Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of residual stress diffraction testing, and in particular to a method for measuring the residual stress of a complex material using diffraction technology. Technical Background

[0002] With the increasing demand for lightweight and functional structures in the aerospace and military industries, the use of advanced composite materials in large aircraft, spacecraft, satellites, rockets, and missiles has continued to increase, gradually expanding from non-load-bearing components to primary load-bearing components. For example, satellite bearing cylinders are now entirely made of composite materials; solid rocket engines are also largely composite. The A380, a superjumbo, comprises 25% of its structural weight in composite materials. Its major carbon fiber composite components include the center wing box, wing ribs, fuselage skin panels, aft fuselage section, tail section, floor beams, rear pressure frame, and vertical stabilizer. The Boeing 787's use of composite materials has attracted even greater attention. Composite materials account for 50% of its structural weight. The fuselage and wings utilize carbon fiber-reinforced laminates instead of aluminum alloys, while the engine nacelles, horizontal and vertical stabilizers, rudders, and wingtips utilize carbon fiber-reinforced sandwich panels. The US F-22, a fourth-generation fighter jet, also utilizes composite materials for 25% of its structural weight. The Airbus A40M large military transport aircraft also makes extensive use of composite materials in its manufacturing, enabling it to boast a payload exceeding that of any existing large transport aircraft. Therefore, the use of composite materials and structures has been an inevitable and realistic trend in the development of aerospace, military industry and other fields over the past few decades.

[0003] Residual stress in materials and their components significantly impacts their fatigue strength, corrosion resistance, dimensional stability, and service life. This impacts numerous industries, including machinery manufacturing, water conservancy, electric power, aerospace, military, nuclear industry, petrochemicals, metallurgy, and transportation. For example, significant residual stress in the beam frames of large aircraft can severely impact component processing accuracy and lead to serious consequences such as cracking. Internal residual stresses generated during the manufacturing of turbine disks and blades, as well as their coatings, in aircraft engines operating at extremely high temperatures can cause component deformation during operation, impacting gas turbine performance and efficiency, and even leading to premature failure. In high-speed rail train bodies, significant residual stresses are present when welding high-strength aluminum alloy beams to the train cars. This can lead to significant stress corrosion cracking during operation, significantly impacting the train's service life. Therefore, accurately characterizing the internal stress conditions of these components under extreme manufacturing and service conditions is a crucial prerequisite for developing high-end components and evaluating their performance. Furthermore, further analysis of the material's underlying stress distribution, load transfer, and stress concentration is crucial for the development of new materials and the manufacture of new components.

[0004] There are many methods for stress measurement, including stress release method, magnetic method, ultrasonic method and diffraction method. Most of the above engineering materials are complex phase materials. The current diffraction method for measuring stress of complex phase materials is to measure the strain of the two phases separately and then multiply it by the corresponding diffraction elastic constant and volume fraction weighted. The specific expression is

[0005] (1)

[0006] In the formula represents the stress of the complex material, 、 and represent the volume fraction of the matrix phase, diffraction elastic constant, and strain, respectively; 、 and where represents the volume fraction, diffraction elastic constant, and strain of the second phase, respectively. This method, on the one hand, fails to consider the interaction between the two phases of the composite material, affecting the accuracy of the stress calculation. On the other hand, when the second phase content in the composite material is low or the diffraction peak corresponding to the second phase is weak, the second phase strain cannot be accurately measured, thus restricting the precise measurement and calculation of stress and strain in the composite material. Summary of the Invention

[0007] Based on the above problems, the present invention provides a new method for measuring the residual stress of complex phase materials using the diffraction method. The stress of the entire material can be obtained by simply measuring the strain of the matrix phase. The specific expression is

[0008] (2)

[0009] In the formula represents the stress of the complex material, and represent the diffraction elastic constant and strain of the “new” crystal plane of the matrix phase (hkl), respectively.

