    Abstract: In a stress measurement method, an object to be measured is vibrated at a plurality of oscillation frequencies, and a temperature amplitude of the object to be measured is measured by using a temperature sensor. Parameters of a one-dimensional heat conduction equation described below are identified by performing curve-fitting, on the basis of the one-dimensional heat conduction equation, on a measurement value of the temperature amplitude with respect to frequency characteristics of a temperature change component and a phase component based on a thermoelastic effect. The frequency characteristics are obtained at the plurality of oscillation frequencies. The one-dimensional heat conduction equation indicates a theoretical solution of a temperature amplitude on a surface of a coating film based on heat conduction and the thermoelastic effect of each of a substrate and the coating film. Then, a stress of the object to be measured is obtained based on the identified parameters.

    Abstract: A fatigue limit stress specification system includes: a vibration generator that repeatedly applies a load to an object to be measured; a temperature sensor that measures a change in temperature of the object to be measured; and an information processing device that measures a fatigue limit stress of the object to be measured. The information processing device obtains a relation between a temperature amplitude of a fundamental frequency component of vibration for the object to be measured and a temperature amplitude of a second harmonic component of the vibration, performs fitting on the relation by using a first approximate line and a second approximate line, the first approximate line including a quadratic curve, the second approximate line including a quadratic curve, and obtains the fatigue limit stress of the object to be measured based on an intersection of the first approximate line and the second approximate line.

    Abstract: A stress distribution measurement method is a method of measuring stress distribution generated on a structural object including two support parts and a beam part provided between the support parts. The method includes: generating first image data by performing, through a first image capturing unit, image capturing of a moving object or an identification display object attached to the structural object from the moving object; calculating, based on the first image data, a movement duration in which the moving object moves between the support parts; generating, as second image data, thermal image data by performing image capturing of the surface of the beam part through a second image capturing unit; calculating a temperature change amount based on a second image data group corresponding to the movement duration; and calculating a stress change amount based on the temperature change amount to calculate stress distribution based on the stress change amount.
