Abstract

Magnitude and distribution of residual stresses around cold-worked holes in 1045 steel were measured with the Fastress automatic stress X-ray analyzer. Permanent interferences between 0.8% and 6.2% at a hole with 0.5 in. diameter produced compressive hoop and radial stresses up to -60 ksi and -40 ksi respectively. The size of the zone with compressive stress is significantly wider than existing analysis predicts.
