    Abstract : This is a thesis project, analysing data from high-resolution imaging observations, specifically speckle imaging, as a follow up study of exoplanet host stars observed with K2, the second operational phase of the space telescope Kepler. The project was accomplished at NASA Ames research center under the guidance of Rachel A. READ MORE

  3. 2. Residual stresses and distortions in austenitic stainless steel 316L specimens manufactured by Selective Laser Melting

    University essay from Högskolan Väst/Avdelningen för svetsteknologi (SV)

    Author : Henrik Nöbauer; [2018]
    Keywords : Residual Stresses; Distortions; SLM; Selective Laser Melting; 316L; X-ray diffraction; XRD; ESPI; Hole drilling;

    Abstract : Residual stresses are one of the major challenges in additive manufacturing of metallic materials today. They are induced during manufacturing because of the rapid local heating and cooling and may cause distortions, cracking and delamination between layers. READ MORE

  4. 3. Investigation of material removal techniques for residual stress profile determination on induction hardened steel

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Natalie Pettersson; [2017]
    Keywords : X-ray diffraction; Residual stress measurements; material removal; induction hardening; ESPI;

    Abstract : The residual stress profile is a major factor on the fatigue life of components that are subjected to cyclic loading. In order to measure these stresses x-ray diffraction (XRD) is commonly used. The penetration depth of x-rays is limited for this method and thus, it must be combined with material removal to determine in-depth stress profiles. READ MORE
