Abstract:  
A method for setting a shot-peening process condition includes a step of obtaining, for each of a plurality of peening conditions for a first combination as a combination of a shot peening processing apparatus and media, a saturation time based on a saturation curve indicating a change in an arc height value of an Almen strip against a projection time. The method includes a step of determining a first optimum peening condition corresponding to the first combination based on a the saturation time.
