Residual stress (RS) is often implicated in the failure of parts or assemblies, but there has not been any quantification or statistics collected on RS induced failures. Using the ASM Failure Analysis Database™, 147 individual case histories of failure analysis involving residual stress were identified and categorized based on various criteria. Information about the type of failure, material, processing, severity, date and other pertinent facts were extracted from the failure write-ups and the statistics on date of publication, material type, and failure type are compiled here. This information is used in conjunction with other compiled information on residual stress induced failures to estimate the impact of various residual stress induced problems in manufacturing and industry. |
