Press countersinking ( dimpling ) provides an alternative method of countersinking that prevents the formation of a knife -edge; however, its application and potential benefits to fatigue performance in GLARE are not known. This paper investigates the dimple forming process and its application to GLARE , and the resulting benefits in fatigue crack initiation life in unfilled rivet holes.
