Abstract

As the industrial society develops rapidly, the weight reduction and high strength are demanded gradually. In case of the welded joint for the rolling stock which receives the repeat load, the structural failure can occur easily. However, if the shot peening technique is applied, the durability and the fatigue characteristics of the rolling stock will be improved because the hardness increases and the residual stress is induced. In this study, the fatigue characteristics of shot peened welled joints for the rolling stock was investigated. The crack initiation was examined and hardness was also evaluated. the results show that the fatigue characteristics of welded joints was improved.
