Description
Summary:This paper highlights many unanswered questions relating to the characterisation of residual stresses in weldments and their treatment in engineering critical assessment and fitness for service assessment codes and standards. The need for an overarching standardisation framework is identified which goes beyond developing good practice guidelines for numerical prediction or measurement using a specific technique. The framework should cover all uncertainties and possible errors in measuring, simulating and interpreting residual stress in the context of structural integrity assessment.
