Focusing on your engineering challenge, Hill Engineering works with you on technique selection, to determine the best residual stress measurement technique to address your needs, and we tell you exactly what to expect before we start the job.
Through careful sectioning and precision inspection techniques it is possible to map complex 2D residual stress fields in a wide range of part geometries and materials.
The Contour Method was invented circa 2000, patented by Los Alamos National Laboratory, and was rapidly validated and accepted due to its unique capabilities.
Hill Engineering personnel have been active in the development of the Contour Method and now, under license, use the method to meet the needs of customers worldwide.
The Slitting Method determines residual stress as a function of depth from the surface of a part or coupon.
The method has excellent precision and repeatability and is often used in simple coupons (blocks, disks, and cylinders) for process assessment, monitoring, or quality control.
Slitting is also useful for parts that are more complex, having been used to find residual stress near a weld toe or at the root of a gear tooth.
Hill Engineering continues to develop new uses for the Slitting Method in addressing customer needs for a range of component geometries and material configurations.
Hole Drilling measures near-surface residual stress, and has been standardized in ASTM as E837.
The method can be applied to quantify the average residual stress over the depth of a drilled hole (typically 1.0 mm depth).
Or, it can be applied to determine the distribution of residual stress versus depth from the surface to a depth of half the hole diameter.
Hole Drilling is portable, and is a common method for residual stress measurement that can be applied under a variety of circumstances, including in the field.
