This article provides a broad and extensive literature survey on optimisation of shot peening process that have been developed and applied in the past decades and summarises the knowledge that has been gained and then points out the shortages of the important investigations in optimisation of shot peening process. On this basis, optimisation function is formulated and genetic algorithm is chosen to conduct the optimisation. This optimisation screens out the influential parameters and provides the weights of different parameters in terms of their influence of shot peening outputs.
