Neutron Determination of Residual Stress in a Nitrided Notched Part

Article Preview

Abstract:

Nitriding is an hardening thermomechanical treatment generally used to improve fatigue life of steel parts, like gear for example. Another effect of this treatment is generating superficial stress, influenced by nitriding conditions, composition of steel and geometry of the part. This work deals with the effect of shape on the residual stress profile obtain after nitriding on a gear tooth. The residual stress profile was determined using neutrons diffraction technique.
