An analytical model for predicting residual stress in shot peening with strain energy method

In this study a model by novel analytical approach is developed and experimentally verified for shot peening residual stress distribution. The residual stress field induced by single shot impact is calculated by using Glinka-Molski energy-based method and kinematic hardening model. The formulation of the compressive residual stress (CRS) distribution is often based on plane strain or plane stress. It can be determined from the derived relation presented in this paper, the final residual stress in the full coverage conditions is the average of the two strain and stress plane expressions proposed by previous researchers. The distribution of residual stress is one of the key differences between the profiles produced by the results of the current model. There is a significant distinction between surface residual stress and maximum CRS, because the CRS profile near the surface is more curved compared to profiles obtained in earlier analytical models. The experimental data obtained by XRD analysis indicate the correctness and precision of the current model. Another goal of this study is to increase the fatigue life of GTD-450 stainless steel by shot peening at two different peening intensities. The fatigue life of samples were obtained by rotary bending test. Analytical results that confirmed by experimental findings shown bigger maximum compressive residual stresses occurred in higher shot peening intensities. This incident can improved fatigue life by deeper plastically deformed layer.
