Laser Shock Processing of Titanium Alloy Blade and FEM Simulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

The aim of this article is to analyze the residual stresses field in a TC4 titanium alloy blade by laser shock processing (LSP).LSP is a new surface processing technology, it uses the laser shock wave to act on the surface of the target and form residual compressive stresses field. The ABAQUS software is applied to simulate the LSP of TC4 titanium alloy blade, and the distributions of the residual stresses field are analysed.After single LSP,the maximum value of residual stress on the surface is 309 MPa.The residual stresses on the surface increase first and then decrease.The residual stresses at the depth continue decreasing with the increase of the depth.After multiple LSP,the maximum value of residual stress on the surface is increased and plastically affected depth is increased.