[0010] In the present invention It can be expressed as ( ),Right now ( )and are the diffraction elastic constants and strains of the “new” crystal plane of the matrix phase (hkl). The corresponding elastic constitutive equation is:

[0011] (2-1)

[0012] In the formula represents the measured corresponding force, represents the (hkl) crystal plane diffraction elastic constant, Represents the strain in different directions of the (hkl) crystal plane. When i=j, it represents the principal strain, and i≠j represents the combined strain.

[0013] This paper uses micromechanics theory and a self-consistent method to calculate the effect of the second phase on the stress state of the matrix phase under uniaxial tension, and converts this effect into the effect of the diffraction elastic constant. This establishes a theoretical calculation model for the diffraction elastic constant of complex materials, and derives a "new" diffraction elastic constant for the matrix phase. The matrix phase strain is also obtained using the diffraction method.

[0014] The diffraction method for strain measurement is mainly based on Bragg's law:

[0015] When a beam with a wavelength of When X-rays hit the surface of a crystal, they will be reflected at a specific angle ( ) receives the peak of X-ray reflected light, which is the X-ray diffraction phenomenon. The diffraction angle The wavelength of X-rays , the diffraction crystal plane spacing d follows the famous Bragg law: .like Figure 6 shown.

[0016] Bragg's law establishes a definite relationship between the diffraction angle that can be accurately measured macroscopically and the interplanar spacing of the material. The elastic strain corresponding to the stress in the material is characterized by the relative change in the interplanar spacing. When it exists, the interplanar spacing d changes with the relative orientation of the crystal plane and the stress. According to Bragg's law, the corresponding diffraction angle It will also change.

[0017] The basic principle of measuring residual stress by neutron diffraction is similar to that of the X-ray method, which also determines the strain ε by measuring the change in the interplanar spacing d. Unlike X-ray diffraction, which can only measure the surface stress of the sample, the neutron beam has stronger penetrating power and can obtain diffraction information within a larger range of the sample's internal space.

[0018] The neutron diffraction method determines the change of d value by the time of flight method. According to Bragg's law: , assuming that the interplanar spacing changes under stress , then the material lattice strain can be expressed as:

[0019] (1-1)

[0020] In the time-of-flight mode, due to the scattering angle is fixed, the neutron flight time , so the elastic strain can be obtained from formula (1-1):

[0021]

[0022] In the formula is the flight time of neutrons in the unstressed sample, is the interplanar spacing of the sample in a stress-free state.

[0023] The present invention provides a new method for measuring residual stress of complex phase materials using a diffraction method, comprising the following steps:

[0024] Step 1

[0025] Obtain the average bulk modulus of the complex phase material to be tested by measuring or looking up and the average shear modulus ; In the present invention, the average bulk modulus of the composite material and the average shear modulus It can be measured in a variety of ways, the most commonly used method being the pulse excitation method.

[0026] The present invention adopts the pulse excitation method to measure the average bulk modulus of the composite material and the average shear modulus The following steps are included:

[0027] Prepare the sample according to the national standard and obtain the sample mass, length, width, and thickness; place the sample horizontally on two horizontally tensioned platinum wires, with the excitation point and signal collection point at two opposite corners of the sample, and collect the bending vibration frequency and torsional vibration frequency;

[0028] Substitute the collected bending vibration frequency and torsional vibration frequency into the formula to obtain the dynamic Young's modulus E, shear modulus G, and bulk modulus K; if the test material is a complex material, then K and G are equivalent to the average bulk modulus of the complex material. and the average shear modulus ;

[0029] Calculation of elastic modulus E:

[0040] Where:

[0041] G = shear modulus, in Pa,

[0042] = torsional vibration frequency, in Hz,

[0043] B is the shape parameter ;

[0044] A is the parameter obtained through experience. ;

[0045] Calculation of bulk modulus K:

[0046] (5)

[0047] In specific applications, the dynamic Young's modulus measurement method of refractory materials specified in GB / T30758-2014 is adopted; the outside micrometer specified in GB / T1216-2018 is adopted.

