Extract
The residual stress induced by grinding or some thermal treatment has a large effect on the strength of ceramics. The X-ray technique can be used to nondestructively measure the residual stress in small areas on the surface of polycrystalline materials. The X-ray stress measurement is based on. the continuum mechanics for macroscopically isotropic polycrystalline materials. In this method, the stress value is calculated selectively from strains of a particular diffraction plane in the grains which are favorably oriented for the diffraction. In general, however, the elastic constants of a single crystal depend on the plane of the lattice, since a single crystal is anisotropic, The behavior of the deformation of individual crystals in the aggregate of polycrystalline materials under applied stress has not yet been solved successfully. Therefore, the stress constant and elastic constants for a particular diffracting plane should be determined experimentally in order to determine the residual stress accurately by X-ray diffraction.
