Abstract:
Hardness number is a resistance stress for micro-plastic deformation. It may be affected by the residual stress or distributed stress. This paper describes the relation
between the hardness and the stress in the affected layer produced by shot peening. The material of the specimen is carbon steel (0.45%C) and the elastic stress field was
induced by bending and tension of the specimen, and residual stress was induced by shot peening. The hardness was measured by micro-vickers hardness tester and the stress
was measured by X-ray diffraction. Shot peening was performed under the following conditions; diameter of shot D mm: 2.2, velocity of shot V m/s: 35, Peening time : full
coverage time. The results are as follows; (1) Hardness increases in compressive stress and decrease in tensile stress. (2) The maximum change in hardness number is -20
(HV) and the ratio of decrease is -9.8 %, wherein tensile stress increment is 460 MFa. (3) The influence on the hardness of the residual compressive stress induced by shot
peening is the same to the elastic compressive stress of bending. (4) The residual stress distribution and hardness distribution produced by shot peening are changed by the
thickness of specimen under the same shot peening condition.
