This study aims to demonstrate the capability of the digital image correlation (DIC) technique for evaluating full-field residual stresses in wire and arc additive manufactured (WAAM) components. Investigations were carried out on WAAM steel parts (wall deposited on a substrate) with two different wall heights: 24 mm and 48 mm. Mild steel solid wire AWS ER70S-6 was used to print WAAM walls on substrates that were rigidly clamped to H-profiles. DIC was used to monitor the bending deformation of WAAM parts during unclamping from the H-profiles, and residual stresses were calculated from the strain field captured during unclamping. Residual stresses determined from the proposed DIC-based method were verified with an analytical model and validated by the results from established residual stress measurement techniques, i.e., the contour method and X-ray diffraction.
本研究旨在证明数字图像相关(DIC)技术评估电弧增材制造(WAAM)部件全场残余应力的能力。对两种不同壁高(24毫米和48毫米)的WAAM钢部件(沉积在基板上的壁)进行了研究。采用低碳钢实心焊丝AWS ER70S-6在刚性夹紧到H型钢的基板上打印WAAM壁。DIC用于监测WAAM部件从H型钢上松开过程中的弯曲变形,并根据松开过程中捕获的应变场计算残余应力。通过解析模型对基于DIC的方法确定的残余应力进行了验证,并通过既定的残余应力测量技术(即轮廓法和X射线衍射)的结果进行了验证。
