Abstract
The effects of residual stress on material properties can be divided into two main categories: its influence on material strength, such as fatigue, and its influence on harmful deformation, such as dimension deviation during or after processing. To investigate the effects of residual stress on the mechanical properties of material components, we select a simple structure that underwent loading and unloading cycles. In our finite element numerical simulation, we establish both a macroscopic solid model and an asperity model. Three different models are chosen, and load-displacement curves are obtained. The effects of residual stress on the stiffness of the contact surface are analyzed. Our results show that residual stress has a significant impact on the stiffness of the joint surface, from macroscopic to microscopic perspectives. Specifically, stiffness increases with residual stress when it is tensile stress.
