Abstract

Abstract: Surface of duralumin plate can be treated by not only laser abrasion but also bubble induced by pulse laser. The pulse laser produced two kinds of shock waves related to laser abrasion and bubble collapse. In the case of laser peening, the shock wave induced by abrasion was normally used. In the present paper, the behaviour of bubble was observed and noise was detected by the hydrophone. It was revealed that the impact induced by the bubble collapse produced by the pulse laser was stronger than that of the laser abrasion. A numerical simulation was also carried out to investigate phenomenon of bubble collapse.
