The Effect of Machining Residual Stresses on the Dimensional Stability of Aluminum Alloys used in Optical Systems
Dimensional stability of materials is of critical importance in the fabrication of precision components used for applications such as optical systems. One source of dimensional instability is residual stress produced on the surfaces of parts due to machining operations. A creep model is proposed i...
