Abstract: Single crystal aluminum and copper of (001) and (110) orientation were shock peened using laser beam of 12 micron diameter and observed with X-ray micro-diffraction techniques based on a ...

Abstract: The response of materials after microscale laser shock peening (μLSP) was experimentally characterized and compared with the theoretical prediction from FEM analysis in microlength level. Since ...

Abstract: Electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is used to investigate crystal lattice rotation caused by plastic deformation during high-strain rate laser shock peening in single crystal aluminum and ...

Abstract: Micro-scale laser shock peening (μLSP) can potentially be applied to metallic structures in microdevices to improve fatigue and reliability performance. Copper thin films on a single-crystal silicon ...
