Figure 2 shows an example of the stresses achieved in two titanium alloys and compares these with the shallower compressive stress profiles produced by metal shot peening (the conventional ...

Shot peening is a mechanical processing surface treatment in which small particles are shot at the surface of a material with a level of force that causes plastic deformation. The deformation creates ...
