“…Recently, Berry (2006, 2009) developed a technique based on the measurement of the changes in the spacing of the micro-indents, which occur when the machined component is subjected to a distension treatment. More recently this method has been optimized, which allowed to carry out different studies in order to analyze the behavior of the normal and tangential components of residual stress in all directions, for the case of different aluminum alloys milled at high speed (Díaz et al, 2010;Vottero et al, 2017). It is important to note that this optimized approach proposes the use of a universal measuring machine, which leads to a very low measurement error (±0.9 MPa) when it is compared to that associated with the most used techniques such as X-ray diffraction (Noyan and Cohen, 1987;Prevéy, 1987) and the hole-drilling method (Rendler and Vigness, 1966;Gupta, 1973;Díaz et al, 2001), which is approximately ±25 MPa.…”
