Preface

Laser shock processing, or laser shock peening (LSP), is the process of hardening or strengthening metal using a powerful laser. It could generate a layer of residual compressive stress on a surface of metallic materials and alloys that is several times deeper than that attainable from conventional shot peening treatments (shot peening), which has been successfully applied to improve fatigue performance of metallic components. LSP is a new surface modification technology, which uses high strength impact wave of the interaction process between high power density (GW/cm2) lasers and materials to generate residual compressive stress and high-density dislocation, and improves the mechanical properties of metal effectively, especially the metal materials of hardness, residual stress distribution, and resist fatigue life. When the pressure of high strength impact shockwave exceeds the dynamic yield strength of the metal, the shock wave would induce severe plastic deformation in the surface layer of the metals and alloys. Since laser could be easily directed to fatigue-critical areas, LSP is expected to be widely applicable for improving the fatigue properties of alloys. LSP also has the obvious advantages including no contact and heataffected zone, excell
