Abstract
Experimental investigations into shot peened ductile steel have been carried out, applying three surface finishing conditions: as machined, standard shot peening using 100% coverage and severe shot peening with 1000% coverage (high exposure time). The properties of the shot peened surfaces were examined and characterised, and specimens were then submitted to three point bending tests. The fatigue limit was determined for each case. In this way, the dependence of fatigue behaviour on initial surface finishing properties was determined, and a relationship is suggested to describe and correlate fatigue limits with initial surface properties. A phenomenological approach is proposed to characterise and to correlate qualitatively and quantitatively the influence of local shot peened surface properties on fatigue limit of treated specimens. The Crossland multiaxial failure high cycle fatigue criterion is used in this approach to model the influence of each surface property.
