Shot peening is a manufacturing process intended to give components the final shape and to introduce a compressive residual state of stress inside the material in order to increase fatigue life. The modeling and simulation of the residual stress field resulting from the shot peening process are proposed. The behaviour of the peened target material is supposed to be elastic plastic with bilinear characteristics. The results demonstrated the surface layer affected by compressive residual stresses is very thin and the peak is located on the surface.

The paper deals with the effect of different shot peening (SP) treatment conditions on the ENAW 7075-T651 aluminium alloy. Suitable residual stress profile increases the applicability and life cycle of mechanical parts, treated by shot peening. The objective of the research was to establish the optimal parameters of the shot peening treatment of the aluminium alloy in different precipitation hardened states with regard to residual stress profiles in dynamic loading. Main deformations and main residual stresses were calculated on the basis of electrical resistance. The resulting residual stress profiles reveal that stresses throughout the thin surface layer of all shot peened specimens are of compressive nature. The differences can be observed in the depth of shot peening and the profile of compressive residual stresses. Under all treatment conditions, the obtained maximum value of compressive residual stress ranges between -200 MPa and -300 MPa at a depth between 250 μm and 300 μm. Comparison of different temperature-hardened aluminium alloys shows that changes in the Almen intensity values have greater effect than coverage in the depth and profile of compressive residual stresses. Positive stress ratio of R=0.1 was selected. Wöhler curves were determined in the areas of maximum bending loads between 30 - 65 % of material's tensile strength, measured at thinner cross-sections of individual specimens. The results of material fatigue testing differ from the level of shot peening on the surface layer.

Using a three-dimensional crystal plasticity model for cyclic deformation of lath martensitic steel, a simplified scheme is adopted to simulate the effects of shot peening on inducing initial compressive residual stresses. The model is utilized to investigate the subsequent cyclic relaxation of compressive residual stresses in shot peened lath martensitic gear steel in the high cycle fatigue (HCF) regime. A strategy is identified to model both shot peening and cyclic loading processes for polycrystalline ensembles. The relaxation of residual stress field during cyclic bending is analyzed for strain ratios Rε=0 and −1 for multiple realizations of polycrystalline microstructure. Cyclic microplasticity in favorably oriented martensite grains is the primary driver for the relaxation of residual stresses in HCF. For the case of Rε=−1, the cyclic plasticity occurs throughout the microstructure (macroplasticity) during the first loading cycle, resulting in substantial relaxation of compressive residual stresses at the surface and certain subsurface depths. The initial magnitude of residual stress is observed to influence the degree (percentage) of relaxation. Describing the differential intergranular yielding is necessary to capture the experimentally observed residual stress relaxation trends.

The interest on the application of the shot peening process to arrest and/or delay crack growth is rising. The main effect of the shot peening technique is to introduce a residual stress field that increases the working life of mechanical components. In this paper, it is presented the numerical simulation (FEM) of the shot peening process and the effect of introducing a residual stress field. Besides, the consequence of changing the sizes of the impacting ball is analyzed. This work also used the Crack Compliance Method (CCM) for the determination of residual stresses in beams subjected to a numerical simulation of a shot peening process. The numerical results obtained provide a quantitative demonstration of the effect of shot peening on the introduction of residual stresses by using different sizes of impacting balls and assess the efficiency of the CCM.

Recent advances in abrasive waterjet (AWJ) technology have resulted in new processes for surface treatment that are capable of introducing compressive residual stresses with simultaneous changes in the surface texture. While the surface residual stress resulting from AWJ peening has been examined, the subsurface residual stress field resulting from this process has not been evaluated. In the present investigation, the subsurface residual stress distribution resulting from AWJ peening of Ti6Al4V and ASTM A228 steel were studied. Treatments were conducted with the targets subjected to an elastic prestress ranging from 0 to 75% of the substrate yield strength. The surface residual stress ranged from 680 to 1487 MPa for Ti6Al4V and 720 to 1554 MPa for ASTM A228 steel; the depth ranged from 265 to 370 μm for Ti6Al4V and 550 to 680 μm for ASTM A228 steel. Results showed that elastic prestress may be used to increase the surface residual stress in AWJ peened components by up to 100%.

