ASTM A516 Grade 70 is widely used in the industrial sector as it provides very good mechanical properties in tough conditions. The main usage of this material is in moderate and low operating services. This paper focuses on the effect of shot peening process on ASTM A516 Grade 70 on improving the mechanical properties and fatigue life of the material. Samples have been shot peened with steel shot to induce compressive residual stress. Hardness, tensile and fatigue test as well as microstructure were done on the samples before and after shot peening process to study the effects on mechanical properties. The result shows that there is an increment in every test after shot peening process. There is a slight increment of 0.47% in hardness value, 0.39% increment in tensile strength and 6.78% increment in fatigue life of the material after shot peening process applied. The slight increment in every result was due to the low intensity of the shot peening process. Result also shows that the shot peening process compressed the molecules closer to each other as can be seen under SEM. Therefore it was proven that in this study, there is a very significant improvement in mechanical properties and fatigue life by shot peening process on ASTM A516 Grade 70 Steel.

The fatigue life of 7050 Al alloy samples after different surface treatments, i.e., as-machined, anodizing, shot peening, and shot peening followed by anodizing, had been tested. The shot peening treatment specimens presented the longest average fatigue life. The fatigue life of anodizing treatment specimens decreased by 69.3% and 78.8% at 215 MPa and 260 MPa stress levels than as-machined ones. Introducing the shot peening treatment before anodizing can increase the fatigue life by 220% / 296.9% at 215 MPa/260 Mpa than that only treated by anodizing. The effect of the surface treatments on the fatigue life were studied by performing surface morphology investigation, residual stress measurements and fracture surface analysis.

Small steel ball is utilized in Shot peening process. Called “shot ball” are shot in high speed on the surface of metal. When the shot ball hit the surface, it makes plastic deformation and bounce off, that increase the fatigue life by compressive residual stress on surface. In this study, the results of observation on the tensile strength, hardness, surface roughness, compressive residual stress and fatigue life of a shot peened Al6061-T651 were obtained. Experimental results show that arc height increase tremendously by shot velocity. Also, it shows that surface roughness, hardness, compressive residual stress and fatigue life increase as shot velocity increase.

In this paper, a rudimentary analysis of improving fatigue life of metals is presented. The process is viewed as one of repeated impact of a stream of hard shots on to a target. The model considers first a single shot impinging upon a target and, on bouncing, it leaves a residual stress below the surface of the target. The problem is then generalized to consider the effect of a stream of shots by assuming their effect to be uniformly distributed over the entire surface. The analysis is highly simplified and it mainly aims at understanding the mechanics of this complicated process. Although rudimentary, the theoretical analysis is seen to be in reasonable agreement with experimental results performed with shots on targets of various materials.

In this paper the fatigue life of spur gear was investigated by changing the shot peening condition. From bending fatigue test depending on various shot peening intensity, fatigue characteristics were investigated. The causes of reduction in fatigue life were analyzed by observing the surface of gear with Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM), and impact of residual stress to fatigue characteristics was identified by measuring compressive residual stress depending peening intensity by depth. The results show that the optimum shot ball velocity is 65 m/s and optimum peening time is 8 minutes. From SEM image, the micro-crack was observed at the surface in case of over peening. This seems to be the factor which reduces fatigue life by decreasing compressive residual stress of surface.
