Abstract:
Abstract: Ultrasonic shot peening (USP) is a mechanical surface treatment process used to
enhance the fatigue life of high-added value components. During the process the shots are
accelerated by a mechanical actor stimulated with a frequency between 15-40 kHz. In contrast
to conventional shot peening (CSP) the shot velocities are lower and the mass of the shots are
higher. For optimization of the process parameter without large experimental effort it is
necessary to describe the condition in the surface layer (residual stress, surface topology) after
the process depending on the process parameter. For this it is essential that the stochastic
distribution of the shots and their impact velocities are known. During this work a multiple-step
numerical simulation was performed to calculate first the distribution and velocity of the shots
and use this information in the second step to apply an FE-analysis on a limited area to calculate
the surface characteristics. An advanced hardening model was implemented to describe the
effect of nonlinear combined isotropic-kinematic hardening and strain rate dependent yield at
once. Subsequently, the numerically determined residual stresses were compared with
experimental measurements by X-ray and synchrotron diffraction.
