Comparison of Different Simulation Approaches in Ring-Core Method

Ring-Core, a semi-destructive method enables measurement of the residual stresses inside the material by the sensor attached at the top of the specimen. Such stress reconstruction requires proper determination of the calculation coefficients. Thus the simulation model for finite elements analyzes is created by means of two different commercial software. Subsequently both simulation results are compared experimentally by measurement on the specimen loaded by known uniaxial state of stress.
