PT Journal AU Wang, A Duan, S Zhang, W Li, F TI Process Optimisation for Orthogonal Testing of Shot Peening Based on Secondary Development of ABAQUS SO Manufacturing Technology Journal PY 2025 BP 252 EP 264 VL 25 IS 2 DI 10.21062/mft.2025.027 DE ABAQUS secondary development; Orthogonal test method; Shot peening modeling; Surface texture; Residual compressive stresses AB This study centers on 7B50 aluminium alloy. The intention is to reduce the pre-treatment and post-treatment times of the shot peening model. By comparing and analyzing different process parameters, the best combination of peening solutions can be obtained. The pre-processing is implemented through a GUI interactive interface. Post-processing is carried out by using Python for secondary development in ABAQUS. Orthogonal test method is employed for post-processing analysis of shot peening simulations under various process conditions. The results are evaluated by using a weighted composite scoring method to determine the depth of the residual compressive stress layer on the workpiece surface, the surface residual compressive stress, and the extreme deviation of the maximum residual compressive stress value after shot peening. The combined influence degree of shot peening process parameters such as impact speed, projectile diameter and impact angle is determined. The optimal combination of shot peening process parameters is analyzed and verified through simulation. ER
