rafted microstructure has been observed in specific areas of a fully heat-treated blade at the end of the manufacturing process. The solution heat-treated blade is believed to... -
Residual stresses in bonded crack retarders containing fasteners
Bonded crack retarders are a novel technology for providing improved damage tolerance in aerospace structures. They can be applied either where mechanical fastening is being... -
Reduced Residual Stresses In Multipass Welds Using Low Transformation Tempera...
The aim of this experiment is to characterise the residual stresses that evolve as a multiple pass weld is built up, while exploiting transformation plasticity due to specially... -
Measurement of Residual Strains/Stresses in Welded Linepipes for Deep-sea Oil...
The demand for deep-sea oil and gas supply is increasing due to the higher demand on energy and security of energy supply. The pipelines for transporting oil and gas are... -
Characterising PWHT Residual Stresses in Dissimilar Metal Welds (P92/In625).
Welds in safety critical applications are subject to structural integrity assessments where residual stress plays a key part. Because residual stress predictions are unreliable,... -
