Predictive Crack Growth Technique for Laser Peening Process Development

Predictive Crack Growth Technique for Laser Peening Process Development

Laser peening (LP) has shown excellent fatigue life extension in numerous tests with typical treatments garnering 2-4 times the fatigue performance of an untreated component. Initially, large test programs were implemented to determine the best LP parameters for a given scenario, eventually being au...
