In order to measure loading and residual stresses near the notch tip in Al
2O
3 ceramics using a micro X-ray beam of SPring 8 (super Photon ring-8GeV), X-ray elastic constants were first determined experimentally. Mechanical elastic constants of the used material were
E=372GPa and
v=0.23. The diffraction from Al
2O
3 2.0.14 plane by 8keV radiation was used for X-ray stress measurement. The 2θ-sin
2ψ diagrams under several applied stresses were measured. From the relationship between both slope,
M, and intercept 2θ
ψ=0 of 2θ-sin
2ψ diagram and applied stress, X-ray elastic constants were determined to be
Ex=416GPa and
vx=0.20. Next, the local stress measurement in the irradiated area with 100×100μm
2 was examined in comparison to that with 100×500μm
2. Loading stress in a local area with 100×100μm
2 can be measured by the sin
2ψ method. Finally, the local loading stresses, σ
y (
x), near the V-notch tip under a four-point bending load were measured across the minimum ligament of SEVNB (Single-Edge-V-notched Beam) specimen by scanning the micro X-ray beam along the
x-axis. The stress concentration near the notch root was first difficult to be measured directly because of the grinding residual stress by V-notch machining. After annealing, the stress concentration was detected by changing the irradiated area of X-ray from 100×100 to 50×50μm
2. The degradation of the measured stresses in the notch tip was caused by the X-ray irradiation to the notch, and almost agreed with the results of a finite element analysis. The local stress and residual stresses were found to be measured by the sin
2ψ method using synchrotron micro X-ray beam with a spatial resolution of about 50μm.
