Abstract:

This paper investigates the effects of laser shock processing (LSP) on the fatigue crack growth rates (FCGRs) of 2024 T62 aluminium alloy and the feasibility of LSP used as crack arrest technology. The fatigue crack growth test results show that the FCGRs of 2024 T62 aluminium alloy are retarded significantly after LSP, which reveals that arresting crack by LSP is pratical.

Key words: laser shock processing, fat igue cr ack growth, cra ck ar rest, aluminium alloy
