Determination of Optimal Shot Peen Forming Patterns Using the Theory of Non-Euclidean Plates

We show how a theoretical framework developed for modeling nonuniform growth can model the shot peen forming process. Shot peen forming consists in bombarding a metal panel with multiple millimeter-sized shots that induce local bending of the panel. When applied to different areas of the panel, peen...
