- The Development of New Type Almen Strip for Measurement of Peening Intensity on Hard Shot Peening
- Year: 1992, Source: The Shot Peener magazine, Vol 06/Issue 4, Winter 1992/93
- Abstract In the hard shot peening, it has been pointed out that Almen A type strip is not proper as an index of peening effect, because the arc height measured by Almen A strip is not in good corresp...
- Shot Peening Intensity Measurement
- Year: 1992, Source: The Shot Peener magazine, Vol 06/Issue 4, Winter 1992/93
- [Excerpts from U.S. Patent 2,350,440 by J.O. Almen on Shot Blasting Test] As is well known, cold working by shot blasting improves fatigue durability of machine parts. Its effectiveness depends upon ...
- Shot Peening - Process Bridges
- Year: 1992, Source: The Shot Peener magazine, Vol 06/Issue 3, Fall 1992
