    Notes: Internal stresses are very important for the performance of protective hard coatings. Tensile stressesfavour the formation and propagation of cracks, inducing fracture and corrosion. Mediumcompressive stresses hinder fatigue. But high compressive stresses, typically for hard coatingsproduced by PVD (physical vapour deposition) processes, support delamination in order to relax thestored elastic energy. However notwithstanding its relevance, the internal stresses are only seldomused for the optimisation and quality control of hard coatings in industry. This unsatisfying situationis caused by the deficit in efficient measuring methods. The results of thin sheets, where the stressescan be simply measured by their curvature, are not necessarily representative for the coating ofthicker parts. The conventional XRD (X-ray Diffraction), based on angle-dispersive evaluationneeds expensive devices and is rather time consuming. The energy-dispersive technique opens newpossibilities. It is based on polychromatic radiation. The interference of the lattice plane reflectionscorresponding to the Bragg-equation is investigated by the diffraction intensity of the differentwavelength (or photon energies), not by varying the Bragg-angle as in conventional XRD. Hence,the whole diffraction pattern can be obtained in one shoot without the use of any goniometer. Thisallows the construction of small and compact measuring devices and the reduction of measuringtime to a few minutes. The capability of the ED-XRD (Energy Dispersive X-ray Diffraction) isdemonstrated for titanium nitride and chromium nitride films deposited by cathodic vacuum arcwith varying parameters. Comparisons were made with the much more time-consuming AD-XRD(Angle Dispersive X-ray Diffraction) for residual stress analysis. The results of both methods are ingood agreement

    Notes: X-ray diffraction line profiles of a ferritic-pearlitic steel at different stages ofmonotonic and cyclic incremental strain paths were recorded and peak broadening wasregarded. Evaluation of integral peak widths shows, that the distortion of structure is stronglydependent on the deformation path. The results for peak broadening at different deformationstates correlate with flow stress behaviour and can be explained with certain dislocationarrangements

    Notes: Abstract Investigations of residual stresses have been carried out on unidirectionally carbon fibre reinforced aluminium using X-ray diffraction. It was found that the carbon exists in compression parallel to the fibre axis and in tension perpendicular to the fibre axis after the fabrication of the MMCs by a liquid infiltration process. Furthermore, it was observed that the intermetallic phase Al3Ni was in tension (+ 100 MPa) parallel to the fibre axis and in considerable residual compression (– 400 MPa) perpendicular to the fibre axis.
