Abstract

This disclosure is directed at methods for mechanical property improvement in a metallic alloy that has undergone one or more mechanical property losses as a consequence of forming an edge, such as in the formation of an internal hole or an external edge. Methods are disclosed that provide the ability to improve mechanical properties of metallic alloys that have been formed with one or more edges placed in the metallic alloy by a variety of methods which may otherwise serve as a limiting factor for industrial applications.
