← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when residual stresses exceed tensile strength?
A)Workpiece distortion after investment casting✓
B)Increased magnetic field strength stability
C)Improved elevated temperature creep resistance
D)Enhanced fatigue crack propagation lifespan
💡 Explanation
Workpiece distortion happens because residual stresses in the casting induce plastic deformation, exceeding tensile capabilities where stress relief treatments were insufficient after, therefore, distortion occurs rather than maintained shape due to compressive stress.
