  2. Ultrasonic impact treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrasonic_impact_treatment

    This harmonic resonance is performed at a carefully calibrated frequency, to which metals respond very favorably, resulting in compressive residual stress, stress relief and grain structure improvements. Depending on the desired effects of treatment a combination of different frequencies and displacement amplitude is applied.

  3. Shot peening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_peening

    Shot peening is a cold working process used to produce a compressive residual stress layer and modify the mechanical properties of metals and composites. It entails striking a surface with shot (round metallic, glass, or ceramic particles) with force sufficient to create plastic deformation .

  4. Peening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peening

    In metallurgy, peening is the process of working a metal's surface to improve its material properties, usually by mechanical means, such as hammer blows, by blasting with shot (shot peening), focusing light (laser peening), or in recent years, with water column impacts (water jet peening) and cavitation jets (cavitation peening).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Residual_stress

    The thermal method involves changing the temperature of the entire part uniformly, either through heating or cooling. When parts are heated for stress relief, the process may also be known as stress relief bake. [13] Cooling parts for stress relief is known as cryogenic stress relief and is relatively uncommon.

    The belt is run at a speed of 15 to 20 ft/min to start with, but this may be increased if the levelling function is satisfactory. The faster the belt runs, the less effective the peening process becomes. [3] The process starts with a low pressure (20 PSI), and work up in steps of 10 PSI until a noticeable effect is seen in the belt curve.

    The ICD-10 Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-PCS) is a US system of medical classification used for procedural coding.The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, the agency responsible for maintaining the inpatient procedure code set in the U.S., contracted with 3M Health Information Systems in 1995 to design and then develop a procedure classification system to replace Volume 3 of ICD-9-CM.
