Popis: Fatigue characteristics of A7075-T651 aluminum material were studied with surface treatment of shot peening. The fatigue life was characterized by two fatigue testing methods, ultrasonic fatigue test (UFT, 20 kHz) and the rotary-bending fatigue test (RFT, 53 Hz). The fatigue life improvement was confirmed by rotary bending fatigue tester. However, the surface modification effects were hardly observed by UFT method. The RFT results validate that the fatigue properties of RFT show a fine congruence regardless of the test machine types. The results of hardness, compressive residual stress, fatigue strength, and mechanical properties of specimen were improved by shot peening.
