A repaired article includes a body extending between a first side and a second side. The body has a repair section with an associated thickness between the first side and the second side. The repair section includes regions of plastic deformation distributed through the thickness. A gas turbine engine including the body is also disclosed.

This invention concerns a burnishing head for smooth rolling of the ring-shaped flat end faces (3, 4) at the thrust bearing of crankshafts by means of two cylindrical burnishing rollers (1, 2) which are arranged to be rotated and are side by side in parallel to each other within a burnishing head housing (12) that is pivotable about its longitudinal axis (20) to reach its the working position. Each burnishing roller (1, 2) is pivoted in a cage (10, 11) which is provided in the burnishing head housing (12) with low play (13) and lateral relocatability.

A device and methods are provided for deep rolling. In one embodiment, a deep rolling tool for applying compressive stress with rolling elements includes a fork having a base section and a plurality of fork arms, each fork arm extends outwardly from the base section and the fork arms are separated from one another to form an opening. The deep rolling tool may also include rolling elements, wherein each rolling element is mounted at the distal end of a fork arm, and the rolling elements are configured to apply a compressive stress to articles received by the deep rolling tool.

A device for electromechanically assisted roller burnishing (EMRB) may comprise: a roller burnishing tool with exactly one current-leading roller burnishing element for burnishing a workpiece, wherein the roller burnishing element represents a first electrical contact element for electrically contacting first location of the workpiece, and a second electrical contact element for electrically contacting second location of the workpiece; wherein the first and the second electrical contact elements can be positioned at a settable spatial distance to one another, so that on moving the roller burnishing element on the workpiece, a current path in the workpiece between the first and the second contact elements is always a constant length.

A processing method for an additively manufactured article, the processing method including: accommodating an additively manufactured article containing metal and a medium made of metal in a barrel polishing device; and reducing a roughness of a surface of the additively manufactured article and applying a residual stress to the additively manufactured article by stirring the additively manufactured article and the medium, in which a surface of the medium includes a curved surface.