A numerical analytical model for both-side laser shot peening (LSP) of specimen with center-hole was established, the influence of the center-hole on peening effect was investigated, and the 3D residual stress distributions of ZK60 specimen after one-side and both-side LSP were analyzed. The results showed that compressive residual stresses were obtained at the both sides of specimen after both-side LSP, with a stress value of -179.41MPa on the bottom surface, much larger than that of one-side LSP. The typical experiment of LSP for ZK60 specimen was carried out and the experimental data were well correlated with the simulated results.

The understanding of how materials fail is still today a fundamental research problem for scientist and engineers. The main concern is the assessment of the necessary conditions to propagate a crack that will eventually lead to failure. Nevertheless, this kind of analysis tends to be more complicated, when a prior history in the material is taken into consideration and it will be extremely important to recognize all the factors involved in this process. In this work, a numerical simulation of the introduction of residual stresses, which change the crack initiation conditions, in a modified compact tensile specimen to change the condition of crack initiation is presented. Four numerical analyses were carried out; an initial evaluation was performed in a specimen without a crack and it was used for the estimation of a residual stress field produced by an overload; three more cases were simulated and a crack was introduced in each specimen (1 mm, 5 mm and 10 mm, respectively). The overload was then applied to set up a residual stress field into the component; furthermore, in each case the crack compliance method (CCM) was applied to measure the induced residual stress field. By performing this numerical simulation, the accuracy of the crack compliance method can be evaluated. On the other hand, elastic-plastic finite element analysis was utilized for the residual stress estimation. The numerical analysis was based on the mechanical properties of a biocompatible material (AISI 316L). The obtained results provided significant data about diverse factors, like; the manner in which a residual stress field could modify the crack initiation conditions, the convenient set up for induction of a beneficial residual stresses field, as well as useful information that can be applied for the experimental implementation of this research.

Shot peening is a cold working process used to produce a compressive residual stress to modify mechanical properties of metals. It causes impacting a surface with shots with significant force to create plastic deformation. The compressive residual stresses developed by shot peening process helps to avoid the propagation of micro-cracks exist in surface. Shot peening process is often used in aircraft industries to relieve tensile stresses built up in the grinding process, and replace them with beneficial compressive residual stresses. Shot peening has been developed to increase the fatigue strength of metallic parts. Compressive residual stress and surface hardening induced by shot peening process are found beneficial to increase the fatigue life and the resistance to stress corrosion cracking within the metallic component. Even though shot peening has been used for more than 50 years, a review of published papers indicates a lack of studies in numerical modeling. In particular, the effect of complex shot peening process to predict the target material responds to the multiple impacts of shots is not fully revealed. Most studies have investigated the fundamental mechanism and characteristics of fatigue improvement by single shot peening, and have studied the compressive residual stress induced by single normal impact on the surface of the specimen. However, single impact model is appropriate and efficient for sensitivity studies, local plastic effect, and indentation estimation. It is well known that the residual stress by single shot model is not suitable for practical use. The residual stress field from multi impacts is the resultant sum of all the fields by repeated and progressive impacts. It is not feasible to extrapolate results from the single impact model to a practical shot peening process with multiple impacts. Therefore, this research attempts to conduct a microscale modeling to study the shot peening effects of aluminum alloy responds to single and multiple impacts. First, a single shot impact model, representing single shot peening process, has been developed for the estimation of indentations at different velocities. The numerical simulations has been performed with the finite element software code LS-DYNA. The validations of the numerical simulations has been made from experimentally measured surface roughness data. Once the finite element code of single shot peening model is validated, additional numerical models are developed to simulate multiple shot peening process, using multiple impact shots. The multiple impact model are developed for the estimation of the residual stress field.

The shot peening process is largely used for the surface treatment and forming. The residual stress distribution developed within material may induce distortion of the component. The residual stress formed during the shot peening process is simulated numerically. The elastic-plastic constitutive model is adopted to describe the plastic behavior of the target material. The influence of shot peen speed on residual stress and deformation distribution is discussed.
