R. Menig et al., Depth profiles of macro residual stresses in thin shot peened steel platesdetermined by X-ray and neutron diffraction, SCR MATER, 45(8), 2001, pp. 977-983
The aim of the present work is to clarify, whether the near surface residua
l stresses induced by surface treatments like shot peening are balanced by
low-level tensile residual stresses all over the core of the specimen or by
relatively high tensile residual stresses in a thin layer adjacent to the
surface layer. Therefore X-ray and neutron diffraction analyses were perfor
med and evaluated. (C) 2001 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Scie
