Fatigue Design

 Austenitic stainless steel cannot be hardened by any form of heat treatment, in fact, quenching from 10000C merely softens them. They are usually cold worked to increase the hardness. Shot peening is a cold working process that changes micro-structure as well as residual stress in the surface layer. In the present work, the compressive residual stress and fatigue strength of AISI 304 austenitic stainless steel have been evaluated at various shot peening conditions. The improvement in various mechanical properties such as hardness, damping factors and fatigue strength was noticed. Compressive residual stress induced by shot peening varies with cyclic loading due to relaxation of compressive residual stress field. The consideration of relaxed compressive residual stress field instead of original compressive residual stress field provides reliable fatigue design of components. In this paper, the exact reductions in weight and control of mechanical properties due to shot peening process are discussed.

A 3D finite element model is established to simulate the ultrasonic shot peening process by using a finite element software ABAQUS. The residual stress distribution of the AISI 304 stainless steel induced by ultrasonic shot peening (USP) is predicted by finite element analysis. Ultrasonic shot peening (USP) process can cause a compressive residual stress layer on the surface of the material. During the simulation, many factors, e.g., ultrasonic shot peening duration, initial residual stress, hourglass, etc., are taken into consideration for the purpose of optimizing the process. The simulation results show that ultrasonic shot peening can produce a compressive residual stress layer on the surface of the material even if there is initial residual tensile stress (250MPa) and the longer peening duration. The residual stress of simulation were compared with the experiment data which were obtained under the same ultrasonic shot peening parameters and have a good agreement with the measurement values by X-ray diffraction method. In conclusion, ultrasonic shot peening is an effective method for protecting weldments against stress corrosion cracking by introducing the compressive residual stress layer into the surface of stainless steel.

The mechanical properties of austenitic stainless steel are rarely improved by heat treatment. Shot peening is a well-known cold working process that affects thin surface of materials. By controlling the shot peening intensity and shot size, the variable mechanical properties film thickness was obtained from 0.05 mm to 0.5 mm. The damping factor and compressive residual stress are determined experimentally and forming a relation between them. It was found that damping factor in thin film surface increases with depth of deformed layer. An investigation was carried out, and it was found that the increase in damping factor was due to introduction of compressive residual stress and increased hardness due to shot peening. The paper discusses a model of changing damping properties with compressive residual stress and depth of deformed layer of austenitic stainless steel.

The effects of micro-shot peening on the rotating bending fatigue resistance of AISI 304 stainless steel (SS) were investigated in this study. The strain-hardening, surface roughness and induced residual stress were inspected and correlated with fatigue strength. Micro-shot peening caused intense strain-hardening, phase transformation and residual stress but was also accompanied by a minor increase in surface roughness. A nanograined structure, which was advantageous to fatigue resistance, was observed in the severe shot-peened layer. The absence of microcracks, minor increase in surface roughness, nanograined structure and induced high compressive residual stress in the shot-peened layer were responsible for the improved fatigue strength of AISI 304 SS.

Cycle Fatigue

Laser peening without protective coating (LPwC) treatment is one of surface enhancement techniques using impact wave of high pressure plasma induced by laser pulse irradiation. One of the effects of the LPwC treatment is expected to reduce the tensile residual stress and to induce the compressive residual stress in the surface layer of metallic materials. As a laser has no reaction force due to irradiation and also it has easy characteristics for remote control, the LPwC treatment is practically used as a technique for preventing the stress corrosion cracking (SCC) and for improving the fatigue strength of some structural materials. In this study, high cycle fatigue tests with four-points rotating bending loading were carried out on the non-peened and the LPwC treated low-carbon type austenitic stainless steel 316L in order to investigate the effects of the LPwC treatment on the high cycle fatigue strength and the surface fatigue crack propagation behavior. Two types of specimens were prepared; one was a smooth specimen, the other was a specimen with a pre-crack by the fatigue loading from a small artificial hole. As the results of the LPwC treatment, the high compressive residual stress was induced in the surface layer on the specimens, and the region of the compressive residual stress was about 1mm depth from the surface. The fatigue strength of the LPwC treated SUS316L was remarkably improved during the whole regime of the fatigue life up to the 108 cycles compared with the non-peened materials. Through the fracture mechanics investigation of the pre-cracked materials after the LPwC treatment, it became clear that the fatigue crack propagation was restrained by the LPwC treatment on the pre-cracked region, when the stress intensity factor range ΔK on the crack tip was under the value of 7.6 MPa√m.

Shot peening is an important surface treatment which can induce compressive residual stress and refine micro-structure in the deformed surface layer. In this paper, the conventional shot peening, dual shot peening and triple shot peening have been applied to S30432 austenitic stainless steel. The residual stress and micro-structure in the deformed layer were investigated by X-ray diffraction method. The results revealed that a compressive residual stress field was induced in the deformed layer for all shot peening conditions. As the shot peening step increased, the compressive residual stresses increased in near surface layer, and then deceased faster in deeper deformed layer. In terms of microstructure, the domain size increased, while the micro-strain decreased with the depth increasing in the deformed layer. Compare with the effect of three different shot peening method, triple shot peenng is more effective to optimize the compressive residual stress, microstructure and micro-hardness of S30432 austenitic stainless steel.

Ultrasonic Shot Peening

In this paper, in order to investigate the effect of the ultrasonic shot peening (USP) treatment on fatigue characteristics of the structural materials for hydroelectric facilities, plane bending fatigue tests were carried out using stainless cast steel ASTM CA6NM performed by USP treatment. The fatigue test results showed that the fatigue strength of the USP materials was approximately 60% higher than that of the untreated materials. In order to examine the reason for that, the effect of USP treatment on fatigue crack initiation behavior was evaluated based on the Haigh's diagram. This evaluation implied that increasing the crack initiation resistance associated with high hardness and high compressive residual stress at surface by USP treatment is the major cause for the improvement of fatigue strength. Furthermore, the effect of USP treatment on fatigue crack propagation behavior was also examined by simulating the crack growth rate considering the stress intensity factor at crack tip. Crack propagation simulation results suggested that compressive residual stress leads crack growth rate slow compared with untreated material.

The Impact

Cavitation normally causes severe damage in hydraulic machinery such as pumps and turbines by the impact produced by cavitation bubbles collapsing. Although cavitation is known as a factor of erosion, Soyama et al. succeeded in utilizing impacts of cavitation bubble collapsing for surface modification by controlling cavitating jet in the same way as shot peening. The local plastic deformation caused by cavitation impact enhances the fatigue strength of metallic materials, and the surface modification technique utilizing cavitation impact is called “cavitation peening (CP)”. It is well known that the peening improves fatigue strength by introducing compressive residual stress on the surface, but little attention has been paid to the behavior of fatigue crack growth of the material which was modified by CP. In the present study, the fatigue behavior of austenite stainless steel with and without CP was evaluated by a plate bending fatigue test, and the results revealed that the compressive residual stress introduced by CP suppresses fatigue crack growth rate by 70 % compared to that without CP.
