In order to study the application of laser cladding and laser shock processing (LSP) combinatorial treatment technology, the laser cladding samples of TC4 titanium alloy was shocked by pulse laser, then the surface residual stress, the fatigue life were compared with those without LSP in this paper. High cycle tension-compression fatigue tests were carried out in laser cladding titanium alloy before and after LSP treated. The results indicate that LSP treatment can improve the high cycle fatigue endurance limit of laser cladding titanium alloy effectively. The nano-crystal grained surface layer with residual compressive stress makes great contributions to the improvement in fatigue properties of titanium alloy.

The aim of this article is to analyze the residual stresses field in a TC4 titanium alloy blade by laser shock processing (LSP).LSP is a new surface processing technology, it uses the laser shock wave to act on the surface of the target and form residual compressive stresses field. The ABAQUS software is applied to simulate the LSP of TC4 titanium alloy blade, and the distributions of the residual stresses field are analysed.After single LSP,the maximum value of residual stress on the surface is 309 MPa.The residual stresses on the surface increase first and then decrease.The residual stresses at the depth continue decreasing with the increase of the depth.After multiple LSP,the maximum value of residual stress on the surface is increased and plastically affected depth is increased.

Ultrasonic fatigue tests of TC4 titanium alloy equiaxed I, II and bimodal I, II obtained by different forging processes were carried out in the range from 105 to 109 cycles using 20 kHz three-point bending. The results showed that the S-N curves had different shapes, there was no traditional fatigue limit, and the bimodal I had the best comprehensive fatigue performance. The fracture morphology was analyzed by SEM, and it was found that the fatigue cracks originated from the surface or subsurface facets, showing a transgranular quasi-cleavage fracture mechanism. EDS analysis showed that the facets were formed by the cleavage of primary α grains, and the fatigue cracks originated from the primary α grain preferred textures, rather than the primary α grain clusters. From the microstructure perspective, the reasons for better equiaxed high-cycle-fatigue properties and better bimodal ultra-high-cycle-fatigue properties were analyzed. The bimodal I fatigue life prediction based on energy was also completed, and the prediction curve was basically consistent with the experimental data.

AbstractTi-17 titanium alloy was treated by laser shock processing (LSP) and the high-frequency fatigue properties were evaluated. The fatigue fracture and the microstructures were observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The result shows that the average fatigue life of the LSP sample increases 2.62 times at maximum stress 300 MPa under stress ratio is 0.1. The micro-hardness of the samples subjected to LSP increases 20 % compared with the basic material. The proliferation and tangles of dislocations of Ti-17 occurs and the density of dislocation increases after LSP treatment. The high dislocation density of LSP impacts changes the initiation of crack from corner to subsurface, and hinders the crack extension, thus increases the fatigue performance of the Ti-17.

A plasma sound wave detection method of laser shock processing (LSP) technology is proposed. Speciments of Ni-base superalloy are used in this paper. A convergent lens is used to deliver 1.2 J, 10 ns laser pulses by a Q-switch Nd:YAG laser, operating at 1 Hz. The influence of the laser density to the shock wave is investigated in detail for two different wavelength lasers. Constant amplitude fatigue data are generated in room environment using notch specimens tested at an amplitude of vibration 2.8 mm and first-order flextensional mode. The results show that LSP is an effective surface treatment technique for improving the high cycle fatigue performance of Ni-base superalloys having a factor of 1.62 improvement in fatigue life.
