HUNTSVILLE, Alabama -- Until recently, the process of shot peening metal to make the surface more durable and to extend the fatigue life of mechanical components was a black science. Today you need ...
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institutes for Mechanics of Materials IWM and Production Systems and Design Technology IPK in Germany have developed Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institutes for ...
Shot peening is viewed as a process involving multiple and progressively repeated impact. The residual stress field under each impact interacts with similarly produced neighbouring fields to finally ...
