“…Nevertheless, the strength enhancing efficiency was not noteworthy when the strengthened material was serviced at medium or high temperature. The relaxation of residual stress can be deemed as one of the main contributors to the little improvement of service properties [24,25]. Besides this, there is also more important factor causing the inapparent strength enhancing efficiency.…”

“…The results showed that LP is an effective surface treatment technique that can induce beneficial compressive residual stress and microstructures, such as a high density of dislocation, mechanical twins, and refined grains, which eventually retards fatigue crack growth. However, LP-induced beneficial effects on fatigue properties have shown to be released at high temperature and cycle loading, consequently limiting its application [11][12][13].…”

Abstract:The aim of this paper is to study the effects of laser peening (LP) on the residual stress distribution and microstructure evolution of AA 6061-T6 under different temperatures. A laser peening experiment was conducted on the square-shape samples by using single spot and 50% overlap shock. Three-dimensional surface morphologies of treated samples were observed. The influence of peening temperature on the distribution of compressive residual stress was analyzed. An optical microscope (OM) and a transmission electron microscope (TEM) were employed to observe the microstructure evolution of the samples before and after LP. The results indicate that, as the peening temperature increases, the micro-hardness increases first and then decreases. The LP process induces high-amplitude compressive residual stress on the surface at different temperatures even if the compressive residual stress slightly reduces with increases in temperature. The maximum compressive residual stress affected layer depth is about 0.67 mm, appearing at a temperature of 160 • C. The OM test revealed that the grain size was significantly decreased after warm laser peening (WLP) and that the average value of grain size was reduced by 50%. The TEM test shows that more dislocation tangles were produced in AA 6061-T6 after WLP; compared to the LP process, the precipitate-dislocation interaction can benefit both strength and ductility for AA 6061-T6, thus enhancing the mechanical properties of the material.

“…The purely thermal loading condition is simulated by a convection boundary [15,16], where q is heat flux across the boundary, h is heat transfer coefficient of air, which is 110 W/(m 2°C ) for natural convection in this simulation, T is the initial temperature of the specimen, which is taken to be ambient temperature, and T ∞ is the imposed heating temperature.…”

“…Ren et al [14] found that the lower residual stress relaxation of LSP 6061-T651 aluminum alloy in the temperature range 25-600°C is induced by the pinning effect of precipitations on dislocation movement. Zhou et al [15,16] investigated the effect of exposure time and temperature on the stress relaxation in LSP IN718 and Ti-6Al-4V. They found that residual stress released mainly during the initial period of exposure and the relaxation magnitude increased with the increase of applied temperature.…”

The compressive residual stress fields at ambient temperature and stress relaxation at elevated temperatures of nickel-based alloy K417 by laser shock processing (LSP) were investigated by the finite element analysis and experimental method. A temperature and strain rate-dependent plasticity model of Johnson-Cook (JC) material model was utilized to investigate the residual stress evolution under LSP and thermal loads. The residual stress distributions of original and processed specimens were measured by the X-ray diffraction method. Zener-Wert-Avrami function was employed to study the thermal relaxation process of LSP K417, and the simulated results have a significant agreement with the experimental data. Specifically, most of stress relaxation occurs before 30 min of exposure, and the relaxation amplitude increases with the rise of applied temperature. The activation enthalpy of the relaxation process for LSP K417 obtained from simulation and experiment are determined to be 2.86 and 2.85 eV respectively.
