Abstract

Effects of shot peening on fatigue properties of Zr-based amorphous matrix composite containing ductile crystalline particles were investigated, and fatigue processes were analyzed and compared with those of an as-cast composite. The microstructural analysis results of the shot-peened composite surface indicated that the deformation and surface flexion were observed as the shot-peening time or pressure increased. The compressive residual stress formed on the shot-peened surface was about the half of the ultimate tensile strength, and was not varied much with shot-peening time or pressure. The fatigue limit and fatigue ratio of the shot-peened composite were considerably higher than those of the as-cast composite. This was because the compressive residual stress formed by the shot peening induced the initiation of fatigue cracks at the specimen interior, instead of the specimen surface, thereby leading to the enhanced fatigue limit and fatigue life.
