Prediction and measurement of residual stresses in cladded steel
In a ferritic steel specimen cladded with austenitic stainless steel there is a change in mechanical and thermal properties at the interface causing residual stresses to develop. The residual stresses near the interface of a cladded specimen were examined by neutron diffraction, ring-core and deep-hole measurements and compared with a non-linear elastic-plastic finite element analysis.
