Copper electroplating [1–8] is an experimental stress analysis technique that measures the surface stress of a component subjected to repeated loads. As this method utilises grain growth in the deposited layer, an output part, like a lead wire of an electrical resistance strain gauge, is not necessary. Thus, this method has an advantage when applied to machine elements in sealed casings. It has been recognised that the grains grown in copper foil depend on the shearing stress amplitude. The reason why the shearing stress dominates the grain growth is considered in Ref. [3], which confirms the formation of slip-band in the surface of the copper foil after cyclic loading. It has also been confirmed that the generated position of slip-bands almost corresponds to the position of grown grains in the copper foil, as revealed by electrochemical polishing and etching. As the maximum shearing stress component is responsible for the formation of slipbands at the initial stage of the material fatigue process [9], it is considered that the shearing stress amplitude dominates grain growth. If the modulus of elasticity of the measured object is different, the strain of the surface is different for the identical shearing stress. Therefore, the range in which the grown grains are generated is generally expressed in strain components rather than stress. The shearing strain amplitude necessary for grains to grow is about 0.9–1.8 · 10 [1, 2] and the temperature at which the copper electroplating method can be applied is below 80 C, because the thermal recrystallization is perfectly generated at about 130 C · 1 h [3]. As electroplating copper to a machine element can only be performed to a material which is easily electroplated, adhering the electrodeposited copper foil to the machine element is generally utilised. Calibration is the first stage in any copper electroplating method. Then, the actual test is carried out by using the same electroplating conditions as the calibration test or by adhering electrodeposited copper foil of equal quality to the foil used for the calibration test. It is possible to measure stresses by comparing results with the calibration test. As copper foil can be produced in large pieces, it is easy to use the same piece of foil for both calibration and the stress analysis test, thereby avoiding the problems caused by slight differences in plating solution and condition that can occur in the electroplating version of this technique. It is impossible to measure each principal stress of the machine element in a biaxial stress state because the grains grown in copper foil depend on the shearing stress amplitude. This seriously restricts the applications of the copper electroplating method. To overcome this, the authors have developed a new method that utilises electrodeposited copper foil with microcircular holes [10]. This method examines the phenomenon of slip-band formation at the periphery of microcircular holes during cyclic loading. There are four locations at the edge of a hole where stress becomes a maximum in pure shear and two locations where stress becomes a maximum in the other combined stress. Slip-band formation occurs in these locations. However, when multiple circular holes were formed in the copper foil, the relationship between the stress at which slip bands begin to occur and the number of cycles is different for each individual hole, as strain values at the maximum stress concentration locations are microscopically different. Therefore, it is necessary to use a statistical technique for many circular holes, when examining slip-band formation. The principal stresses (r1, r2) are determined using the ratio of the number of points at hole edges at which slip-bands form to the number of points at hole edges at which stress becomes maximum in addition to the density of the grains grown in the copper foil itself [10]. However, as many microcircular holes must be observed to improve measurement accuracy, and a larger measurement region is required for this. In this report, the authors developed the new biaxial stress measurement method which can measure principal stresses by using much fewer holes than the above-mentioned method [10]. It is well known that the stress distribution around the circular
