Abstract:  
Abstract Ricochet peening may be used in cases where it is impossible to obtain complete visual coverage by direct impact. AMS-S-13165 refers to this as reflected shot stream. This study illustrates the influence on the shot stream reflected angle and impact intensity as a function of material hardness.
