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.

Ship hatch corner is a common structure in a ship and its fatigue problem has always been one of the focuses in ship engineering due to the long–term high–stress concentration state during the ship’s life. For investigating the fatigue life improvement of the ship hatch corner under different shot peening (SP) treatments, a series of fatigue tests, residual stress and surface topography measurements were conducted for SP specimens. Furthermore, the distributions of the surface residual stress are measured with varying numbers of cyclic loads, investigating the residual stress relaxation during cyclic loading. The results show that no matter which SP process parameters are used, the fatigue lives of the shot–peened ship hatch corner specimens are longer than those at unpeened specimens. The relaxation rate of the residual stress mainly depends on the maximum compressive residual stress (σRSmax) and the depth of the maximum compressive residual stress (δmax). The larger the values of σRSmax and δmax, the slower the relaxation rates of the residual stress field. The results imply that the effect of residual stress field and surface roughness should be considered comprehensively to improve the fatigue life of the ship hatch corner with SP treatment. The increase in peening intensity (PI) within a certain range can increase the depth of the compressive residual stress field (CRSF), so the fatigue performance of the ship hatch corner is improved. Once the PI exceeds a certain value, the surface damage caused by the increase in surface roughness will not be offset by the CRSF and the fatigue life cannot be improved optimally. This research provides an approach of fatigue performance enhancement for ship hatch corners in engineering application.

The influence of shot-peening parameters on surface integrity of 7055 aluminum alloy is investigated based on shot-peening experiments. Surface integrity measurements, fatigue fracture analysis and fatigue life tests are conducted to reveal the effect of surface integrity on crack initiation and fatigue life. The results show that surface roughness increases significantly, and irregular pits and bumps appear on surface after shot-peening; grain on subsurface is refined and produces a shift and distortion in the pellets hit direction; compressive stress can be detected on all machined surfaces. Shot-peening parameters have significant impact on micro-hardness. In comparison with the milled specimen, fatigue life of peened specimens is improved by about 23.8, 3.96 and 1.01 times. Fatigue source zone transfers from stress concentration location on surface to subsurface due to the lower surface roughness and lager residual compressive stress.

The effect of surface machining on fatigue life in high pressure hydrogen gas was investigated. The test was conducted under the elastic range under 45MPa gaseous hydrogen environment by the ground specimen which were machined so that the surface roughness to be Rmax = 19μm(Mark: 19s), 26μm(26s) and 93μm(93s) and by the polished specimen which are prepared so that the surface roughness to be Rmax = 1μm(1s), 3.6μm(3.6s) and 10μm(10s). The hydrogen fatigue life of ground specimens was considerably reduced with increasing surface roughness as compared to the fatigue life in air at the same surface condition. On the other hand, for the annealed conditions of the ground specimen, the reduction by hydrogen effect was fairly small. The residual stress for the ground specimen at the surface rises sharply in tension while the residual stress for the annealed specimen was nearly equal to zero. We have shown that the hydrogen fatigue damage can be evaluated by obtaining the information about residual stress on surface, stress concentration by maximum surface roughness and the threshold stress intensity SH above which hydrogen fatigue damage occurs.

Abstract As the core component of aero-engine, the service performance of aero-engine blade has an important influence on the engine’s reliability and safety performance. Existing studies have shown that machined surface characteristics affect the fatigue strength of components. However, current studies are all based on regular fatigue samples. The structure of blades different from fatigue samples, and the influence mechanism of structural differences on the service performance of blades is still unclear. In addition, the conventional fatigue test conditions are not representative for the blades’ actual service conditions, so it is difficult to realize the processing process for the service performance optimization. In this study, the aero-engine blades processed by abrasive belt grinding and the vibration fatigue test bench were used to explore the influence of surface roughness, surface texture, and surface residual stress on the fatigue performance of aero-engine blades under actual working conditions. The aero-engine blades were ground with different process parameters to obtain different single-factor surface characteristics. By comparing the vibration fatigue life of blades with different surface features, the influence degree of each surface feature on the fatigue life was explored. Results showed that surface roughness has the greatest influence on fatigue strength, followed by residual stress, and surface texture has the least influence on fatigue strength.

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.
