“…On the one hand, numerous measurement methods of residual stress have been adopted, such as thermo‐mechanical modelling, 40,41 incremental blind‐hole drilling method, 42–45 digital image correlation approach, 46,47 sharp indentation testing, 48 contour method, 49 wavelength‐dependent neutron diffraction method, 50–53 and X‐ray diffraction method 54 . On the other hand, the effects of the residual stress of welded process on fatigue performances have been investigated, including welding size, 55 welding process, 56 fatigue crack propagation, 26,57–60 fatigue strength, 61 mean stress, 62 the strain energy density (SED) approach for fatigue life prediction by Ferro et al, 63 Ferro and Berto, 64 and Ferro, 65 fatigue life evaluation, 66–68 residual stress relaxation, 69–72 and cutting process 73,74 …”
