Abstract
The evolution and development of mankind has been partly possible thanks to the transformation of diverse types ofmaterials and the manipulation of their mechanical properties. This work is focused on numerical and experimentalevaluations of the improvement of the mechanical resistance of one material (AISI 316L) through the application ofstrain hardening and a residual stress field induction. Additionally, the state of the stresses in the component isdetermined by the application of the Crack Compliance Method, a destructive method based on the FractureMechanics Theory. The relevance of the work lies on the implementation of a new methodology which can be used toimprove the mechanical resistance of the component by altering the state of the mechanical properties of thismaterial. This research also demonstrates that strain hardening and induction of a residual stress field must beperformed carefully or it could result in a component susceptible to failure. In this respect, bending tests are proposedto provide tensile and compressive stress profiles and to corroborate previous history loading on the material
