フェムト秒レーザー駆動衝撃波を利用した表面改質 －ドライレーザーピーニングによる疲労特性改善－

抄録

We have successfully performed femtosecond laser peening on a 2024 aluminum alloy, which was not covered with any sacrificial overlays such as a protective coating, nor using water as a plasma confinement medium during the peening treatment, in air. The femtosecond laser peening process has a great potential to be applied in various fields where conventional peening methods can not be used, as this process can be performed under ambient conditions without the use of a sacrificial overlay on the material.
