The growing complexity of modern manufacturing has intensified the need for precise control of residual stresses to ensure structural reliability, dimensional stability, and material performance. This study conducts a bibliometric review using data from Scopus and Web of Science, covering publications from 2019 to 2024. Residual stress research in metal manufacturing has gained prominence, particularly in relation to welding, additive manufacturing, and machining-processes that induce significant stress gradients affecting mechanical behavior and service life. Emerging trends focus on simulation-based prediction methods, such as the finite element method, heat treatment optimization, and stress-induced defect prevention. Key thematic clusters include process-induced microstructural changes, mechanical property enhancement, and the integration of modeling with experimental validation. By analyzing the evolution of research output, global collaboration networks, and process-specific contributions, this review provides a comprehensive overview of current challenges and identifies strategic directions for future research in residual stress management in advanced metal manufacturing.
现代制造业日益增长的复杂性加剧了精确控制残余应力的需求，以确保结构可靠性、尺寸稳定性和材料性能。本研究使用来自Scopus和Web of Science的数据进行文献计量综述，涵盖2019年至2024年的出版物。金属制造中的残余应力研究已变得突出，特别是在与焊接、增材制造以及会引起显著应力梯度从而影响机械性能和使用寿命的加工过程相关的方面。新兴趋势集中在基于模拟的预测方法，如有限元法、热处理优化以及应力诱发缺陷预防。关键主题集群包括工艺诱导的微观结构变化、机械性能增强以及建模与实验验证的整合。通过分析研究产出的演变、全球合作网络以及特定工艺的贡献，本综述全面概述了当前的挑战，并确定了先进金属制造中残余应力管理未来研究的战略方向。
