为研究激光喷丸强化对7075-T6铝合金半圆孔件疲劳寿命的影响,对激光喷丸与未喷丸的试样进行了对比试验,利用X射线应力仪测定其表面残余应力,并对试样进行疲劳拉伸试验.用扫描电镜观察了两类试样疲劳断口的形貌,并采用数理统计方法对其疲劳寿命进行分析.研究表明:经激光喷丸处理区域,表面存在较大的残余压应力,幅值为310 MPa;未喷丸试样疲劳裂纹条带的宽度为0.7~0.8μm,而喷丸试样疲劳裂纹条带的宽度为0.3~0.4μm,说明喷丸试样裂纹扩展的速度比未喷丸试样慢很多;激光喷丸后半圆孔件的疲劳寿命比未喷丸的疲劳寿命提高了2.8~7.2倍.     

Effect of shot peening on fatigue limit of surface flawed samples

The effects of shot peening on the fatigue limit of specimens having a semicircular notch of varied surface length, 2a , are investigated. In the case of un-peened specimens, the fatigue limit of specimens having a notch of a = 0.05 mm was equal to that of the un-notched specimens. However, the fatigue limit of a = 0.3 mm was 46% smaller than that of the un-notched specimens. On the contrary, in the case of peened specimens, the fatigue limit of a = 0.2 mm was equal to that of the un-notched specimens and furthermore, that of a = 0.3 mm was only 5% smaller than that of the un-notched specimens. Multiple non-propagating cracks were observed in peened specimens after fatigue testing. The stress intensity factor of the maximum non-propagating crack size corresponded to that of a = 0.2 mm notch. These results indicate that shot peening increases fatigue limit and decreases the likelihood that a surface flaw will result in failure.     

Influence of residual stresses from shot peening on fretting fatigue crack growth

One method to improve fretting fatigue life is to shot peen the contact surfaces. Experimental fretting life results from specimens in a Titanium alloy with and without shot peened surfaces were evaluated numerically. The residual stresses were measured at different depths below the fretting scar and compared to the corresponding residual stress profile of an unfretted surface. Thus, the amount of stress relaxation during fretting tests was estimated. Elastic–plastic finite element computations showed that stress relaxation was locally more significant than that captured in the measurements. Three different numerical fatigue crack growth models were compared. The best agreement between experimental and numerical fatigue lives for both peened and unpeened specimens was achieved with a parametric fatigue growth procedure that took into consideration the growth behaviour along the whole front of a semi‐elliptical surface crack. Furthermore, the improved fretting fatigue life from shot peening was explained by slower crack growth rates in the shallow surface layer with compressive residual stresses from shot peening. The successful life analyses hinged on three important issues: an accurate residual stress profile, a sufficiently small start crack and a valid crack growth model.     

Influence of shot peening parameters on high‐cycle fatigue strength of steel produced by powder metallurgy process

In this study, the effect of shot peening parameters on fatigue strength of steel manufactured by powder metallurgy (PM) was investigated. Steel material obtained from Höganas ASC 100.29 in chemical composition of Fe–0.5% C–2% Cu was produced by using a single action press PM process. To determine the effect of shot peening parameters on fatigue performance, fatigue tests were performed on 20 unpeened and 80 shot‐peened samples, which were machined from sintered steel. Furthermore, shot‐peened samples were peened at different peening intensities, 100% and 200% saturation and full coverage conditions. Fatigue performance of steel, produced by PM process, was improved by surface peening process. For the studied PM steel, the best fatigue performance was obtained with the samples that were shot peened at 20 Almen intensity and 100% saturation. Fatigue strength and limit of the samples, however, were reduced after a certain cold work level. Higher intensity and saturation levels of peening process thus deteriorated the beneficial effect on fatigue strength and limit.     

The influence of hammer peening on fatigue in high-strength steel

An investigation of the influence of hammer peening on fatigue crack initiation and propagation in high-strength steel has been performed using edge notch specimens. The crack initiation time was found to decrease after peening; however, the fatigue crack growth stage remained unchanged or decreased depending upon the peening parameters. The results have been used to develop an analytical model to predict the fatigue crack growth rate in peened materials, based upon the compressive residual stress effect.     

Laser peening and shot peening effects on fatigue life and surface roughness of friction stir welded 7075-T7351 aluminum

The effects of laser peening, shot peening, and a combination of both on the fatigue life of Friction Stir Welds (FSW) was investigated. The fatigue samples consisted of dog bone specimens and the loading was applied in a direction perpendicular to the weld direction. Several laser peening (LP) conditions with different intensities, durations, and peening orders were tested in order to obtain the optimum peening parameters. The surface roughness resulting from various peening techniques was assessed and characterized. The results indicate a significant increase in fatigue life using LP compared to shot peening when tested on their native welded specimens.