[0048] In specific applications, samples are made according to GB / T30758-2014. The specific requirements for the samples are as follows:

[0049] a) The specimen is a rectangular parallelepiped with a length of not less than 60 mm, and the ratio of length (L), width (b), and thickness (t) is approximately 20:5:1;

[0050] b) The parallelism errors of the specimen length, width and thickness are less than 0.5%, 0.1% and 0.1% respectively;

[0051] c) The surface of the specimen should be smooth and flat, and the edges do not need to be chamfered;

[0052] d) The mass of the sample should not be less than 5g.

[0053] The steps to measure and obtain sample parameters are as follows:

[0054] The sample mass shall be weighed using a balance with an accuracy of 1 mg, and the length, width, and thickness of the sample shall be measured using a vernier caliper in accordance with GB / T 1216. When testing the width and thickness of the sample, the two ends and the middle of the sample shall be measured separately, and the average value shall be taken.

[0055] Place the sample horizontally on two horizontally tensioned platinum wires, with the excitation point and signal collection point at two diagonal corners of the sample, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bending vibration frequency and the torsional vibration frequency are collected.

[0056] Step 2

[0057] Use micromechanics models to calculate the diffraction elastic constants of specific crystal planes of the matrix phase of complex materials;

[0058] The micromechanical model is derived as follows:

[0059] ① Derivation of macroscopic stress and strain of complex materials

[0060] Assume that the material global coordinate system is [S], the test coordinate system is [L], and the direction cosine of the strain direction L3 relative to the material global coordinate system [S] is L3(e, f, g). The angle between L3 and the vertical coordinate axis S1 is , the angle between the horizontal component of L3 and the horizontal coordinate axis S1 is , from which we can get:

[0061] (6)

[0062] Therefore, the strain in direction L3 for:

[0063] (7)

[0064] In formula (7) , , represents the principal strain in the test coordinate system, , , , represents the shear strain in the test coordinate system;

[0065] Substituting (6) into (7) we get:

[0066] (8)

[0067] On the other hand, the relationship between the strain and stress of the material as a whole is calculated by using the elastic compliance of the material [S ij ]The matrix can be expressed as:

[0081] In formula (13), S E represents the Eshelby tensor; substituting Eq. (12) into Eq. (13) and transforming it, we can obtain:

[0083] Since the load strain and load stress of the complex material have the following relationship:

[0084] (15)

[0085] In formula (15), is the average elastic compliance of the composite material. Substituting Equation (15) into Equation (14) and rearranging it, we can obtain:

[0086] (16)

[0087] In formula (16), I is the unit matrix, let:

[0088] (17)

[0089] Then we have:

[0090] (18)

[0091] In the formula and and S E The average bulk modulus of the composite material at any time and the average shear modulus The tensor expression of the function is:

[0092]

[0093] (19)

[0094]

[0095] Where the average bulk modulus and the average shear modulus The value of can be measured; according to formula (18) and T A From the relational expression, we can see that T A Similar to the elastic compliance of the material, it is the interaction factor of the elastic compliance of each phase of the complex material; as long as the elastic constant of the second phase is given You can find out ;

[0096] In summary, the relationship between the second phase and the applied stress in a composite material is:

[0097] (20)

[0098] ③ Derivation of the calculation formula for the diffraction elastic constant of the component phases in complex materials

[0099] Considering that the second phase is randomly distributed and has the same distribution probability in each orientation in three-dimensional space, when the material as a whole is only subjected to uniaxial stress, the second phase has a certain By averaging the crystal plane strain and comparing it with the macroscopic stress-strain relationship, the calculation formula for the "crystal plane diffraction elastic constant" of phase A of the complex material can be obtained as follows:

Therefore, when the principal strain is unknown, it is necessary to measure the strain in at least 6 directions of the matrix phase. , d is an integer from 1 to 6, and 6 linear equations are constructed to solve the strain tensor:

[0132] (26)

[0133] After obtaining the strain tensor, the components of the stress tensor of the complex material can be calculated using formula (25).
