AI Article Synopsis
- The presence of tensile residual stress in stainless steel can lead to various forms of damage, including fatigue and stress corrosion cracking, influenced by environmental factors and surface defects.
- Compressive residual stress can be introduced through methods like laser peening, which not only offers a high-quality surface finish but also creates deep compressive stress layers.
- This study specifically examined the effects of laser peening and aluminum coating on microstructural changes and hardness in 304L stainless steel, ultimately proposing a model for understanding these changes in welded steel.
Article Abstract
The introduction of tensile residual stress has led to the induction of damage such as fatigue, corrosion fatigue, and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) in stainless steel in association with the influence of environments, components, surface defects, and corrosive factors during its use. Compressive residual stress can be achieved through various techniques. Among several methods, laser peening can be more attractive as it creates regularity on the surface with a high-quality surface finish. However, there is very little research on heavily peened surface and cross-section of stainless steel with very deep compressive residual stress. This work focused on welding and laser peening and the influence of Al coating on the microstructural changes in 304L stainless steel. The specimen obtained by laser peening had a very deep compressive residual stress of over 1 mm and was evaluated based on microstructural and hardness analysis. Therefore, a model for microstructural change by laser peening on welded 304L stainless steel was proposed.

In this paper, homogenization heat treatment and laser shock peening (LSP) processes were successfully carried out regulate the microstructure (grain size, residual stress, and element distribution, ) of the AZ31B magnesium alloy substrate surface. Based on the regulated AZ31B magnesium alloy substrate surface, it further explored and analyzed the mechanism and influence pattern of the coupling distribution of grain size and residual stress on the intergranular corrosion susceptibility of the substrate surface. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the surface morphology, scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy (SKPFM) to observe the surface potential, zero resistance ammeter (ZRA) and scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET) to measure the galvanic current on the surface, and electrochemical tests were conducted to evaluate its surface corrosion behavior.

LSPwC is an important development of Laser shock peening (LSP) technology, and surface texturing is an effective method to improve tribological properties. The combination of these is expected to innovate a new surface texturing technology with a strengthing effect, but no one has attempted it. In this paper, a new LSPTwC technology combining them is innovatively proposed and validated on AISI 9310 steel, which is commonly used in helicopter transmission components for surface texturing.

This study investigates the effect of twinning on the corrosion behavior of AZ31B magnesium alloy using solid solution heat treatment (SHT) and laser shock peening (LSP) techniques. The corrosion characteristics are assessed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy (SKPFM), zero resistance ammeter (ZRA), scanning vibrating electrode technique (SVET), and electrochemical tests. Results indicate that the twinning region in AZ31B magnesium alloy, enriched with tensile twins induced by laser shock, demonstrates increased corrosion susceptibility.
