The accurate determination of residual stresses has a crucial role in understanding the
complex interactions between microstructure, mechanical state, mode (s) of failure, and …

Residual stress refers to self-equilibrating stress present within materials, with the potential
to significantly affect manufacturing processes and performance. Therefore, accurately and …

This paper presents a systematic investigation of microstructure, mechanical properties and
residual stress distribution of explosion-welded Al/steel plates. It was found that vortexes …

Laser cladding is a cutting-edge technology widely used in additive manufacturing and
surface modification. This process entails rapid melting and solidification driven by laser …

Determining residual stresses in thin-walled pipes is challenging. They are potentially
difficult targets for simulation, because they may not behave as simple axisymmetric …

Residual stress is a severe problem concerning about the service life and the safety of
welded structures, which is affected by the assembling and restraint conditions. In this study …

To investigate the residual stress distribution in the zirconium/titanium/steel tri-metal
explosively welded composite plates after welding a cover plate and cutting with various …

An engineering-scale stainless steel pipe girth weld was manufactured and the ultrasonic
impact treatment (UIT) was applied to treat the local region of the girth weld. The as-welded …

The use of post-processing heat treatments is often considered a necessary approach to
relax high-magnitude residual stresses (RS) formed during the layerwise additive …

The stress distributions in a thick welded specimen with a partial repair weld were measured
with the three-cut contour method. The longitudinal stress maps in the original weld and the …
