ASM Residual Stress Technical Committee

I am reaching out again for assistance with the chapter on failure analysis for our Residual Stress Handbook project.  This project is part of the Residual Stress Technical Committee that formed in 2020.

 Many of you have already provided guidance, and I truly appreciate the help.  I have attempted to put together an outline.  Case histories will be covered in a separate chapter.  Together, we can get a solid chapter that will advance knowledge of how residual stresses cause failures and how to detect them.

 Proposed outline:

1.  The residual stress failure dilemma – The failure often relieves the stresses we are trying to measure
2. Failures often attributed to residual stress
1. Quench cracking
2. Fastener failures
3. Welding failures
4. Warpage
5. ?
3. The relationship between residual stress and fatigue
4. The special cases of stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement
5. Methods to detect residual stress and the applicability to the type of failure
6. ?
7. ?

Please comment/expand/modify the above so we can cover the topic fully.  I would like to see a collaboration between FAS and RSTC.  I feel it would be a win/win for both entities.

Thank you!
