Residual stress analysis of aluminium welds with high energy synchrotron radiation at the HARWI II beamline — •Torben Fischer, René V. Martins, and Andreas Schreyer — GKSS research centre, Max-Planck-Str. 1, 21502 Geesthacht

In civil aircraft production advanced welding techniques, like laser beam welding or friction stir welding, are used to reduce weight and production costs. By the welding process residual stresses are introduced in the weld zone and the surrounding area. These stresses may depend on diverse factors and can have disadvantageous influence on the service performance of the weld. For strain scanning GKSS research centre built up the high energy materials science beamline HARWI II at HASYLAB. The use of high energetic photons from about 80keV - 120keV enables diffraction experiments in transmission geometry, which provides the information about the macroscopic stresses. A large sample-detector-distance ensures a high angular resolution for the peak position determination. The heavy load diffractometer allows making use of massive sample environments.

For example laser beam welded t- and butt-joints were investigated with high spatial resolution. The large grain size of the specimen makes the measurements with high spatial resolution more difficult due to the poor grain statistics. The influences of the gauge volume size and grain statistics on the strain measurements were systematically investigated. For the t-joint configuration two dimensional stress maps were calculated from the data. For the near future an in-situ FSW experiment is planed to investigate the metallophysical processes during the welding.