The influence of partial surface shot peening on fatigue crack growth behaviour of a high‐strength ferritic steel

The effects of partial surface shot peening on the fatigue crack growth behaviour of a ferritic steel have been experimentally investigated in this paper. Dog‐bone specimens fabricated from Optim700QL were tested under tension‐tension fatigue loads. Three distinct extents of partial shot peening, with respect to the crack tip and specimen symmetry line, were tested. The fatigue crack growth results from these experiments have been compared with those obtained from the same specimen geometry but with no peening. The results show that the residual stress fields formed ahead of the initial notch tip due to the partial peening process play a significant role in the fatigue crack growth behaviour of the material and effectively result in accelerated crack propagation at the midwidth of the specimens. It has been shown in this study that partial peening can lead to a fatigue crack growth rate around twice as fast as that of the unpeened specimen.     

Technical note A study on stress, reflection and double shot peening to inrease compressive residual stress

The technique of shot peening is commonly used to increase the fatigue limit of a steel. However, there are many practical difficulties in applying it to very high HV steel and complicated components. To overcome these problems, the authors proposed two new methods: stress double shot peening and stress reflection double shot peening. Both techniques were applied to quench and tempered steel (QT steel) and induction-heated steel (IH steel). The main results were as follows: (a) by double shot peening, the compressive residual stress near the sample surface was increased considerably; (b) by stress shot peening, the maximum compressive residual stress ( σ _max ) and the surface compressive residual stress ( σ _s ) were greatly increased; (c) by stress double shot peening, very high compressive residual stresses ( σ _max = −1710 MPa and σ _s = −1320 MPa) were successfully introduced into a hard steel (HV = 700); (d) in the new method (stress reflection double shot peening), very high compressive residual stresses ( σ _max = −1760 MPa and σ _s = −1460 MPa) were successfully introduced into a hard steel (HV = 700).     

Recovery of fatigue life using laser peening on 2024‐T351 aluminium sheet containing scratch damage: The role of residual stress

The aim of the current work was to study the effect of laser shock peening (LSP) when applied to 2‐mm thick 2024‐T351 aluminium samples containing scratch‐like defects in the form of V‐shaped scribes 50 to 150 μm deep. The scribes decreased fatigue life to 5% of that of the pristine material. The effect of laser peening on fatigue life was dependent on the specifics of the peen treatment, ranging from further reductions in life to restoration of the fatigue life to 61% of pristine material. Fatigue life was markedly sensitive to near‐surface tensile residual stress, even if a compressive residual stress field was present at greater depth. Fatigue life after peening was also dependent on sample distortion generated during the peening process. Sample distortion modified local stresses generated by externally applied loads, producing additional life changes. Models based on residual stress intensity and crack closure concepts were successfully applied to predict fatigue life recovery.     

喷丸强化对Ti6Al4V半椭圆表面裂纹J积分和裂纹扩展速率的影响

采用修正的J积分计算方法,考虑残余应力、残余应变和残余应变能,定量计算和分析喷丸强化对半椭圆表面裂纹前沿J积分参数的影响规律。对喷丸强化工艺进行有限元建模仿真,通过改变约束条件生成疲劳裂纹并施加远场载荷,计算J积分和裂纹扩展速率。考虑不同深度的半椭圆表面裂纹和不同丸粒速率对断裂参量的影响。结果表明:丸粒速率一定时,与未喷丸相比喷丸后J积分值的降幅随裂纹深度的增加而减小,喷丸强化有益于抑制疲劳浅裂纹的扩展。当裂纹深度为0.3mm时,裂纹最深点的J积分值由4.25N/mm降低到2.99N/mm,降幅约30.1%。裂纹深度一定时,J积分值随丸粒速率的增大而降低,提高丸粒速率对抑制裂纹扩展更有益。     

Effects of laser peening on the fatigue strength and defect tolerance of aluminum alloy

The effects of laser peening (LP) on the bending fatigue strength of the 7075‐T651 aluminum alloy were investigated. Accordingly, the defect tolerance of the aluminum alloy subjected to LP is discussed on the basis of fracture mechanics. The results indicate that a deeper compressive residual stress was induced by LP compared with the case of shot peening (SP). The fatigue strengths increased when both peening types were used. Semicircular slits with depths less than 0.4 and 0.1 mm were rendered harmless on the basis of the applications of LP and SP, respectively. The apparent threshold stress intensity factor range ΔK_th,ap increased by approximately five and two times owing to LP and SP, respectively. The increase of the ΔK_th,ap was caused by the compressive residual stress induced by the peening. The Kitagawa‐Takahashi diagram of the laser‐peened specimens shows that the defect tolerance of the aluminum alloy was improved by LP.     

