The effect of shot peening on fatigue and fretting-fatigue of aluminium alloys

Plain-fatigue and fretting-fatigue tests have been carried out on the two peak-aged, high-strength aluminium alloys, 7010 and 8090, in the unpeened and shot peened conditions. Shot peening produced a highly deformed surface containing many deep dimples and folds from which fatigue cracks rapidly in...
