20220349791 · 2022-11-03 ·

The present invention relates to a device for measuring residual stress and hardness. Residual stress remaining in a metallic material due to deformation, thermal stress, or the like is a cause of various problems including degradation of mechanical properties such as fatigue strength and fracture properties and difficulty in post-processing. It is very difficult to derive a calibration curve when measuring stress by an existing non-destructive Barkhausen noise measurement method. When cross points of Barkhausen noise measurements for three or more stresses are not at one position, calibrated curves can be easily found by scaling the Barkhausen noise measurements by using calibration equations of the present invention to collect the cross points at a unique position, thereby providing a practical method of easily measuring stress of a metal by a Barkhausen noise measurement method. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is found that the internal microstructure and surface residual stress of a metal cause crossing points not to be at a unique position in a conventional Barkhausen noise measurement experiment. In addition, basic physical properties and surface residual stress of a metallic material may be measured using the above-mentioned physical feature.
