Review of Some Development of the Hole Drilling Method
1990
This paper contains a survey of some developments of the hole drilling method. It is mainly based on the research work carried out at the University of Palermo in the years from 1978 to 1989. The paper considers the relationship between the relaxed strain and the residual stresses for a rosette with an off-centre hole, the influence of hole eccentricity on the determination of residual stresses and of rosette calibration constants, the sensitivity of strain relaxation.
Measuring Inaccessible Residual Stresses Using Multiple Methods and Superposition
2010
The traditional contour method maps a single component of residual stress by cutting a body carefully in two and measuring the contour of the cut surface. The cut also exposes previously inaccessible regions of the body to residual stress measurement using a variety of other techniques, but the stresses have been changed by the relaxation after cutting. In this paper, it is shown that superposition of stresses measured post-cutting with results from the contour method analysis can determine the original (pre-cut) residual stresses. The general superposition theory using Bueckner’s principle is developed and limitations are discussed. The procedure is experimentally demonstrated by determini…
Effect of the indentation process on fatigue life of drilled specimens
2015
Design and manufacture of mechanical elements are strongly influenced by the evaluation of the residual stresses due to their effects on the material strength. This paper presents numerical and experimental results performed on AW 6082-T6 aluminum alloy drilled specimens when the hole is created after a bilateral indentation process. The plastic deformation induced by the indenters creates a compressive residual stress field around the hole, which persists after the drilling operation. Several numerical analysis have been carried out in ANSYS APDL explicit solver for different indentation depths and hole diameters in order to evaluate the compressive circumferential stresses, optimal proces…
NUMERICAL-EXPERIMENTAL METHOD FOR THE ANALYSIS OF RESIDUAL STRESSES IN COLD-EXPANDED HOLES
2012
Hole cold expansion is a technique widely used to improve the fatigue life of components with holes, e.g. bolted or riveted joints. As it has been demonstrated in literature by analytical, numerical and experimental analyses carried out by several authors, the compressive residual stresses introduced by the hole cold expansion have a beneficial influence on both the static and the fatigue strength of the treated component, because they reduce significantly the typical stress peaks around the hole due to stress concentration. In the literature, various analyses of the residual stresses introduced by the hole cold expansion have been performed by using several methods such as X-ray diffractio…
Measurement of residual stresses by the hole-drilling method: Influence of hole eccentricity
1979
The hole-drilling method is a semidestructive technique which allows the measurement of residual stresses. In this method, a source of error is due to the misalignment between the hole and rosette centres. This paper presents a theoretical analysis of the influence of such misalignment on the strains measured by the rosette. Formulae which give the residual stresses taking account of the hole eccentricity are derived. Finally, the errors, which affect the residual stresses when the eccentricity is neglected, are evaluated for some commercial strain-gauge rosettes especially developed for the hole-drilling method.
