Analysis of residual stress fields in aerospace materials after laser peening

Fatigue is one of the main failure mechanisms in engineering. Mechanical surface treatments are being widely used to reduce the incidence of fatigue failures. A new surface treatment, laser shock peening, or laser peening (LP) is being widely studied especialJy in the aerospace industry. LP-induced...
