摘要：To study the effect of different milled surfaces on shot peening surface integrity (roughness, residual stress, hardness, and microstructure), research on the change of surface integrity is carried out using the same shot peening process for different milling surfaces of 7055-T77 aluminum alloy. Surface integrity measurements, fatigue fracture analysis, and fatigue life tests are conducted to reveal the effect of surface integrity on crack initiation and fatigue life. The results show that shot peening can reduce the dispersion and instability of surface integrity brought by milling processing, although it increases the surface roughness; the maximum residual compressive stress and depth of residual stress layer increase significantly after shot peening, and the residual stress and hardening distribution are very good; larger surface roughness and irregular surface scratches of milling samples before shot peening easily lead to cracks and gouges produced on shot peening surface.
