Cavitation normally causes severe damage in hydraulic machinery such as pumps and turbines by the impact produced by cavitation bubbles collapsing. Although cavitation is known as a factor of erosion, Soyama et al. succeeded in utilizing impacts of cavitation bubble collapsing for surface modification by controlling cavitating jet in the same way as shot peening. The local plastic deformation caused by cavitation impact enhances the fatigue strength of metallic materials, and the surface modification technique utilizing cavitation impact is called “cavitation peening (CP)”. It is well known that the peening improves fatigue strength by introducing compressive residual stress on the surface, but little attention has been paid to the behavior of fatigue crack growth of the material which was modified by CP. In the present study, the fatigue behavior of austenite stainless steel with and without CP was evaluated by a plate bending fatigue test, and the results revealed that the compressive residual stress introduced by CP suppresses fatigue crack growth rate by 70 % compared to that without CP.

Because of the general problem of the welding workpiece such as fatigue fracture caused by tensile residual stress lead to initial and propagation crack in the fusion zone. Thus, the mechanical surface treatment of deep rolling on Gas Tungsten Arc Welded (GTAW) surfaces of AISI 316L was studied. Deep rolling (DR) is a cold working process to induce compressive residual stress in the surface layer of the workpiece resulting in hardening deformation which increased surface hardness, and smooth surface that inhibit crack growth and improve fracture strength of materials. The present study focuses on compressive residual stress at the surface of stainless steel AISI 316L butt welded joint of GTAW. The three parameters of DR process were used; pressure 150 bar, rolling speed 400 mm/min, and step over 1.0 mm. The residual stresses analysis by X-ray diffraction with sin2Ψ method at 0, 5, 10, and 20 mm from the center of the welded bead. The results showed that the DR process on the welded of GTAW induce the minimum compressive residual stress-408.6 MPa and maximum-498.1 MPa in longitudinal direction. The results of transverse residual stress in minimum and maximum are 43.7 MPa and-34.8 MPa respectively. The FWHM of DR both longitudinal and transverse direction were increased in the same trend. Furthermore, the microhardness after DR treatment on workpiece surface layer higher than GTAW average 0.4 times.

The surface of 304 stainless steel was processed by laser shock wave, its surface micro-structures were observed with SEM, and residual stresses on its surface were measured with X-ray diffraction (XRD) stress tester, and the production mechanism of residual stress was analyzed. The experiment of stress corrosion in 25% NaCl aqueous solution was finished, the crack sensitivity of stress corrosion in NaCl aqueous solution was researched, and the effects of LSP on stress corrosion resistance were analyzed. The results shown that the refined hardened-layer is acquired on the surface of 304 stainless steel by LSP, and compressive residual stress has greatly increased, which improve availably the performances of stress corrosion resistant. The time of appearing cracks is inverse ratio with compressive residual stress, and LSP decreases effectively its stress corrosion cracks.

A 3D finite element model is established to simulate the ultrasonic shot peening process by using a finite element software ABAQUS. The residual stress distribution of the AISI 304 stainless steel induced by ultrasonic shot peening (USP) is predicted by finite element analysis. Ultrasonic shot peening (USP) process can cause a compressive residual stress layer on the surface of the material. During the simulation, many factors, e.g., ultrasonic shot peening duration, initial residual stress, hourglass, etc., are taken into consideration for the purpose of optimizing the process. The simulation results show that ultrasonic shot peening can produce a compressive residual stress layer on the surface of the material even if there is initial residual tensile stress (250MPa) and the longer peening duration. The residual stress of simulation were compared with the experiment data which were obtained under the same ultrasonic shot peening parameters and have a good agreement with the measurement values by X-ray diffraction method. In conclusion, ultrasonic shot peening is an effective method for protecting weldments against stress corrosion cracking by introducing the compressive residual stress layer into the surface of stainless steel.

The mechanical properties of austenitic stainless steel are rarely improved by heat treatment. Shot peening is a well-known cold working process that affects thin surface of materials. By controlling the shot peening intensity and shot size, the variable mechanical properties film thickness was obtained from 0.05 mm to 0.5 mm. The damping factor and compressive residual stress are determined experimentally and forming a relation between them. It was found that damping factor in thin film surface increases with depth of deformed layer. An investigation was carried out, and it was found that the increase in damping factor was due to introduction of compressive residual stress and increased hardness due to shot peening. The paper discusses a model of changing damping properties with compressive residual stress and depth of deformed layer of austenitic stainless steel.

Indirect laser peening applied to the substrate of austenitic stainless steel with the sheet of similar material. Effects of indirect laser peening condition on the formation of the dimple and the residual stress were investigated in this paper. Shape of the dimple and distribution of the residual stress were measured by laser microscope and X-ray diffraction, respectively. It was observed by the microscope that clean substrate surface of as-received state kept after indirect laser peening because of protection by the sheet. However, fracture of sheet occurred slightly in high pulse energy condition. The diameter and the depth of the dimple by indirect laser peening increased with the increase of laser power. Efficiency of dimple formation decreased with the increase of pulse energy. Affective condition region of indirect laser peening with a combination between the substrate and the sheet of austenitic stainless steel may be limited below the laser power density of 10GW/cm2. It was confirmed that indirect laser peening induced compressive residual stress in the substrate. One of peak of compressive residual stress in residual stress distribution existed near the bottom of the dimple. Residual stress distribution which was produced by indirect laser peening may affect change of quasi bending modulus which was obtained by three-point bending test.

Austenitic stainless steel (SUS316L) was used as specimen material, and the plate specimens were deformed plastically with a wide range of strain rates (6.67×10-5~ 6.70×102/s). The residual micro-stress for each lattice plane was measured with hard synchrotron X-rays. The residual macro-stress due to tensile deformation depended on strain rate. The residual micro-stresses varied from tension to compression, depending on the diffraction elastic constant. The soft lattice plane had tensile residual stress, and the hard lattice plane had compressive residual stress. The higher the strain rate, the smaller the difference in residual micro-stresses. The residual micro-stresses of the surfaces peened with the laser-peening or water-jet-peening were examined. Both surfaces had exhibited large compressive residual stress. The residual micro-stress on the peened surfaces showed a tendency opposite to residual micro-stress due to tensile deformation.

ABSTRACT The 304L austenitic stainless steel is susceptible to deformation induced martensitic transformation. This phase transformation depends on the temperature as well as on the mode, rate and level of deformation. In this work the phases and residual stresses of a 304L TRIP steel where martensitic transformation was induced by cold rolling were investigated by X-ray diffraction XRD. The analyses were performed for different sample thicknesses. The results showed that the phase composition and the residual stresses are strongly dependent on sample thickness. All samples showed a compressive residual stress.
