Abstract:  
Does your organization have a specific shot peening need or concern? The Center for Surface Engineering and Enhancement (CSEE) at Purdue University can provide the research and support you need to advance your shot peening program. The vision of Purdue University is to be the leading industry-university research alliance for the metal surface finishing industry. The goals of CSEE are to serve consortium members’ needs, establish a knowledge base, and educate the future leaders of the industry. The research capabilities of CSEE are available to companies and government agencies. Pre-competitive research is available to member groups as well as specific and proprietary research for individual organizations. The program offers access to the test equipment, research staff, and disciplines most companies do not have.
