Shot peening is a method widely used to improve the fatigue strength of materials, through the creation of a compressive residual stress field (CRSF) in their surface layers. In the present research the gain in fatigue ...

Currently, high-strength materials, particularly AISI 4340 steel, are used in several landing gear components. Due to the high resistance to wear and corrosion required, the components are usually coating by hard chromium. ...

It is known that chromium electroplating is related to the reduction in the fatigue strength of base metal. However, chromium results in protection against wear and corrosion combined with chemical resistance and good ...

Coatings are deposited on high strength materials to improve the surface degradation resistance of several elements. As a consequence, the fatigue strength of coated materials is significantly influenced by internal residual ...

The AISI 4340 steel has been largely employed for structural purposes, which requires resistance levels with yield strength above 1400 MPa and it attains high levels of resistance in dual phase, bainitic or martensitic ...
