Validation of Hole-Drilling Residual Stress Measurements in Workpieces of Various Thickness

A recent revision to the ASTM E837 standard for near-surface residual stress measurement by the hole-drilling method describes a new thickness-dependent stress calculation procedure applicable to “thin” and “intermediate” workpieces for which strain versus depth response depends on workpiece thickness. This new calculation procedure differs from that of the prior standard, which applies only to thick workpieces with strain versus depth response independent of thickness. Herein we assess the new calculation procedures by performing hole-drilling residual stress measurements in samples with a range of thickness. Near-surface residual stress is measured in a thick aluminum plate containing near-surface residual stress from a uniform shot peening treatment, and in samples of different thickness removed from the plate at the peened surface. A finite element (FE) model is used to assess consistency between measured residual stress across the range of sample thickness. Measured residual stress varies with sample thickness, with thinner samples exhibiting smaller near-surface compressive stress and a larger gradient of subsurface stress. These trends are consistent with both observed bending (curvature) of the removed samples and the trend in FE-calculated expected residual stress. The measured and expected residual stresses are in good agreement for samples of intermediate thickness, but the agreement decreases with sample thickness. Measured residual stress is invariant with gage circle diameter. The new thickness-dependent stress calculation procedure for hole-drilling provides meaningful improvement compared to thick-workpiece calculations.
