Abstract
Residual stresses affect mechanical properties of materials and products, it is essential to estimate them practically in order to establish acceptable limits. Knowledge of the development of residual stresses in components at the various production stages- extrusion, rolling, machining, welding and heat treating-can be used to improve product reliability and performance. This short article gives an example relevant to the power industry using ANSTO's 'Kowari' neutron strain scanner. © 2012 Weld Australia
