Abstract
Micro Shockwaves are induced in laser shock peening and their effect on metal samples is presented. Laser shock peening produces maximized internal compressive stress on metal surfaces. This research evaluated the effects of micro Shockwaves from laser shock peening with a pulsed Nd:YAG laser on steel samples, through the analysis of the mechanical properties of the samples. In the experiments, a piezo material was applied to measure the micro Shockwaves and the hardnesses and micro tensile strengths of the samples were evaluated.
