W ithin th e l a s t te n years th e re has been much i n t e r e s t in th e

p l a s t i c a l l y deformed in te n s io n a n d /o r compression,. In p a r t i c u l a r , an

in te n s io n , th e B auschinger e f f e c t causes th e y ie ld p o in t in com pression
to occur a t an a p p re c ia b ly low er s t r e s s th an would be exp ec ted . This
i s shown in F ig u re 1 by th e low er com pressive y ie ld s t r e s s which occurs

enon, c a l le d work h a rd en in g , which causes th e n ex t y ie ld p o in t to occur
a t a s t r e s s h ig h e r th an th e f i r s t one. A lo g ic a l ex p lan a tio n f o r t h i s
beh av io r would be th a t r e s id u a l s t r e s s e s a re formed in th e member in

LITERATURE SURVEY
A l i t e r a t u r e search was made to determ ine what work had a lre a d y

5 . Hie f in is h e d specimens must be f r e e from re s id u a l s t r e s s .

When th e d e f le c t io n o f th e beams was m easured, read in g s were taken

amount o f smoothing took p lace in t h i s s te p .
When a beam r e s t s on th e c u rv a tu re m easuring gage, th e w eight o f
th e overhanging ends causes a s l ig h t e r r o r in th e c u rv a tu re . This may be

O bviously, i t was d e s ire a b le to have a s many specimens in a group

Procedure
F la t su rfa c e s (su rfa c e g r in d e r) :
Let us say , fo r example, th a t a .030 inch la y e r has to be ground o f f to some p redeterm ined dim ension. F i r s t , d re s s th e w heel. Proceed to remove th e f i r s t .020 inch in th e somewhat co n v en tio n a l manner o f .001 to .0015 inch depth o f c u t , depending upon th e s iz e o f th e work specim en. But a t no tim e s h a l l th e su rfa ce become d is c o lo re d o r o v erh ea ted to such an e x te n t a s to make i t unbearab le to to u ch .
The rem aining .010 inch la y e r should be removed a s fo llo w s:

For rem oval o f la y e r s o f .010 inch th ic k o r l e s s , proceed as o u tlin e d above.
The above schedule i s based on experim en ta l work done on s t e e l specimens o f 50 Roc hardness w ith a su rfa ce a re a o f approx im ate ly 2 sq . i n . (3A " x 3")* A f te r making f iv e com plete passes over th e specimen

w ith c u ts o f .0001 inch deep (.0005 inch t o t a l th ic k n e ss o f la y e r r e moved), th e wheel re q u ire d re d re s s in g . For p ro p o r t io n a l ly la r g e r a r e a s , say 10 s q . i n . (5" x 2" ) , th e wheel would re q u ire d re s s in g a f t e r one com plete pass w ith a c u t o f .0001 inch deep .

G rind ing Wheel:
To d re ss th e w heel, c u ts o f .001 inch deep w ith a sharp diamond a re found to be most s a t i s f a c to r y .
The diamond should be ra p id ly passed under th e wheel in o rd e r to produce a f r e e c u t t in g w heel. A fte r making th e l a s t pass w ith a .001 inch depth c u t , do n o t rep ass th e diamond under th e wheel b e fo re c le a r in g th e wheel from th e diamond; o therw ise th e diamond w i l l on ly d u l l th e shaii) edges o f th e a b ra s iv e g ra in s on th e face o f th e w heel.
