Burnishing and peening machines impart compressive residual stresses, which improves fatigue strength and corrosion resistance. These surface enhancement machines deform and strengthen a metal surface ...
Peening shot and beads are small metal balls or glass beads that are used to impact compressive stresses into part surfaces and to deburr sharp edges without removing material. Induced compressive ...
This research area includes numerical and experimental investigation of machining (turning, milling, drilling, EDM, and welding) of difficult-to-machine materials, numerical and experimental ...
MD&A performed inspection, replacement, and repairs for various GE® steam turbine control components for a US-based customer. The extensive and varied list included valves, actuators, spring cans, ...
The standard Honda six-speed transmission is strengthened by high-intensity shot peening, with a Limited Slip differential added to help put the power to the pavement. Chassis modifications ...
