The analysis of linear dϕψ vs sin2ψ x-ray diffraction data in isotropic single phase materials was investigated for the evaluation of x-ray elastic constants. This study developed an experimental model for estimating x-ray elastic constants based on the analysis of biaxial residual stress states, A ball bearing steel and a 1018 steel weldment were evaluated.
In a second study, the measurement of residual stress gradients was evaluated for those depth ranges mat can not be evaluated with a single radiation. This requires various planes and radiation energies to obtain the simultaneous conditions of high diffraction angle and large x-ray penetration depth. The evaluation of the overlapped stress gradient region is illustrated in terms of x-ray energy and diffraction angle for the ease of iron. This analysis is specifically developed for the purpose of stress gradient measurement using synchrotron radiation.
