Effect of Surface Mechanical Attrition Treatment on Torsional Fatigue Properties of a 7075 Aluminum Alloy

The effect of Surface Mechanical Attrition Treatment (SMAT) on torsional fatigue properties of a 7075 aluminum alloy was investigated. A number of fatigue samples were heat treated to increase the sensitivity of the material to SMAT. Compared with the as-machined (AM) samples, the fatigue lives of t...
