Characterization of residual stress state by neutron diffraction and residual magnetic field mapping
(2016)
Based on the residual stress characterization of tungsten inert gas welded S235JRC+C plates by means of neutron diffraction, the evaluation of residual stress with high spatial resolution GMR (giant magneto resistance) sensors is discussed. The experiments performed indicate a correlation of residual stress changes and local residual magnetic stray fields.
Magnetic testing methods are frequently applied in non-destructive evaluation of ferromagnetic materials. In the past decade, metal magnetic memory (MMM) technique according to ISO 24497 is gaining considerable interest in the magnetic NDT community. In contrast to traditional Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) testing, the inspection objects are not intentionally magnetized by an external magnetic field. Due to physical coupling between mechanical stress and magnetization in ferromagnetic materials, it is assumed that the distribution of the “natural” MFL (self-magnetic-leakage field, SMLF) indicate zones of different remanent magnetization, which in turn, correspond to the internal stress of specimen or in the most general sense to material degradation.
Usually, MMM measurements are performed by relatively bulky magnetic inspection sensors providing a spatial resolution in millimetre range. High precision GMR (Giant Magneto Resistance) measurements in the micrometer regime along with image based representation and evaluation can provide a higher degree of information. We present a concise summary of a broader research project aimed at studying the correlation of magnetic structure and microstructure of steels. Particularly, we compare residual stress measurements in S235JR steel by means of neutron diffraction with high resolution magnetic field measurements. In addition, we discuss the influence of deformation-induced magnetization in plastically deformed specimens with and without notches due to various quasi-static and cyclic load levels. Furthermore, comparative measurements with common non-destructive testing methods are presented.
Despite of a quantitative evaluation of material degradation, the in the field inspection by MMM remains problematic due to substantial influences on such as external magnetization, anisotropy of internal magnetization and material degradation, as well as geometry and surface effects of the inspection objects on SMFL signals. The prospects and restrictions of the MMM technique are discussed in this contribution.
The metal magnetic memory (MMM) technique relies on the measurement of stress-induced self-magnetic leakage fields (SMLFs) at the stress concentration zones (SCZs) of ferromagnetic materials during mechanical loading. However, there is an associated change in geometry of the specimen along with the stress due to plastic deformation. This paper presents a three-dimensional finite element (3D-FE) analysis of the stress-induced geometry effect on SMLFs in notched specimens during tensile deformation. The tangential (Hx) and normal (Hy) components of the SMLF signals have been predicted from the deformed specimens caused by different levels of tensile stress. Key parameters from the SMLF signals are determined for the possible estimation of damage in the specimen under tension. Studies reveal that the stress-induced geometry effect has a great influence (about 20%) on the SMLF signals, especially in the plastic deformation stage. The results show that the peak amplitude could be used for the estimation of different deformation stages under tension. The study also reveals that the SMLF signal is influenced by the thickness of the tensile specimen. The model-predicted thickness profile has also been experimentally validated.
The measurement of spontaneous magnetic stray fields of ferromagnetic materials is considered as a new method of non-destructive testing, the Metal Magnetic Memory method. Usually fluxgate sensors with spatial resolution in the order of a few millimeters are used as receivers. This contribution discusses the application of GMR (Giant Magneto Resistance) sensors with a spatial resolution in the micrometer range. Studies reveal that GMR sensors can detect clear demarcated plastic deformations in S235JR steel. Furthermore we present high spatial resolution magnetic measurements of deformation induced martensite formation of AISI 304 metastable austenitic steel for different deformation states.
