Abstract

The effects of compressive residual stress, surface roughness, microstructure hardening induced by shot peening (SP) on the fretting fatigue (FF) resistance of Ti811 titanium alloy at elevated temperature were evaluated. The results show that SP improves the FF resistance of Ti811 alloy at 350 °C, but decreases the resistance at 500 °C. Compressive residual stress is the predominant factor in improving the FF resistance of the alloy at 350 °C. Compressive residual stress induced by SP arrests crack growth. Microstructure hardening due to SP has a minor effect on FF resistance. Surface roughening induced by SP is detrimental to the FF resistance of the alloy at both 350 and 500 °C, as microcracks initiate easily in the roughened surface under these conditions.