Effect of severe shot peening on ultra-high-cycle fatigue of a low-alloy steel

It is well known that shot peening is able to increase the fatigue strength and endurance of metal parts, especially with a steep stress gradient due to a notch. This positive effect is mainly put into relation with the ability of this treatment to induce a compressive residual stress state in the surface layer of material and to cause surface work hardening. Recently the application of severe shot peening (shot peening performed with severe treatment parameters) showed the ability to obtain more a remarkable improvement of the high cycle fatigue strength of steels. In this paper severe shot peening is applied to the steel 50CrMo4 and its effect in the ultra-high cycle fatigue regime is investigated. Roughness, microhardness, X-ray diffraction residual stress analysis and crystallite size measurement as well as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations were used for characterizing the severely deformed layer. Tension–compression high frequency fatigue tests were carried out to evaluate the effect of the applied treatment on fatigue life in the ultra-high cycle region. Fracture surface analysis by using SEM was performed with aim to investigate the mechanism of fatigue crack initiation and propagation. Results show an unexpected significant fatigue strength increase in the ultra-high cycle region after SSP surface treatment and are discussed in the light of the residual stress profile and crystallite size.     

Low cycle fatigue life prediction in shot‐peened components of different geometries—part I: residual stress relaxation

In this study, the residual stress relaxation behaviour occurring during low‐cycle fatigue in shot‐peened specimens with either a flat or a notched geometry has been studied. A representative low‐pressure steam turbine material, FV448, was used. The residual stress and strain hardening profiles caused by shot peening were measured experimentally and were then incorporated into a finite element model. By allowing for both effects of shot peening, the residual stress relaxation behaviour was successfully simulated using this model and correlated well with the experimental data. Although more modelling work may be required to simulate the interaction between shot peening effects and external loads in a range of notched geometries, the model predictions are consistent with the specimens tested in the current study. The novelty of this study lies in the development of such a modelling approach which can be used to effectively simulate the complex interaction between shot peening effects and external loads in notched regions. Compared with the un‐notched geometry, the notched geometry was found to be more effective in retaining the improvement in fatigue life resulting from shot peening, by restricting the compressive residual stress relaxation during fatigue loading.

Laser shock peening on fatigue crack growth behaviour of aluminium alloy

The effect of laser shock peening (LPS) in the fatigue crack growth behaviour of a 2024‐T3 aluminium alloy with various notch geometries was investigated. LPS was performed under a ‘confined ablation mode’ using an Nd: glass laser at a laser power density of 5 GW cm^?2. A black paint coating layer and water layer was used as a sacrificial and plasma confinement layer, respectively. The shock wave propagates into the material, causing the surface layer to deform plastically, and thereby, develop a residual compressive stress at the surface. The residual compressive stress as a function of depth was measured by X‐ray diffraction technique. The fatigue crack initiation life and fatigue crack growth rates of an Al alloy with different preexisting notch configurations were characterized and compared with those of the unpeened material. The results clearly show that LSP is an effective surface treatment technique for suppressing the fatigue crack growth of Al alloys with various preexisting notch configurations.

Crack incubation in shot peened AA7050 and mechanism for fatigue enhancement

Shot peening is a dynamic cold‐working process involving the impingement of peening media onto a substrate surface. Shot peening is commonly used as a surface treatment technique within the aerospace industry during manufacturing to improve fatigue performance of structural components. The compressive residual stress induced during shot peening results in fatigue crack growth retardation, improving the performance of shot‐peened components. However, shot peening is a compromise between the benefit of inducing a compressive residual stress and causing detrimental surface damage. Because of the relatively soft nature of AA7050‐T7451, shot peening can result in cracking of the constituent precipitate particles, creating an initial damage state. The aim of this paper is to understand the balance and fundamentals of these competing phenomena through a comparative study throughout the fatigue lifecycle of baseline versus shot‐peened AA7050‐T7451. Microstructure and surface topology characterization and comparison of the baseline and shot‐peened AA7050‐T7451 has been performed using scanning electron microscopy, electron backscatter diffraction, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and optical profilometry techniques. A residual stress analysis through interrupted fatigue of the baseline and shot‐peened AA7050‐T7451 was completed using a combination of X‐ray diffraction and nanoindentation. The fatigue life performance of the baseline versus shot‐peened material has been evaluated, including crack initiation and propagation. Subsurface particles crack upon shot peening but did not incubate into the matrix during fatigue loading, presumably due to the compressive residual stress field. In the baseline samples, the particles were initially intact, but upon fatigue loading, crack nucleation was observed in the particles, and these cracks incubated into the matrix. In damage tolerant analysis, an initial defect size is needed for lifetime assessment, which is often difficult to determine, leading to overly conservative evaluations. This work provides a critical assessment of the mechanism for shot peening enhancement for fatigue performance and quantifies how incubation of a short crack is inhibited from an initially cracked particle into the matrix within a residual stress field.     

喷丸过程中的能量转化及残余应力分布研究

本文建立了喷丸表面强化过程的三维有限元模型,研究了靶材的力学性能及弹丸喷射速度对能量转化率和残余应力分布的影响规律。通过对有限元计算结果的分析发现,杨氏模量与屈服强度之比E/&;#61555;y较大,应变硬化率较低的靶材喷丸效率较高。屈服强度的提高使得最大残余压应力变大,残余压应力场深度变小。应变硬化率和喷丸速度的提高均会使最大残余压应力及其深度变大,同时会使表面残余压应力减小并向拉应力转变。本文的研究结果从能量转化的角度为喷丸强化件材料的选择提供了理论基础
