Abstract

In residual stress measurements with X-rays, the interplanar spacing is often assumed to alter linearly with the orientation of the reflecting grains with respect to the stress system; the calculation of the stresses is based on this assumption when either the well-known two-tilt or sin2ψ methods are employed. But in materials with strong texture, large oscillations have sometimes been reported. A method proposed in the literature for evaluating stresses in such a situation in terms of elastic anisotropy has been tested and shown to provide a reasonable stress system; however, the texture must be known in detail, so as to calculate the effective anisotropic X-ray elastic constants. More importantly, the theory predicts that well-established standard methods (and measured or calculated isotropic X-ray elastic constants)can be used, and without knowledge of the texture,if hoo andhhh reflections are employed; this has been verified experimentally in this study. It is recommended that such reflections be employed in the future, rather than the common ones now utilized.
