Abstract
Shot Peening is a practical and useful process that is widely used to improve the quality of metal parts and structures.
The equipment required, and the measurement of the peening conditions, are easily handled by factory personnel.
The results of peening are often quite dramatic, and are indicated by fatigue testing of the part, and by laboratory analysis of the residual level of compressive forces present in a peened part.
