Isabel Huther, Edouard Daniel - 01/11/2011 - RC Fatigue Design…

The commission XIII of the International Institute of Welding published in 2007 a document called “recommendations for fatigue design of welded joints and components”. It presents various processes to improve fatigue life after welding. Shot peening is well known to improve fatigue life of metallic components, including welded joints and components, but it has never been properly qualified for the IIW recommendation. In order to include the benefits of shot peening in this paper, Metal Improvement Company together with Cetim Senlis, started the procedure to qualify it.
