Abstract:

The beneficial effect of shot peening on fatigue resistance of structural alloys is well documented and widely used in industry to improve component life. It is perhaps the most widely used technique which relies on the introduction of residual stresses into the component by direct mechanical means. The resulting stress states are usually evaluated experimentally by X-ray diffraction or other stress measurement techniques. In order for shot peening operations to be effective and reliable, ...
