Finite element modelling of residual stresses due to shot peening

Shot peening is a surface enhancement process used to improve the fatigue strength of metals by introducing beneficial compressive residual stresses on the surface. Shot peening is widely used in a number of industrial applications, including gas turbine engines. However, the fatigue life improvemen...
