    Abstract
    The present study aims to challenge the existing finite element models in terms of one of the most important practical parameters, i.e. coverage. Important models from the literature are re-simulated and their resulted treated surfaces are carefully examined. Result of this study shows that existing finite element models could not reflect the realistic coverage. A variable dimension symmetry cell is developed in order to acquire full coverage and at the same time not increasing the computational cost. This model can successfully simulate the surface nanocrystallization by severe shot peening in which the amount of coverage is much higher than conventional shot peening  

    The influence of surface nanocrystallization induced by shot peening on corrosion behavior of niti alloy

    Abstract
    Nickel-titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloys have been widely used as implant materials, due to their superior shape memory properties and similar mechanical behavior to bone tissue. The presence of nickel on the surface of nickel-titanium alloy and release of this ion in the body environment will result in some allergic reactions. In current study, we used shot pinning process to produce nanocrystalline nickel-titanium alloy with increased corrosion resistance. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and atomic force microscopy were employed to investigate the surface features of samples. The quantitative chemical analysis of NiTi and modified...

    Abstract
    Severe shot peening (SSP) process is widely used for surface nanocrysallization of a bulk material that demonstrates excellent mechanical properties compared with its coarse-grained equivalents. In this study, a plastically deformed surface was produced with nanostructured grains on different materials of AISI 1045, 1050, and 1060 carbon steels by means of SSP. Shot peening was applied with a wide range of Almen intensities and coverages. Optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscope observations, and X-ray diffraction analysis were employed to analyze the mechanism of grain refinement...
