The Nature of Residual Stress and Its Measurement.

Abstract

The origins of residual stress and changes during fatigue are discussed. A new mechanism for fading is proposed. Practical (destructive and non-destructive) methods for measuring this stress are critically reviewed. Each technique has major problems requiring further study, but acoustic, magnetic and x-ray methods are all poised for more widespread use. (Author)
